The improved design of the hottest "new" Social Media appendix at the moment, Google Plus, took me by a pleasant surprise. After a few seconds of contrariety, taking the tour and exploring it in depth for a good few minutes, I felt good. It's sleek it is colored, it's attractive, it offer a better perspective, I don't have too many words to praise it. With it's multi-column view and the possibility to renew the stream flow yourself, it definitively improved. I don't believe anyone who follows … [Read more...]

Google Changes
As if the coders are switching jobs between the two Social Media monsters, Google+ changed the "look" of your header profile, "cover photo" or whatever they call it. It is huge and covers a great part of your screen, especially if you use some more toolbars than usual. I've made already the mistake to accept the switching to the "new profile", somehow in a hurry, not taking in consideration that it was irreversible. I thought that usually the changes are for your own good, Google being so much … [Read more...]

How Tom Anderson and DeWolfe sold and how Facebook beat myspace, and of course, the ultimate drop, the connection to myspace through facebook. Brrr...

It forced me to learn HTML, it was funny and made me a lot of valuable friends I still treasure. … [Read more...]
Pinterest Tricks
Looking for a Pin It button, I found Chykalophia Design. You notice the button right after the post title and somehow asymmetrically. Why do I have it there, and not aligned with the others? Because it was created by Ari Krzyzek from the above mentioned site, and is a combination between the pinmarklet (a bookmarking device one put on the browser's bookmarking toolbar) and a png button. It's not a plugin, it is a piece of code which let you to choose the picture to pin, every time. There … [Read more...]
