Adam Savage’s obsessions
I’m a huge Mythbusters fan. I deeply, deeply love the show, not only because it’s funny, entertaining and some times downright crazy – but also because you actually learn stuff while watching it. If you haven’t sat down on a cozy sofa, with a chilled ice tea, switched your TV on an tried to guess if the myth they’re trying to bust is true or not, I...

Google to censor no more
On late tuesday, Google announced that they will stop censoring search results on Google.cn, and that the decision may lead to the shutting down of all Google offices in China if they can’t come to an agreement with the Chinese government.

Linux App: Semantik
I originally wanted to write an article about multiple mind-map software. Realizing that my limited access to any Windows or Mac OS -based system bound me to a very small range programs that I could evaluate on these platforms, my little project evolved to a more common approach in the linux world: an “Open Source mindmapping app roundup”.
