Former successful compamny RIM is going down. As I thought is going to happen with Nokia is happening now with RIM. Not to improve, is let the competitors pass over you.
RIM has shown the world its latest Blacberry Curve 9320 with… nothing interesting? minor improvements. Nowadays and particularly for RIM development is crucial. HTC is also going down and Samsung is becoming a very important player among mobile manufacturers, do you know why? have a look on Research & Development amount on both companies, there you got it.
So, stay quiet and you die. Keep on improvement and it keeps yourself alive and knicking, uhm.. by the way, it may apply to many fields, doesn’t it?
Sometimes something good happens when you don’t expect it. Ravel doesn’t like very much his Pavane pour une infante defunte, it was wrotte as incidental music, the title wants to mean nothing and Ravel himself doesn’t consider it was a great piece.
But, when you don’t expect it, things happens, maybe, this is a lessons to be learned. And the piece becomes famous, and translated into different versions although it was for the piano now you may find it in guitar and orchestra version among others

Addthis more interesting feature is statistics, not just add those famous buttons for Social Media easy sharing. Nowadays is crucial to know who shares your content, it gives you an incredible feedback in order to improve your website, social media impact on SEO, SEM and SMO.
And about how Addthis may help us with statistics, they explain it better than me:
But the movie offers surprises. I realized how good is Shakespeare at writting poems, although his famous mastering in theater. He also describes humorously how men may be.
Now I bring back this video, with a nice poem (with its translation for spaniards) describing some men, from some women point of view.
Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,
men were deceivers ever;
one foot in sea and one on shore
to one thing constant never;
then sight no so,
but let them go,
and be you blithe and bonny;
converting all your sounds of woe
into. Hey, nonny,nonny.
Sing no more ditties, sing no more,
or dumps so dull and heavy;
the fraud of men was ever so,
Since Summer first was leavy.
Then sigh not so,
but let them go,
and be you blithe and bonny;
converting all your songs of woe
into. Hey, nonny, nonny.
No suspiréis más, señoras, no suspiréis;
los hombres siempre fueron embusteros;
un pie en el mar, otro en la orilla;
jamás constantes en nada.
No suspiréis, pues, de ese modo,
sino dejadlos ir
y sed alegres y despreocupadas,
convirtiendo todos vuestros lamentos
en algarabía.
No cantéis más canciones,
no cantéis más sobre vuestras tristezas y pesares.
La mentira del hombre siempre fue la misma
desde que son frondosos los veranos.
no suspiréis, así por tanto,
y dejadlos marchar
y sed alegres y despreocupadas,
convirtiendo todos vuestros lamentos
en algarabía
A colleague (& friend) ask for my CV and I’ve drop him two lines with two URL’s, one from my obsolete web page CV (just in Spanish) and the other one from my more accurate (although not perfect) pbenavent’s LinkedIn profile.
So I get into LinkedIn in order to check how old my uncomplete my profile is. Then I start to correct it and going up & down through it I realize LinkedIn have done a simple but practical improvement.
Try it by yourself but for instance, if tag a wordpress post with linkeding tag it must appear at my LinkedIn. It let’s you enrich your profile more easily and again, Social Media is the new thing by connecting networks, professional, personal, all in all.
Finally is out and it has been less that I was looking for. Yep, I’m talking about The new iPad, people is so devoted that even the brand name have been commented.
It’s no so revolutionary, for sure they have done a great job. Personaly, I really believe they’re yet leaders on this category. You ain’t gonna found nothing so good for 499 bucks. Most of buzz comes form the new screen, GPU improvements, size and weight…
In my opinion there’re two things as least as important as hardware improvements, and both of them are software related: app’s for iPad use and Siri.
We’re, definitely in a post-pc age. With the iPhoto, iMovie, Garage Band, things reserved for a computer, now can easily done from the iPad. The rest of competitors should note how easy and integrated applications are with the whole environment.
Finally, Siri the network not only a place to storage but a place to work with, an extension in software terms. Maybe this Siri importance falls if your language isn’t supported by Siri.
Foursquare has made a great change. They’re moving from Google Maps to Open Street Maps.
This is not only a simple map change. Google Maps and Open Street Maps they both have different approaches.
While Google is a Foursquare has choose Open Street Map because:
It’s a crowd-sourced global atlas, and it’s kind of amazing! It’s like Wikipedia for geography.) We love the idea of open data, and were happy to try it out. (Source)
Now, my two cents; is it going to penalize Foursquare in any particular way from Google’s point of view?
