Let give a chance to twitter

May 28th, 2008

Despite the fact that I usu­ally develop cool web stuff for other guys, I’m not really into the whole web2.0 thing. Although I sub­scribed to ser­vices like flickr, last.fm and google reader shares, I don’t use them very much (nor I pub­li­cize them a lot, although there’s a whole sec­tion for them on the right).

This time I decided to give to a web2 app a new chance of get­ting me addicted: twit­ter. Quite sure that I won’t last that much, but at least I tried… See you on twitter!

As prob­a­bly many of you already knows, on May 31 will begin the Django dash com­pe­ti­tion. Djan­go­dash is:

[…] is a chance for Django enthu­si­asts to flex their coding skills a little and put a fine point on “per­fec­tion­ists with dead­lines” by giving you a REAL dead­line. 48 hours from start to stop to pro­duce the best app you can and have a little fun in the process.

I’ll be par­tic­i­pat­ing, so if you haven’t reg­is­tered yet, do it now! And don’t forget to check out the cool prizes :)

  • So wordpress was silently modifying HTTP request headers and I was getting a 400 when fetching Pownce RSS. Now everything works as expected on my blog, shame on WP. Nov 9, 3:58pm #
