busy week

Nov 30, 2006 Author: admin | Filed under: Blog

It’s been a very busy week so far, I haven’t had time to post anything meaningfull outside of work.

So I searched for the best comic strip from Dilbert that would explain my situation and this was my choice…

hurricane paulWell, the weather here in Portugal isn’t very nice right now.

In fact, it’s raining cats and dogs, streets are flooded, trees are falling and I’m arriving home everyday wet and cold.

In these situations I try to think of something to cheer me up and on this case I remembered Olli Williams, the weather man from the Family Guy series!

He doesn’t appear that often but the few times he’s popped up just makes me laugh.

You can see for yourself in this compilation (not made by me) on Youtube on Olli Williams.

do you waste time surfing the net?

Time trackerWe live in a digital age and we’re more and more connected to the “web”, we’ve got wireless connections, gprs enabled cellphones, portable gaming devices and even rabbits that read your mail. :P

With so much going around sometimes it’s hard to keep focus with so much information going around and interesting stuff to read or see on the net (like wikipedia, youtube, del.icio.us, etc).

One interesting plugin I use in my Firefox browser is called Time Tracker and I use it to see how much time I spend surfing the internet, it helps me keep control of my time. It’s amazing how time flies if you’re not carefull.

Besides tracking time across sessions and different tabs you can also list ‘work’ sites that should not count and filter these out. The animated clock also gives you a better sense of time slipping through your fingers. :)

So head over to Firefox add-ons and give Time Tracker a try, it’s one of my favourites and most useful plugins I use daily.
