Blogger Addin for Word
Well, the post looked all right, but I like having my title in a bigger font :(
Oh well….
Oh well….
Cultural Issue
Cultural Issue…
Well, as you know (or may not know) I live in the Dominican Republic (have lived here all my life, and probably will be here for the rest of it).
Life in the Dominican Republic is somewhat different from life in the United States.
Being a Dominican geek is very, very VERY hard. Why? No geek culture here, it’s difficult to find someone that shares your geeky interests.
For example, take me and my husband, geeks by nature, our hobbies include playing World of Warcraft and... well…uhm… also playing World of Warcraft :). World of Warcraft is my newest passion but haven’t found a single Dominican playing the game (not everyone is as big a geek to pay US$15 a month to play the MMORPG).
Well, our hobbies include other geeky activities such as watching science fiction and fantasy tv shows and movies, reading sci-fi and fantasy books, software development :), playing video games and mess around with new technologies, but of course, our recent encounter with World of Warcraft has moved all those other hobbies to a “less interesting” place.
I can’t talk to anyone else in this country about Battlestar Gallactica or Serenity, because no one I know even knows what it is. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pretty sure there are plenty of Dominican geeks just like us out there but we are such an extinct species that we are very hard to track. In World of Warcraft my husband and I joined a Guild. A Guild in World of Warcraft is basically a group of players that get together, form a group and chat and play together when online at the game. Our Guild is called Old School, we’re just a bunch of “normal geeks” who have a real life outside the game (work, school, kids, spouses, etc), our ages ranging between 18 and 46. I really enjoyed last night talking to them remembering things we did in the days of our kid and teen years such as watching MTV when it played videos, Saturday morning cartoons, watching E.T. the first time it was shown in theaters, Nick at Nite, and a bunch of other things that I’m pretty sure most American people from my generation have experienced, but not really sure about the number of domincans that have lived it.
I really love seeing the amount of Dominicans blogs on the web, it makes you feel you’re not alone in a “American populated internet”. Most of blogs maintained by Dominicans either living here or on another country can be found at http://www.dominicanblogger.com.
Well, look at the time, time to get back to coding. I’m trying out the Blogger Addin for Microsoft Word for this post. I just hate writing inside the Blogger HTML thing. Let’s see how it shows.

Om Malik on Broadband - Internet Anxiety Disorder Anyone?
Ha!!! I'm not the only one!
Cuando vi esto me senti bastante identificada. Esta relacionado con un post que hice hace unos dias.
Estamos en la era digital, home of the information overload :D

Habemus Papam!!!!
El martes eligieron un nuevo papa. Soy catolica, creo en Dios, pero lamentablemente (para algunos) mi creencia en lo que es la iglesia y su estructura, no es muy buena. Para mi la iglesia, es simplemente otro organismo politico. Claro que me plante delante de la television para ver el nuevo Papa, pues ya que el unico Papa que habia visto desde que tengo uso de razon era Juan Pablo II, pense que seria un "once in a lifetime opportunity". Si siguen eligiendo Papas tan "maduros" creo que esta se convertira en "a few times in a lifetime opportunity" :D
Hace un tiempo habia oido un par de episodios del Podcast de Father Roderick Vonhögen, Catholic Insider. Es interesante ver un padre tan cerca de la tecnologia. La calidad del audio es excelente. Cuando vi que eligieron un nuevo papa lo primero que pense es que el proximo podcast del Father Roderick iba a ser interesante, ya que el cubrio la muerte y entiero del papa Juan Pablo II desde el Vaticano. Efectivamente hay dos episodios del dia 19, donde se escucha la gente en la plaza San Pedro emocionada cuando vieron salir el humo, y cantando Habemus Papam!. Escribo esto mientras escucho el segundo episodio del dia 19, y a la verdad que es muy interesante, vale la pena escucharlo, y la calidad del sonido es excelente.

Do you hear me now? Good!
Tengo varios dias sin escribir, pero es que este blogger esta cada dia peor. Es extrana la "coincidencia" de que blogger.com este tan "maloso" luego del lanzamiento oficial de msn.spaces. Sabotaje anyone? :DBueno, en estos dias he estado madurando una idea que tengo. Proximamente vendra algo... el que?... algo... don't worry, todo a su debido momento.
Si Blogger sigue en estos canes, tendremos que mudarnos para otro lado. Me gusta de MSN Spaces el asunto con las fotos, la integracion con el messenger (por ahi es que agarran a uno, integrando una cosa nueva con algo que uno usa a diario). Pero no termina de gustarme. No se si es porque la mayoria de los spaces se ven como tan ... no se... basura :D. Es el look and feel que le dio Microsoft, muy MSN (duh!) pero a mi personalmente no termina de cuadrarme.
En otra nota, Adobe compro a Macromedia, por unos cuantos "billoncitos". A ver que resulta de esta union. La competencia entre los dos era muy buena (quizas de ahi salieron tan buenos productos). Pero ahora sin competencia, que pasara con nosotros los usuarios? Seguiran evolucionando el Freehand o el Illustrator? El Photoshop vendra ahora con una version de Fireworks o seguira con ImageReady? Descontinuaran algunos productos o lo uniran? Bueno, solo el tiempo nos dira esto. Solo espero que esta compra no termine como HP/Compaq, que todavia muchos consumidores estan confundidos.
Cambio y fuera!
