Funny Plonista

I just found out a very funny yet reality reflecting drawing about the Slacking Plonista excuse 'buildout!'. I'd like to share it with the readers of my blog:

What do you think ?

Budapest 2009 - Plone Conference

A quick note - the plone conference promises to be an extraordinary evannent. It is amazing to see the participants, meeting some of the plone celebs and superstarts, and sitting next to Hnno from Jarn.

Thank You Facebook

Different from my usual flame against facebook, I'd like to stop today and thank its existence. The fact you can contact people there without needing to know any cyber-detail about them besides their real name is nothing short but ingenious, to the extent of prooving to be life saving.

Kudos to the Facebook creators for that novel idea!

Plone as a SharePoint replacement

It's been a while that I've been thinking that plone could be a nice and feature fit replacement for SharPoint.

Before settling on SharePoint, read this. You might save a "couple" of bucks.

I'm happy to help folks that want it installed in non profit organization do first install and give some preliminary intro to the software. Free of charge! :-)

Visualizing Implanted Tumors in Mice with Magnetic Resonance Imaging Using Magnetotactic Bacteria

Me and my brother were contemplating about the possible imaging application of magnetotactic bateria. We decided to keep in a bit of a secret until he can submit his undergrad project proposal for resarch. However, quite accidently I have discovered that the idea and experiment design has already been suggested and supposedly someone is already working on this.

This is quite interesting, as this holds potential for accurate and absolute modeling and tracking of tumors whilst inducing minial to no damage to the patient and virutally no side-effetcs.

Read all about it here.

ChipPC Super Lite Linux based OS

Now that it's finally out, I'm proud to say that I had the pleasure to work with Alex Fradkin, Mark Lifshitz,Andrey Baranovsky , Nicolai and Andrey "The Big" our highly esteemed R&D manager.

The fruit of our labor is ThinX , a very low resource consuming Linux based OS that allows for the production of super lite computing units. The units are tightly secured and are excellent for usage as a thin client. Python was instrumental in its creation.

It was a pleasure working with you guys, I hope to be working with you sometime soon again on either projects that we may encounter.

I urge anybody who have needs for such hardware to contact sales and place your order. There's even an evaluation plan. Just don't forget to mention Sivan Greenberg recommended it to you through his blog! :-)

To see the line of products go to ChipPC's website and whet your appetite.

Now that ChipPC has atom based units, I wonder how fun it would be to have Ubuntu installed as the OS :-) Food for thought!

Budapest, Here I Come!

It appears that I'm going to http://ploneconf2009.org/ !! Will be great to meet all the community there that I've known so far just through IRC. Do some Singing & Dancing hacking and see where taxonomy in plone is headed to. I also hope to learn new tricks and tips, and see how Deliverance is used.

Thank you great grant committee. You made my day!
