We’re in Vienna

I’m writing this post sitting at the cafe in Vienna, Austria. The flight to here went smooth. I almost went crazy of boredom even though I had iPod, laptop and my PDA serving me all the time.
There’s something I don’t like about airport in Vienna. Maybe I’m just tired and frustrated…. We’re waiting for the [...]

New Feature

Just installed the cool new feature for this website – image captions. Installation took 2 minutes. Everything works well… Try to hover over the image and you’ll see what happens. Thanks to Daniel Rubin!

Daniel pointed me to some validation issues that this site had. So I decided to spend some time fixing problems. Now this site is a valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional
I like doing things in a right way. Do you?

Sorting photos

I just finished sorting out photos that I had in many different places on CD’s, DVD’s, my computer, Darya’s computer, mail. I used to think that we didn’t make enough photos. Well, I was wrong, we have quite a bit of them. It took me almost 3 hours to sort photos by categories [...]

Spanish

By the way, I discovered podcasts for myself (I know geeks will laugh at me). And along with that, I started leaning Spanish again. I used to know basics, but completely forgot everything I studied before. Actually, I’m really thrilled with the idea of learning something new while driving to work, for example. We’ll see [...]

The Dog

I’m dying… Just look at this cute puppy!?
I always wanted a dog. My parents never agreed to get one for me. And now it’s time to say that it’s decided: we’re getting a boxer puppy in Odessa. Why boxer?
First of all, boxer makes a great family dog. They are loyal, they love kids. They love [...]

Status update

It’s been quiet on this blog for awhile. Well, this is mainly because the fun is over and we’re preparing for the trip back to Odessa, Ukraine. There are so much things we need to take care of before we actually leave the country. We’re planning to go to New York tomorrow and address some [...]

Another cool clip

My friend has just sent me another cool youtube video about another one day in cat’s life. I think it’s very hilarious!

External Hard Drive

I was thinking of buying some external USB (or possibly firewire) hard drive for awhile now. So I was looking at different options and found this puppy. I kinda like the idea of having all-in-one features, but:

It’s a bit pricey
It looks bulky

I’m not really sure if I need a DVD since I don’t [...]
