… you can enter into a new dimension of your own existence
I just played my third ever official futsal match. My team mates played well. I was pleased to be able to put one in the back of the net. Prior to this, I had only played outdoor football and that was 10 years ago!

I’m easy when it comes to coffee. I usually order a flat white, a cappuccino and sometimes even a cafe latte. My favourite coffee however, would have to be one part espresso, four parts milk (frothed at no hotter than 60°C) and served in a ceramic cup. That would be Magic!

Three things I like about WordPress
- You are in control of where your data resides. Therefore, you have ownership of all material which is original and created by you.
- Your blog isn’t subject to sudden change. Unlike private social media services where terms and conditions can change at any moment. With private social media services, when new terms are presented to you, there is no negotiation. Either you accept the new conditions or you can no longer use the service. If you have your own blog on WordPress, you need not worry about sudden changes because you own the software, you control your content and the rest is up to you.
- You are demonstrating your initiative and drive. You believe in self expression and you have the ability to publish your work using the technology available today. Anyone can sign up for a social media service; not everyone has the know-how and initiative to proceed to set up a self-hosted blog and then pay for it to get their word out.
I love the reddle theme by wordpress but the comment bubbles just need to go. If I can figure out a way to hide these, I’d be very pleased. I also think it would be good to have more post formats available. It’s nice to have post, aside, image but surely more could be added. I’m also thinking of disabling comments and not using tags. In the end it’s just a tumble log. There’s no need to complicate things.
Is Disqus necessary
I just migrated my posts on tumblr to this new self hosted WordPress blog. I am pleased that I finally have the rights to the content I share and do not have to comply with terms and conditions imposed by corporations who used to store the data for me.
In the same vain, why am I allowing for all my comments to be stored by a third party? I no longer see the need to used Disqus. It came in handy whilst using tumblr as there was no alternatives to offer commenting.
The one issue that made me reassess this decision was the fact that Disqus comment count appeared over the text of my posts. I could not fix that issue so I will abandoned the service. The argument about ownership justified the decision even more. I now own all my posts, how about I own my comments too?
I’m getting quite tired of the iOS environment. The iPad was an awesome product in 2010 but the way the apps work to differing levels of satisfaction tires me. I can’t do everything I wish. I can’t even download google maps for iPad. If I had to renew, I’d be getting an android tab for sure. Lets hope htc can build one as impressive as their latest phone.
Saturday’s are great for Chilean completos!
First time I knowingly made a magic coffee and the results are great
