That is the reason every boy writes a blog

   October 23, 2007      

Everytime I see some news like this - I feel some future in blogging (my personal):

"

Today, TechCrunch has a full-time staff of eight. This year, it hired a CEO. In August, 1.25 million people visited TechCrunch or its affiliated blogs at least once, according to comScore Inc. It brings in $240,000 per month in advertising, according to Arrington, and pulls in additional revenue from conferences and parties. Most important of all, TechCrunch is in the black.

"

and of course I think it will take me just few minutes per day to achieve this amount of money.

Today is a nice day. Some guy brought cookies to the office, saying - it is 09/11. Pitty, it was not a magic cake. But oh well - nothing is perfect.

Also I've got new Wi-Fi card and two external anthenas with some advice on how to use them. Some cd (backtrack2).

It looks like it will be nice evening :)

Internet connection - super cheap, super fast, not available

   September 10, 2007      

I am here for about a month now. The first thing after renting a flat here - I have tried to get addicted connected to the Internet. It has seemed like nice plan - 8mbits for about 20 euroes/month. I have found few Wi-Fi neighbours to connect to, found out the Internet provider which they were using and sent email to customer support asking to connect me to the Internet. Later that week I have called skyped them.

They guy told me, that there is no Internet connection in the house and I will need to wait 30 days and then they will call me back to clarify if it is possible to put a line to it or no. Also he asked if I want a phone land line.

Oh well, still enjoying free Internet for a moment and no one has contacted me again.
