Streaming, on demand music has been re-invented

December 21st, 2008 Amit No comments

deezer.com – this is the real thing guys.

This is going to be the Facebook of streaming, on demand music.

I didn’t even bother checking all the amazingly cool features they have there (blind test, smart radio, MP3 upload, all kind of preset radios and stuff). instead I started filling my play list with all the albums I could ever hear.

Have fun.

Zend Wedding – Mazal Tov.

April 9th, 2008 Amit No comments

It was a warm spring night in Jaffa Israel yesterday and Zeev Suraski married Ania Tarnavskaya.

I saw quite a few Zend weddings during the past 8 years but this one had something almost magical in it.

It was also nice to see some people who have been working for Zend in the past and came to celebrate with Zeev and Anya.

January 23rd, 2008 Amit 1 comment

Zenders all around the world are excited today with the release of the Zend Studio for Eclipse.

Although not developed in my group it is still a very impressive achievement ;) early reports are very positive about the  product which is the result of a very close work between Zend and the Eclipse community.

Well Done everyone! we are definitely in the correct direction :)

The Zend Studio is available for download from the Zend Site and is now offered in a special price.

What do a tie, a kiss, drawing, knitting, writing a resume, getting pregnant, lossing weight, making money, making a bow, and playing a guitar have in common?

I am hooked on Google Suggests

It’s my home page, I use it for day2day needs of course, but I also find myself randomly challenging it with wh questions like “what’s the…” or “who is..” (I just find it amusing for some lame reason :) )

The suggesting algorithm (according to Google)

use a wide range of information to predict the queries users are most likely to want to see. For example, Google Suggest uses data about the overall popularity of various searches to help rank the refinements it offers.”

I was so happy to see that according to the Google algorithm, kissing is more important then making money :)
