For those of you who are using SquirrelMail, you might have noticed that it looks a bit well, let’s just say amateurish 🙂 That doesn’t go to say it isn’t a good package! (I personally love it and I think it does a pretty good job — hence my additions to this software.) However, as […]
This is something that I have discovered recently looking through some (old) code — and it occurred to me that XPath is so powerful and easy to use that quite often programmers might forget the price paid for something this powerful. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying XPath is worthless (on the contrary!), if […]
As some of you know it, there’s been recent discussion about my moving to Silicon Valley. I won’t bore you with the details of what and how and when, but 2 of my colleagues, Rowan Jacobson and Denis Lowe are in the same boat. So being the absolute ejits we are and not having a […]
Mike Nolet of AppNexus started a 2-part webinar on scaling their advertising business and I am glad I followed the first part (and I will definitely be there for the 2nd part!) as some interesting things came out of that.

Today seems to be my “funny things I see on the web” day — I just logged into LinkedIn to be targeted in the job section with an interesting one: a job offer from Vibrant Media (who I worked for till a few years ago): If that job is based on my previous jobs […]
So I keep being amazed every day by top search results in Google — obviously generated by Joe (Dumbass) Bloggs 🙂 This occurred to me today when I was trying to search for running certain scripts in bash (Linux) and I ended up typing just “how to r” — and this is what good ole’ […]
Some of you might have noticed, some might not, but I finally got off my arse to migrate my liviutudor.com domain to a proper hosting package. Gone are the days where I had 2 servers stuck under my desk at home — as much as I had fun X11-ing into my Linux boxes and adding […]
I had doubts in the past about whether my consumption of beer is getting worrying or not. I always managed to tell myself though that “it’s ok, nothing to worry about”. Until today, when out of curiosity I have checked out my Klout report — based from what I could tell on my Twittering. Well […]
This is (part of) the Cognitive Match in one of our standard design and planning meetings today. Nothing spectacular, but it’s been a while I thought since I’ve last shared some of the insights into how we do things over here. You reckon that diagram we’re all working on looks complicated? Nooooooo! That’s simple shit […]
