Thu, 25 Feb 2010 09:43:25 +0000

I have the poster of “Das Mensch als Industriepalat” created by Fritz Kahn in 1926 hanging in my office for several years now. I can never get enough of looking at the tiny details and amazing vision of this. Today I was exposed to an amazing work done to create an animation out of the [...]

Or even worse

Funny quote from a Ruby on Rails installation guide: “Incase you have problem installing using this command because you are currently on the plane or in the desert waging war against terror or may be worse behind a restrictive corporate proxy server, you need to download the gem files and install them individually.” I love funny installation [...]

iPhones, Faxes and BPM

Last week the Apple iPhone finally made “ali’yah” and is now available for sell in Israel. Of course, all the early adopters already had iPhones they brought from overseas, but that’s besides the point. The point is that all the banks, newspapers and media channels are stampeding to get an “iPhone application”. If only we have [...]

So, the Hard-disk on my SAP laptop died. For the third time in 6 months. I have a small suspicion that the Good Ole’ T42 is about to reach the big scrapyard in the sky, but with the current offerings from our IT department, I’ll stick to my IBM workhorse as long as I can. [...]

While I already twitted this picture, I think it deserves a more permanent mention: For the non-hebrew speakers among you (you really should learn it, you know) – the sign says: “Type in Google 50 years reunion for Ort Kfar Saba and Register” (Ort is national school network).

I was asked by my colleague Dafna to give the team a brief introduction what is Twitter and how it may become relevant to our Enterprise customers. With Salesforce.com , SAP and every joe-enterprise-vendor announcing ’support for Twitter’ in their upcoming release, we wanted to take a step back and try to understand some of [...]

MP3 TCO

For the first time in my life, I’ve bought an MP3 player. I’ve had some before which were crappy giveaways which I’ve gotten as some promotional thingies, but my (slowly) growing hobby on two wheels demanded that I get me a new thing. The requirements were simple: Small Have a clip Nice design. Naturally, I started with the iPods. [...]
