I mean, you could puke because of IE8 for sure, but to make an ad to support the idea… :-P > I’m not really sure that this ad is from M$ but, what the hell, it’s disgustingly funny! :D

I feel ashamed. The Guardian a week ago released this article explaining, in a “reasonably informed way” why “nothing happens after all the scandals in which the Psycho-Nano is involved”. I say “reasonably informed way” because, normally, newspapers that are not Italian don’t really get what the man is: to understand Berlusconi you need to understand what Italy became today. In any case, in this situations, I feel ashamed of being Italian. And doesn’t matter “that I’m not him”: I’m Italian, Italy is my Country, but it’s like seeing a beautiful woman destroying herself with alcohol, unable to understand when she should stop.

I’m with a bit of proudness that I say that in July the HTC Hero, a new Android-based smart-phone, is going to be launched. HTC Hero - First Look For UK, Orange will be the operator to sell it. As far as I know, details are not being disclosed yet. HTC has developed this new UI/UX (User Interface/User eXperience) on the top of Android, called “HTC Sense”. Some says, on the top of Android (2.0 codename “Donut”). I personally don’t know if it’s true: if it is soon we will have it in the Android branch. But something tells me that this is going to be ONLY available on Android HTC phones. It’s too much of a “added value” for HTC to give it out to everyone else. Another most notable thing, this will be the first phone on the market to have full support for Adobe Flash (not just Flash Lite ;) ). Adobe announces it here. More videos about this AMAZING UI after the jump. ...

While Twitter is down (O_o), I decided to put this here: Linus Torvalds Facts. LOL! :D

I found this page that sends you via email the right “Profile” for iPhone 3.0 to enable tethering. No Jailbrake or Unlocking required: it just works. After you install the profile, enable Tethering and follow the instructions on the phone. If you decide to use Bluetooth, after you pair the device with your laptop, just configure it as “network port” (on Mac it will be almost automagic!). Performances are pretty good, I must say. ...

This morning, while I was reading the Daniele Luttazzi’s blog and his series of post called “La Palestra” (“The Gym” in English), I decided that was worth it to translate some of the best I read. “The Gym”? Luttazzi publishes satyric jokes on his blog, from a collection of ones that he receives from his fans. But why? Because I think some of them are good even in English. Italian’s latest events are being publicized on international newspapers lately. This makes it possible to get those jokes. ...

1-Click to go from 2.7 to 2.8: BOOM!!! ;)

Last episode of the latest “Passate Parola” episode of the great Marco Travaglio. I wish it was in English: it would simplify a lot the life of who would like to understand the “Berlusconi’s Story”. There are Italian subtitles though: it could be useful for someone that is able to read Italian at lease.

Just a quick one. First day of the Google I/O 2009 in San Francisco (CA). Apart from a lot of informative and interesting topics and breakout sessions (I mainly focused on App Engine and Android), I came back at home full of: Stickers T-shirt Google Chrome comic paperback version A brand new “Google I/O device”, that is a black HTC Magic sim and firmware unlocked for developers + Android Market with Paid Apps support + Amazon Mp3 store +…!!!. How much? For FREE, of course!!! ...
