Day in brief

  • If I graph the demand for my work and supply that I can offer, that won't look anything like the graph from economics class. Parallels. #
  • What? HTML5 video soon? There are still many who didn't manage to make their videos work in Flash properly. And that what? 10 years? #
  • I am watching second season of Mad Men. It's awesome! Not House MD awesome, but in a totally different way. Like a really long movie. #
  • Limassol got some kind of heat wave. Yesterday +35C all of a sudden. Don't know what today will bring. It's not fun. #

Date Night

Last Friday I went to see “Date Night“.  Actually, I went to see another movie, but I was confused by the scheduled and arrived at incorrect time.  So instead of going back home decided to see this one.  Even though I didn’t particularly liked the trailer and didn’t expect much of this movie.

It wasn’t exceptional by any means – the story was average, the acting was average, there were plenty of things we’ve seen before in other movies.  But somehow it still made me laugh a lot and left me with a couple of things to think about.

Good Friday evening entertainment altogether.  4 out of 5.

Topsy – a search engine powered by tweets

I came across Topsy – a search engine powered by tweets.  Even though you can search Twitter and see tweets in your Google search results, it looks like Topsy has a place of its own.  Clean interface, tweets and image search, only a few sources, trending topics – all make it a tiny little cool toy.  Check it out!
