Start my career in design :)

I always wanted to make designs!

When I entered in AIESEC I joined the marketing team because I wanted to design the posters and all the other promotion materials. So this is for all times sake! :)

I decided that I'll start designing t-shirts, mugs and other objects on www.zazzle.com. I just started yesterday, so I don't really know where this is going to end, but for sure I know this is fun. So if you want to see my first designs see details below :)

Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC?

I think everyone knows about Microsoft offer to by Yahoo for 44 Billion USD.

Publicly, Google came out against the deal, contending in a statement that the pairing, proposed by Microsoft on Friday in the form of a hostile offer, would pose threats to competition that need to be examined by policy makers around the world.

“Could Microsoft now attempt to exert the same sort of inappropriate and illegal influence over the Internet that it did with the PC?” asked David Drummond, Google’s senior vice president and chief legal officer, writing on the company’s blog.

Yahoo and Microsoft declined to comment Sunday on Google’s actions. Earlier on Sunday, Microsoft’s general counsel, Bradford L. Smith, said in a statement: “The combination of Microsoft and Yahoo will create a more competitive marketplace by establishing a compelling No. 2 competitor for Internet search and online advertising.”

Imagine a world without Romania

Pretty interesting movie.
Romania is a nice country. I think it's OK to be proud that we are Romanians.
But we shouldn't fall on the other side and begin thinking that we are superior to all the rest.

Enjoy!

Super tool for blogging

Google keeps on inventing !

Their crawler is constantly indexing pages. This way they can actually find categories of pages that are related to you page. And this way they can find related adds to your page and group them in categories.

Just check the "related pages" section on the right of the blog underneath the normal AdSense adds.
