Mindmanager for Mac is a joke

Pietro — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 17:23:58 +0000

I have been using mindmaps for quite some time. Wherever I go I am known as the mindmap person. My whole website was build using MindManager’s export-to-HTML function. But those where the times of Windows. Now I have moved to Mac and I have left behind MindManager. Now I use Freemind, and iMindMap.

Facebook as a spiritual tool

Pietro — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 20:57:02 +0000

[crossposted on the moblog, and the facebook notes.]

One of the leit motif in spirituality is to reach an integration among the various parts of oneself. There are many important reasons for this, which I am not going to enter right now. Becoming One is not seen in Taoism as a spiritual goal, but as [...] Related posts:

No more Ivory Towers I am right now at the FET 11 conference. There I was attending a session from my old friend Josh Bongard on Crowdsourcing Science . There I commented that it would be already a good thing if scientists started to make themselves available to the wider public. This by giving a timetable when they are [...]...

Ryanair Sucks

Pietro — Mon, 30 Jul 2007 23:12:12 +0000

I am just back from the airoport. I bought some time ago a return ticket with Rayanair to Rome, going on the 4th August, and return on the 19th of August. Well, long story short I needed to change my going there ticket. I am no longer going with Ryanair to Rome, but to Athens, [...] Related posts:

Polyphasic Easter

Pietro — Wed, 12 Apr 2006 07:26:13 +0000

It is 2.30 am and I just woke up. I went to bed at 2.05 am.

I am not crazy. Not yet, not anymore, at least not more than usual. I am just trying a new sleeping technique. It is called polyphasic sleep. I actually wanted to become polyamorouse, but I got confused during the [...] Related posts:

The new project: TagBay. Tagging e-Bay

Pietro — Fri, 24 Mar 2006 16:18:37 +0000

It is now the time to present the next project we have been working to: TagBay. And I say ‘we’, because is this project I am not alone. I did it with a friend of mine, Derek, who accepted, very patiently to code, some of the idea I have been tinkering around in the last [...] Related posts:

Sleeping patterns: when is it better to sleep

Pietro — Sat, 04 Mar 2006 10:07:21 +0000

In the last weeks I have been interested in polyphasic sleep. Polyphasic sleep is a sleeping pattern where the person does not sleep in one big chunck, but in many roughly equivalent pieces throughout the whole day. The first time I heard about it was from my father, some twenty years ago. The pattern is [...] Related posts:

Reading your mate passwords in Firefox

Pietro — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 09:36:05 +0000

So, here is the quest. You need to discover the password of your best friend. Although this might seem morally reprehensible you are moved by nobel and deep reasons. You need to check in his email and discover if he is having an affair with your wife. You can’t just confront him if you are [...] No related posts.
