Una columna que siempre aporta mucho …

Si, me refiero a la columna de Santiago Álvarez de Mon que se publica en el Expansión los miércoles (http://cgi.expansion.com/buscador/archivo_expansion.html?searchselector=0&todas=0&q=alvarez+de+mon&tipo=&info=). Acabo de leer la columna del 30 de Junio sobre “La gestión del jefe”, y me doy cuenta de lo afortunados que son los alumnos del IESE al tenerle como profesor; cuanta sabiduría, cuanta lógica, cuanto ‘savoir-faire’!. Ánimo Santiago que con personas como tu en España saldremos adelante, seguro!.

New Theme, and a very good Lyrics

I know, I know, long time no see, uhhh; well it was time for a theme change, and after a bit of digging around, I choose this very nice one from templatelite.com. You will have to agree with me it is awesome! and free :-D .

Added also a text widget with a Lyrics scroller with my (yet) favorite song: Meet me halfway from Black Eye Peas. I do love this song.

What else? well, still trying to understand what is happening to the world :-( , and to guess when we will get out of this mess.

In the meantime … have fun and health. Cheers.

What do you think?

A good friend of my working for a big American company received a few days ago a few rules to be followed by the book from their COO.
Talking about cost control, this is what he said: “…I am proud of this organization that we are focused on maintaining our profitability in the face of difficult market conditions. I know that expense and headcount reductions are very painful things, however in tough times only 3 things matter: Having the right strategy, executing it well and surviving. If we don’t do the third, the other two don’t matter. …”
What else can be said? What do you think?
Cheers.

Windows Home Server

A few weeks ago, I built my own Windows Home Server running an OEM license bought in US. This is a big tower (from an old computer of my), a very cheap motherboard (able to run AM2+ cpus), an AMD XP processor (cheap as well), 4Gig of Ram, a USD20 pci-e video board … and 4TB of disks.
If you do not know what I am talking about, have a look at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/windowshomeserver/default.mspx. The server is taking care of 2.5TB of data, most of it on duplicated shares, backing up 5 PC/Laptops at home, and running a few very useful add-ins (http://forum.wegotserved.com/index.php?autocom=downloads).
I strongly suggest you give it a try.
Drop me a note if you have questions/comments.

Mi Blog hackeado …

Pues si, mi blog ha sido hackeado de forma vil y cruel, hasta el punto que lo corrompió del todo. No se que le encuentran algunas personas el chafar el trabajo de otros (máxime cuando este blog no tiene casi nada de actividad).

En fin; después de algo de trabajo y la instalación de la ultima release de wordpress, aqui estamos de nuevo.

Enjoy.

Homepage updated

Since I opened www.cordero.com, I hadn’t many opportunities to remakeup the site. Now, thanks (again) to my son, here is the new face, completely rebuilt, using the new ajax technology.

The portal looks great, is much more usable, and new dialogs forÃdownload and contact look so nice :)

Have a look and tell me what you think!.

Los niños nunca mienten …

Ayer me dice mi mujer que cree que el niño no merienda bastante porque viene con mucha hambre del cole y que es un problema porque después no cena.

Entonces esta mañana, camino del colegio, le digo:

Hijo, tienes que merendar mucho en el cole porque sino no vas a crecer y te vas a quedar pequeño

Y tu Papa?

No Papa ya no necesita comer mucho porque ya no puede crecer mas …

Si Papa, tu ya no puedes crecer mas porque ya estas muy gordo. Eres como PAPA ONEL!

Los niños nunca mienten …

This blog is not ment to focus only on technology, or family, or cooking or … but a little bit of everything which may seems interesting to me to be published and known on the net or good/bad enough to be put on written …

Let’s see how it goes.

By the way, thanks for reading this …
