I have effortlessly published a high quality and aesthetically pleasing photo album using my brand new .Mac account.
Check out How many screens does it take… ASAP.
As usual, higher quality versions are available upon request.

Hell froze over
Yesterday, Apple released its iTunes for Windoze.
Well, of course that made me happy… since I use Windoze at work, it means I can drop that piece of junk player I had to use (WinAmp) and can now use iTunes, which is, by the way, exactly like the Mac version down to Aqua scrollbars and Rendezvous music sharing(!). It also means I can finally listen to the music I bought through the iTunes Music Store at work.
Except… you can only authorize three computers to listen to the music. And it seems like I authorized some friend’s computer during one of my demos (this was a Music Store demo) in addition to my iBook and my brother’s iBook. I’m trying to track this friend down (it wasn’t Gustavo’s Powerbook… it might be Jaramillo’s iBook) in order to deauthorize it and then authorize my PC at work.
Annoying.
Anyway, blinded with the Reality Distortion Field, I also bought a .mac account.
We’ll shortly see how that goes.
Update [October 20, 2003]: We’ve checked Gustavo’s and Daniel’s computers. They were not authorized with my iTunes account. My apologies to them. The hunt for the third computer continues.
They found Nemo
It appears that after months and months of looking, they found him:
Shimon Peres is…
I was sent this disturbing image yesterday.
To the left, a young, innocent Shimon Peres, statesman.
To the right, his lost son, Michael Richards, actor… a.ka. as Kramer.
New photo albums
I have uploaded 3 new albums.
One is from the AEPI party last week.
The other one is from a barbecue we had at Chai’s place some time ago.
Last but not least, a few pictures we took in Mexico last weekend on my trip to Monterrey.
As usual, I’ll remove the albums some time in the near future so save anything you want. Don’t forget to post your comments. Also, if you want, email me for higher quality versions of the photographs.
Enjoy!
NI-Eagles Website added to Links sidebar

Shana Tova!
Happy 5764!
I went to Monterrey for Rosh Hashana. Yossy, Tomer and Carlos came with me. Funny to take an israeli to Mexico and all he gets to eat is Yiddish food (*very* good Yiddish food). Yossy had his first gefilte fish and he liked it.
All in all a very good start for a new year.
Austin City Limits
Last Saturday we went to the second Austin City Limits Music Festival. This huge three day event is hosted in Zilker Park. Why did I go on Saturday (and not on Sunday, when R.E.M. played)?
To see Café Tacvba, of course. They are, I think, the best band in México today. The concert was excellent and much better in every aspect than anything else I saw at the festival. To bad it was so short.
New Powerbooks
Today at Apple Expo Paris, Mr. Jobs himself introduced a new 15″ Aluminum Powerbook. Small speedbumps for the 12 inch and 17 inch machines were also announced. Overall, I’m not impressed. The Powerbook line is now so far behind in performance to the Power Mac G5 line that it’s not even funny.
This could change soon.
They also introduced a wireless keyboard and mouse. This is the coolest Bluetooth one-button mouse ever :). If only my iBook had Bluetooth….
