Por que el mundo necesita mas fotos de Amelia la rockstar, por que soy obsesivo compulsivo, y por que el blog es mio, aca tienen imagenes del segundo dia de vida de Amelia “Colombina Gutierrez” Gimenez y algunos invitados especiales. Las caras de mamones son solo coindicencia. hay más, sígueme.

Después de 6 meses prácticamente abandonado (igual la ballenita estaba linda) contraculto tiene por fin un estilo definido y se ve bastante bien. No está todavía listo, hay otras cosas que quiero poner y eso va a significar cambios en lo q ya hice, pero tengo el miniportafolio web arriba, info de contacto, y todo está empezando a tomar forma.

Cuando vuelva de Argentina tendré que dedicarme como la gente y dejarlo todo bonito, pero por ahora estoy tranquilo. Comentarios?

i was reading this article about rss aggregators and bandwidth on scoble’s, and i just had to write this: bloglines is the best aggregator ever. not only for the user (can be accessed anyway) but for publishers. how is that? simple enough.

bloglines, like most aggregators, checks feeds once an hour, but it doesn’t need to check it for every user. so even if you have 1000 subscribers, you still get 1 request an hour.

that sounds fair enough for me. and robert should thank that, given he has 2901 bloglines subscribers at this exact moment (i’m one of those).

which takes us to the other reason bloggers should encourage the use of bloglines. they can see how many people is reading them from it. for those who complaint about trafic numbers and stuff.

i have the decaf bad blog in my
bloglines, but every time i see my feeds, there’s the same 20 posts.
no new ones. not even nothing. the same old ones.
who’s fault? no idea.

i have succesfully installed and tested a wordpress (formerly cafelog)
weblog on this server, and i will soon be migrating from blogger to
it. just need to do some more tweaking and learn some about the
template sys.
just in time for the plot v.X cool, cool new layout.

well, i must say blogger’s posting interface sucks. it’s not ugly, and
actually it’s very clear and simple. but it’s too slow.
i tend to blog from slow computers on slow networks, and blogger is
slow enough for not letting me post. i can’t spend half an hour
waiting just to post a few lines.
thus i’m testing blogger’s mail-to-blog utility… if it works, gmail
will become my blogware…

so…

the plot, as you may have noticed, experienced quite a long downtime; but now it’s back up and no longer hosted at dan’s evoex. i’m still in the uk, but now hosted at a free acount provided by the über cool guys from trash the system.

if anyone else is looking for a cool host, now you know where to go.

regular posting will go on from now on, expecting everything goes right. archives, however will probably suck cause i have to update all of the links and layouts… maybe i wont.

i’m going on vacation for ten days, so no new posts till at least july 25. that’s right.

oh, how i love chrono trigger. i’m an emulator junkie, you know?

chances are if you’re watching this site through internet explorer on mac os 9 or older, it will look horrible. i don’t know exactly why this happens, but i have my guess.

i will not fix that as i already had to hack my styles because of ie 6 windows, and i must say i don’t give shit about mac users. specially if they use internet explorer.

so if you have that problem get mac os x, that way you can switch to firebird. or simply blogline me.

celebrating it’s first year of existance bloglines now has a brand new layout and some new function like blogging. yeah, now you can read and write blogs all in one place, web based. cool stuff. be sure to check that out.

so i’ve just changed the plot’s layout to v.9… nameless, aparently.

i’ve also spent some time doing an essay for university where i analized a post by robert scoble, it was kinda fun…

let’s see how all this goes…

see, i can just blog every other day because i do other things, but look at how many posts a day robert scoble can do… just freaking amazing. maybe if i had bradband or something, i’m still modem stuck, you know.

no, i’m not reviving apple ads here. i don’t even liked that campaign, and i certainly ain’t a mac fan. it’s mozilla what we’re talking about here, mozilla firefox. and the switch is obviously from ms internet explorer to it. yeah, i know it’s been said before but it’s getting more and more critical every time: internet explorer is unsafe. it’s unsafe because it’s full with lots of little bugs that someone is eventually going to write an exploit for. we’ve all seen it before and it is going to continue. so what can we do? switch to the best browser ever. mozilla firefox.

wow, long time no post.

i’ve been doing some other things this week and left the site quite aside… but no worry, i’m here.

i’ll write some long posts soon.

just in two more hours i’m turning 20.

how fucking impressive is that?

i was so busy with university this week that had no idea at all. true. i was printing a big investigation me and 5 more guys from u had done, when i saw the cover date: june 18.

fuck, i thought, june 18 already? my birthday’s tomorrow!

yeah, that’s the story. what’s the point in it? no idea. just thought it was funny.
