Diario de letras existe thanks to Microsoft Office Live Small Business

It's amazing what my girlfriend was able to do in so little time thanks, in part, to that simple designer UI. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officelive I would love to see more features but I can understand why we limit the freedom of site owners...

This is the first I'm listening to one in my life: A man without a country from Kurt Vonnegut . I figured out that while I'm putting order in my apartment, I might as well expand a bit my mind by listening to a recorded book. This is such an entertaining

GOOD BYE LENIN!

Yesterday evening, for some reasons, I was thinking about death and how I started to know about the computing world... I thought "Tomorrow, I'll see if I can find pictures of those things I've been using since I was 13 year old". Apple II Learned basic.
