Snake’s lair

God! I love these things! Thanks to developers - they rock!

Here we have an easter egg in Adobe Flash 8. Go to Help -> About Flash Professional and try to click on the dot above “i” in the word “Macromedia”. It’s really small so you spend a few seconds. But, when you hit it properly the window will show you the screen (look inside this post) and you can play 6 old games!

Found it here.

Now I have such really cool brands like Nokia in my clients (I did a flash-presentation for them, later will put it in the portfolio), Danone (fantastic, mega cool flash presentation with a lot of video and drive - this will be shown to all Danone-Bolshevik offices in Russia) and Bijoux De Paris (latest fashion shooting with the very happy client afterwards)! Stay tuned! I got a lot of potential to get cool brands into my portfolio!

Two months ago I found this radio on iTunes. Now I don’t have time to listen to something else. This radio is fantastic! I didn’t know that I loved trance so much! Of course I liked it and listened it from time to time: dance trance, techno trance, psychodelic trance… But right now I don’t listen anything except this radio. When I’m working - I listen, when I’m back home - I listen again, when I go to work - I listen it in my mp3 player. I’m packed with trance now. I discovered for me a lot of new names and styles. Btw, the DJs talk there in greek of course and now I love this language. It’s so mild in accent and interesting.

Here’s how to find it on iTunes:

Watched this movie recently. Wow! That was a very interesting intepretation of a Stephen King’s tiny story on 4 pages. Cusack was good here. Really good. It was his own movie. He played there as he wanted. I really felt I was in that room with him alone. The intense and the suspense was very well created and standed out through the whole movie. 2 minutes of Samuel L. Jackson were very cool and played his role like a charm. He was strong there. Like in Pulp Fiction: “The path of the righteous men is beset on all sides…”

Recommended to watch in dark and alone.

I’ve bought recently this phone. My god! It’s a fantastic gadget! First of all it’s so stylish and slim that I can’t understand now how I was working with my previous phones. They’re looking for me disgusting at least. I love this phone! SonyEricsson did a fantastic job! When I put out of my pocket it and press a button I feel erected. Btw, the black version of this phone sucks. And the listening of music here sucks as well. But I have an mp3 playere and I don’t need it.

Secondly, the interface of the phone is outstanding as well. It’s usability is 10 out of 10. Everything is understandable immediately, the menus laid out perfectly, the animation and the icons are nice to look at, the skins are admirable. The buttons on the phone seem a little bit small but in real life they’re very usable and cool. The illumination of the buttons in darkness show the figures and letters very good. I don’t know what to say else. The price is high. Yes. But iPhone sucks here twice in comparing.

When people (even high-paid and bussinessmen)  see this phone coming out of my pocket they immediately take a notice of it and ask what is that nice thing.
