The House I Am Living In

I am Loving Google+

     I am really enjoying Google+. The control I have over who and what I see is great. There is much less clutter than facebook but I am not sure how long that will last once Google opens up the API's to developers to create apps and games like Farmville and Mafia Wars. The downside is there are a few issues like comments not sorting by thread and the ability to shrink a long thread down but these are changes I am sure are in the works.
       Right now not many of my friends are on it and only one of them post's anything but I do follow some big tech players and stay on top of all kinds of fun and interesting posts and links. Although do to the large amount of people who also follow them, the comments feed gets long rather quickly.

The cool thing for me was about a day after I added Apple Co-founder Steve Wozniak to one of my circles I got an email saying that he added me to one of his circles. For me that is way cool.

If you want or need an invite send me an email and I will be happy to send you one.

I Signed Up for Google+ (I have invites if you need one)

So after a few weeks after deactivating facebook account I am back in the social network scene on Google+. Right now it is only a few weeks old so not many people have signed up but I like the way you can customize it and it is much less cluttered than facebook. The privacy settings are very good and allow you to customize it to your needs. I also like that integration with other google services such as picassa. I would like direct links to youtube and blogger accounts so everything is organized in one place.

If you want to join and need an invite, send me an email (my address is on the right side of the blog.) with the Subject line - "Googleplus invite" nothing else is needed. I will then send an invite to your email address. Or you can send a comment to this post with your email, as I moderate comments I will send you the invite then delete the comment so your email address is not posted.

I Have Deactivated My facebook Account

and this is why you should as well.

I changed to a long random password then deactivated the account then deleted the password. I can never go back. :)

Amsterdam Spring '11

Why America is Screwed

Don't forget, the empty part is money we don't have.

Legoland - Windsor

Springtime in London

Months and months with nothing, sorry

What can I say, I am lazy. Plus my life has settled down and I haven't done as much traveling lately. Well that's not exactly true but I need some excuse for not posting anything since my Paris trip. Since then I have been to America, Amsterdam and a small village in the UK called Lacock.

I have ended up in London for longer than I had planned on, three months will turn into eight before I return to Slovakia in late May - early June. I have been promised that electricity will be run to the cabin by the end of June or it should begin before then. I will not hold my breath.

I am now back in the states for a few weeks visiting friends and family in NJ, VA and GA. It was great to hang out with my friends down in Savannah and seeing their kids. I will now spend a few days in in VA before heading back north to NJ to stay with my dad for a few days before my flight back to London on the 23rd.

If I get a chance a will post some photos from the Amsterdam trip in late January and some from my trip in America.

Until then, thanks to my regular readers and I really am sorry for taking so long between posts. I hope as the summer picks up and construction of the cabin continues I will update you all more.
