eReaders vs. PC Tablets, What Would You Choose?
When the price of the Kindle Fire was announced earlier this year, my jaw dropped. I had been saving up money to buy myself an iPad for Christmas, and I was faced with a big decision. Should I stop saving and just buy myself a Kindle Fire with the money I already had set aside? [...]
Good bye Rogers… Welcome Netflix, Hulu and Direct TV
I’ve been with Rogers TV and Internet for 4 years now and yet today is the last day with Rogers. Why did I choose to cancel Rogers? The reason is obvious: the continuous ripoff I felt for 4 years – extreme prices and low quality of services. When I say law quality I’m mostly referring [...]
What you Have is NOT a Smartphone!
I really want to talk today about smartphones. Are they really smart? I honestly don’t think so. Here a few things I would like to see included with phones; things which, if included, would make them genuinely …smart :) First of all I think for a phone to be considered smart it should work based [...]
30 Minutes of Kindness
When you start to look around the world, one of the things you’ll notice is the extreme lack of courtesy in many common yet insignificant interactions with people. It can be as simple as someone being rude to their local barista because there was a minor mistake in their twenty word long coffee beverage. Or [...]
A bit about me
Stop. This article is not really, really, about me but about Front End Web Developers as a profession and the need to hire them today in the “back-end” era. What I wanted to underline in this article, short enough I hope to make you read it from A to Z but still long to have [...]

How to calibrate the Casio Pathfinder barometer
I wrote three months ago an article about how to understand the barometer readings on a Casio Pathfinder watch and now is time for making these readings more accurate. It really doesn’t matter what Casio Pathfinder model are you wearing (mine is PAG80-1V), basically it should be the same procedure in calibration the barometer to [...]
Samsung Rant problems
Samsung Rant, the missing review. I would name this article, the ugly truth about Samsung Rant if I wouldn’t know that is not entirely true. Actually a pretty like my Rant, except some small (or big?) problems I have found in this first year of using it on a daily basis. So, what’s wrong with [...]
Casio PAG-80 Pathfinder – how to read the barometer
I’ve just received my new watch, a Casio PAG-80 Pathfinder (Santa Claus gave it to me, personally :P ), which is a Pathfinder, Altimeter, Barometer, Digital Compass, solar powered digital watch. Is still missing one single feature, is not an Atomic/Waveceptor watch, feature hardly wanted but unfortunately unaffordable at this moment. So, what’s the deal? [...]
