With BarcampLjubljana just a week away, we’re also looking into providing T-Shirts for speakers (as an extra incentive to speak). Since I’ve been at the number of events, I always wondered how organizers figure out how many different sizes to order and what would be optimal sizes distribution to keep most people happy.

Here are my notes from lecture by Marko Mrdjenovic: Jaz sem POSH, pa ti? at @kiberpipa @wwwh. What’s POSH and a short history?

December 2008 finally ended and I can proudly say that I’m still running. More determined and for longer then before. This month’s total sum is 97.8 km (~60 miles).

I’m working on some visualizations and I want to achieve the look of Last.fm visualization lastgraph3: The great thing about this is that Andew Godwin, author of the site open sourced the underlying library – Graphication. Since I’m an OS X user, I decided to make the whole thing work on my system – Leopard […]

Image by `michelleBlack via Flickr Playing with new movie recommendation engine Jinni, I’ve stumbled upon a new TV show/series to watch – Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. It was recommended to me because I’m really enjoying Tina Fey‘s 30 Rock show. Both shows are dealing with prime time live shows from perspective of the […]

Image by ahinsajain via Flickr I’ve stumbled upon a Bollywood movie – Fashion, directed by Madhur Bhandarkar with Priyanka Chopra, a lead role as Meghna Mathur. It’s set in a glamorous Mumbai and tells a story of aspiring fashion model’s road to sucess and downfall. It didn’t really impress me overall, but I did notice […]
I’ve always been a bit of methodology junkie, so imagine my delight when I stumbled upon this great Beta E-book on design methodologies. Author Hugh Dubberly walks us over 100 different processes and methodologies in his book How do you design? Having this kind of resource always with you must be really handy if you’re […]
