Adding a new page to your employers list in facebook

It should be simple right? Wrong. I’m either too stupid or it’s just plain complicated. It’s just not straight forward enough. There’s so much going on on the new page you’ve created and when you try to add it to the list of employers… bang it eats you. The page is nowhere to be found.

I though well I’ll go to the page and find the button that says: “Add this page to your employers” or something of the kind. It turns out there ain’t one.

I’ve given up for the time being. I’ll try again tomorrow, maybe it’s just that the new page hasn’t propagated through all their databases yet.(though I would expect them to inform me of that)

Google Maps + Vodafone internet = Nice combination

Navigation software providers have really got a problem. With Google maps now offering free maps for almost all mobile devices and street view + turn by turn navigation for android powered devices, and Vodafone offering 500MB of data traffic for roughly 4€/month I really don’t see a point in paying for GPS navigation software. Sure you have to download the map data off the internet, but that’s got its good part: it’s always up to date and with numerous points of interest from Google. Also Vodafone seem to keep to their word of offering mobile internet wherever you are. I’ve been driving through the mountains last week and apart from some really remote roads I seemed to have at least GPRS connectivity everywhere. Now that’s rather impressive.

Bottom line is I could very well find my way just relying on Google maps, that sounds promising

The perfect present, sort of

Looking for the perfect present to send to your beloved one? Search no more. Hug e gram is here to help you.

It can really make you look stupid. And for $29.95 it’s really good value.

I tried hard to see how this is better than flowers, but I can’t see an overt advantage to it. Call me a conservative, but I can’t. Sure it can kill your relationship and ensure you get no other so it’s a money saver as well. See again it’s great value. You’ll never need to buy flowers again. Ever.

So here’s a tip: If you were drunk last night and got yourself into a relationship that you’re not looking forward to buy your new girlfriend one of these. She’ll be thrilled to wrap it around her waist. Did I say thrilled? Damn it’s got me as well. I meant terrified. Also make sure you record a nice message for hear to hear. You could, for example, remind her of your phone number so that she can quickly call you to end it.

Yppie. Time for celebration

I just realized I’ve hit the 10 posts milestone. It took me a while but that’s irrelevant I’m here.
