obtorto collo: history of a filter

28-02-2009

5 hours ago I became the 3,000,001th user of facebook. As a nerd, I created accordingly a filter on gmail to correctly label every mail from facebook.

Better: 5 hours after I became the 3,000,001th user of facebook, I received 36 emails. As a nerd, I modified the newly created filter on gmail to skip the Inbox and archive them all.

Pirate Bay Trial: The Hottest Ticket in Stockholm

Today I bought a scalped seat in a court of justice for the first time in my life. The Pirate Bay courtroom was full. But locally famous Swedish author Sigge Eklund whispered in my ear that he had an offer for three seats after the intermission. The price would be about $60 each. We met in a corner of the hallway and finalized the transaction with three young men who were leaving. I was in! This pretty much captures the rock-star quality of The Pirate Bay trial. 

Good luck, guys.
