I'm going for the iPhone 4
Most of you already know I was dying for the Apple tablet, the iPad, however with the announcement of the new iPhone 4, I am seriously reconsidering it.
I already own an iPhone 3G which I am in love with since the very moment I had it in my hands, but time has come to upgrade it. It has some minor hardware flaws besides little bumps and scratches, due to carrying it without protection. And...

The disastrous communication strategy of Movistar
Yesterday, the telecom company which for two years had the exclusive of selling the iPhone in Spain (Movistar) announced the prices for the current clients who want to upgrade to the brand new iPhone 4.
I will not discuss about the rightness of the plans or the smartphones upgrade policy, I’m sure they will be pretty similar to the other companies. What get on my nerves is the deplorable...

Where do yo see yourself in five years?
I will make an effort to write the whole article in English because I’m tired as hell, but I have some kind of commitment to not become too lazy and write more.
These past weeks there’s been something bothering me so much I couldn’t even close my eyes at night; and most of the days it was the first thing to came to my mind in the morning. I started thinking about where I see...

Venera7 is back →
We think there are way too many side interests in the pro community, biasing what you’re reading big time. Internet is a great channel, anyone can make a difference if they really care, if they’re passionate about it.

Why do I love climbing
I’ve already told you before how fascinating I find the mountains as a metaphor of life, and climbing just exceeds this resemblance.
