I have been out of the office for two days. Went to a very nice wedding, will post pictures next Monday. And I am still recieving feedback about the important matter I commented in my last post. God I am tired. Anyone has an aspirin?

Did someone said that specializing was a good way to make business? Well, here is the most specialized matchmaking site I have ever seen (so far). And yes, I find it funny. <important matter> By the way. I have a question for all you loyal readers out there (heh, like I had): should I focus the info and links I post here to something like web design? or should I stay doing just ranting with no real purpose on mind? Feedback will be very appreciated. </important matter> And on a completely different matter (today looks like it's weird day) I found one of the weirdest museums in my life: The Wooden-Nickel Museum.

Jews + Coupons + Internet = Kpons! (Kosher Print Out 'N' Save). Bizarre.

Busy day today. Look what the bastards at IMDB have done in this screenshot. I mean, it's the old 'disable your right button' javascript thingie. But what really pisses me off is the tone of the message. Since when do websites have rights over my browser?

Sometimes typographies have more uses than those they were devised for. Example. Why? because it reminds me of stuff I had forgotten somewhere in the back of my head. Who knows what can typography can do for you (I have a friend who uses typography to relieve stress). Yes. This is a very stupid post so far. Sue me. <recommendation of the week> If you live in Spain or have access to it go and see Lucia y el sexo, Julio Medem's last movie. I loved it. </recommendation of the week> And, speaking of which, cybersquatters have become more "sophisticated". Take a look at this domain. It has the name of the movie, and I bet you two beers it's not the official site. Years ago cybersquatters just put up an html with nothing but a hello in it. Now they publish dynamic flash sites. Funny, ain't it?

Say, ever wanted to get a breast augmentation? Look here for info on the subject. And don't ask me how did I got there.

Quite interesting (a bit pedantic) article on typography readability in the web. Read it here. I find it quite amusing as there are no data on how the surveys where made. Typical.

Quality designs for quality tshirts at [DERUSH�], a quality online shop. Damn expensive as well.

<drooling> I want one. </drooling>

And Mr Balmer does it again. I like the first video better, but in this one you can see how pathetic you can be when cocaine effect has faded out.

Uploaded another set of photos. Eighteen of them this time. And one of them is, probably, the best photo I've ever made.

Learn how did we became humans. A lovely flash documentary.

Do you know how to use urinals properly? Well, fear no more, there is an organization for you. Fuck Netiquette. Say hi to Bathroom Etiquette. (thanks Nitro for the link)

We talk all day long about HCI. That is supposedly Human-Computer-Interface. But shouldn't we make differences when talking about Male-Computer-Interfaces and Female-Computer-Interfaces? Example here.

Ok. This is a very intense day in terms of updates. Added a new gallery: London. 25 photographs of this city. Much better than the ones from Amsterdam if you ask me. Pay a visit.

I was talking with a colleague about how we surf the web. We patrol the web (Apatrullando la web). This concept has been nurtured by another psycho. Now, when I asked: do we have the moral authority to do this? My collague answered: Yes we do, what the fuck. That's because we have been here since before the man was man. We have seen a lot of things born and die already. Isn't he lovely? So beware boys, we are watching your webs (or gophersites).

I have done some changes to the gallery. Implemented a dumb .asp that will scout the contents of the directory and display the photos dinamically. Very silly. Really. Trust me. It's so stupid even Forrest Gump could have done it himself. And took me 2 fucking days. I am retarded, yes. Well, check it at the gallery.

Back in 1995 this was the busiest site of the web: Netscape. And Dave Titus was the responsible for creating one cool mascot for Mosaic/Netscape. He created some cool t-shirts that are, probably, collector's items. Do you have one? lucky dot-commer.

Now this is a damn funny animation. Haven't seen something that funny since "all your base are belong to us". And check out B3ta. The previous animation it's all their fault.

People are very bored. Chair skating. Today. In the Netherlands.

Thought of the day: If I had enough money I would buy all the tshirts from ThinkGeek.

Some guys have decided that porn and shops are not the only ones that can use thumbnails to preview stuff. So they have set up a thumbnailed archive of weblogs. Check it out at Screenshortstart.com.

Isn't this a glorious day? Well. No. But I have uploaded my first collection of photos to the gallery. Check it out. (not my best, but the last ones I took in Amsterdam last week) (I had better ones, but my dear sister erased 75 of them from the digital camera, by accident) My idea is to upload collections in a semi-regular basis. Keep coming for more updates. Cheers. :)

The guys from NTK, a high-tech sarcastic weekly digest have released a miriad of t-shirts for you and me. Check them out at geekstyle.co.uk. By the way. I have heard that Mars Inc. (the guys who make M&M's and such) are planning to release M&M's with dulce de leche inside of them. Anyone knows anything about this? Your truly, a dulce de leche junkie.

Because of my work I have to use Photoshop quite a lot. And it came to my mind this morning, while I was watching a beautiful blue sky, that sometimes I would like to have Photoshop's eyedropper tool to choose from colours I see in the Real Life [tm]. I know. Sounds ridiculous, but I have problems choosing colours a lot of times, and being able to choose a colour I like without having to make an aproximation would be so cool. ... Ok. I will stop now.

Porn + Internet = Money That's probably the only truth about business of the Internet Age. But, as always, most of the websites are badly designed. Sometimes you find some cool stuff. Three examples: a) Ultrafashionporn.com, a website devoted to provide people with fancy porn inspired stuff and lovely links (they are italians). b) PornoGrafics, another nicely designed portal similar to UltraFashionPorn (somehow) (but made by spanish people). c) And, finally, SuperCult.com, a Massachusets based company devoted to 'quality' porn. Note: all those sites shouldn't be viewed by under18s. Oh, and a link to one of my three fav architects of all time: Mies van der Rohe, Mr Less is more.

Madrid in August is great. No cars, no people, no nothing.... just a plain good ol' city. Hey, I can even come to my workplace using my car. And park it!

Fuck me sideways with a broomstick. A friend sent me a link this morning. It was a link to a video file. Check it out: Planet of the Apes meet Microsoft. I thought I could never see something like this, even in a company like Microsoft.

I am an ICQ user (you have to love the program, right?). Anyways, found a webpage that sells customized clothing for ICQ users like you and me. Want your own? Go get it.

Bleagh. Back from holidays. And I have a good idea: I LIKE TO PLAY. There. Now, link of the day: This is not a 404.
