Getting settled in my new place

Ola Persson, 03 Dec 2008 (10:30)

I moved to a different division here (Isobar) a while back. Today the project I’ve been on was pitched to the client, who really loved our concept. Sure feels good. So now we can get on with working out all details of it.

El Ojo first day

Buenos Aires is a beautiful city. I found it to be a really, really nice Listened to two presentations of which one was a real letdown. I expected that cp+b wouldn’t have someone who presented by reading from his notes and showing work without telling anything but stuff like; you’d upload your picture here, then push here and…

I’ve been hanging out with Jesus from Netthink and Ricardo from Isobar. Really pleasant.

Some images will come once I’ve time to sort through them.

Saved by a bear

For some reason (the space I didn’t have in my bag) I didn’t bring my harddrive containing my music. I love music. My music library is always growing, last time I checked I could listen around the clock for over 3 months without listening to the same song twice.

So when I suddenly only had a few days worth of music (what I had lying around on my macbook), I eventually went mad. Well, I spent some time trying out music services, such as deezer, last.fm radio stations, blip.fm etc. But I had issues with getting them to stream good enough to be really usable. The internet connections here can be really bad at times.

A few days ago Björn gave me a Spotify invite. If you’re not familiar with it, think of iTunes that streams whatever you want from the mayor labels, and a bunch of smaller ones. There’s a few things I haven’t found, but it’s definitely not too much that’s missing (unlike deezer). And not having to run it in a browser is also a plus.

Now if they’d only integrate it with last.fm and have the option to add in your own local music (like obscure remixes and other stuff that you don’t find in spotify).

So thanks to Björn for keeping me sane. ;)

Police fights

Ola Persson, 17 Oct 2008 (03:34)

Apparently the police hasn’t been to happy with the governor.

Live television picture showed pushing and shoving and some punches being thrown as the protesters pushed forward. Riot police dressed in black then began firing tear gas, stun grenades and rubber bullets.

In one incident, a marked police vehicle could be seen trying to force its way through a police cordon, and there were a number of heated exchanges.

But I didn’t really notice, even if it’s not that far from here.
