Welcome

Hi. My name is Panos Tsimpoglou and here I share my thoughts, ideas, and random things I find online. I'm the founder and software architect of Anamo.eu, and a co-founder at aPazari. When the PC is off, I hit the gym. Thanks for visiting.

ΟΚ, let’s see a screenshot of Android 2.1 by HTC (phone is called HTC Incredible, for Incredibly Stupid): On the right hand corner we see the time. Fare enough. Next to it is the battery life. I think the battery is more important than the time of day… Anyway… Next to that there is the signal strength. Again Signal Strength is really important and I think it should be on a corner. Just like iPhone. Two really important stuff, like battery life and signal strength jammed together is NOT wise. Surprisingly, next to that there is another icon… I don’t know what that is or don’t care. Now, on the left hand corner there are 5 other icons! So on a 200x20 pixels bar we have 9 total information icons…. That would be called “the exact opposite of ergonomics” at Mercedes Benz. Below that we can see again the time! A huge digital clock, that has the weather on it’s bottom… I think they call these gadgets or distractions… Below this there is a grid of 8 icons. The first one has a globe icon that is showing the wrong part of he globe. It is focused on bora-bora islands on the Pacific Ocean! How weird and epicly stupid is that?! Next to that I can see a messaging application that has a surprisingly small icon. Some other icons are following with the Push Notifications being light-green in color and the text is leaving the borders of the notification bubble. That is great! Finally, on the bottom of the screen we can see three large buttons. The phone in the middle, which is the first OK thing. On the right there is a plus sign that obviously adds more gadgets to the already packed screen. On the left there is a small arrow that obviously hides a pop up/slide menu that must have even more icons and menus in it… Now on top of all those, imagine a moving background… Someone needs to get fired over this. Unacceptable. (Mess. A big, ugly mess. That is the word. Android 2.1 by HTC is a mess. Who cares…)

Μπορώ να σε διαβεβαιώσω ότι αυτός που θα βγάλει νόημα από όλο αυτό ΔΕΝ θα είναι από την Ελλάδα.
Το διαβεβαιώσω ίσως δεν είναι τόσο δυνατό όσο θα ‘θελα αλλά δυστυχώς δεν μπορώ να βρώ άλλη λέξη…

Μπορείς να ενημερώσεις τους φίλους και συμφοιτητές σου να σταματήσουν να ασχολούνται.

Αυτό που συμβαίνει στην Silicon Valley είναι κάτι που δεν υπάρχει πουθενά αλλού στον Γαλαξία μας. Δεν είναι μόνο πρόβλημα της Ελλάδας. Ο λόγος που στην Ελλάδα ή στο Λονδίνο ή όπου αλλού εμπνευσμένοι νέοι θα ξοδέψουν/χαραμήσουν τα νιάτα τους για να λύσουν αυτό το πρόβλημα είναι ότι κανείς δεν θα τους δώσει σημασία.
Στη Silicon Valley υπάρχει η κρίσιμη μάζα από εταιρίες παροχής hosting, ταλέντα σε λειτουργικά linux, δίκτυα, PHP, Apache, δικηγορικά γραφεία ειδικευμένα στα θέματα διαδικτύου, φιλόδοξοι επιχειρηματίες και «άγγελοι» που ψάχνουν να βρουν αυτόν που θα βρει τη λύση σε αυτό το πρόβλημα και όχι κάποιον που θα τους πείσει ότι είναι πρόβλημα (όπως θα γινόταν εδώ π.χ. στην Ελλάδα) και πολλά άλλα συστατικά που είναι απόρια του ότι εκατομμύρια κόσμος, συγκεντρωμένος σε ένα σχετικά μικρό γεωγραφικά μέρος, σκέφτεται και ζει μόνο για να λύνει τέτοια προβλήματα.

Αυτή η κρίσιμη μάζα δεν υπάρχει πουθενά αλλού. Έλληνες: ΔΕΝ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΜΟΝΟ Η ΙΔΕΑ. ΕΙΝΑΙ ΤΟΣΑ ΠΟΛΛΑ ΠΕΡΙΣΣΟΤΕΡΑ…

Angry repsonse to a copy-post from TechCrunch about some guy who wishes that he and his mates will find the soultion to social networking…

(That is the problem. Ignorance is their main drive. Failure is their common outcome.)

(Marissa Ann Mayer, Vice President of Search Product and User Experience at the search engine company Google, is pondering about the noise in the social networks…

If social is like search 10 years ago, then the king of the future must have a killer feature “PageRank-for-Social-Graphs” like Google’s PageRank that sorted crap from good staff. It has to apply everywhere. It has to… (thinking)… Oh people don’t tempt me to get into this…)
