The Israeli Government Hackathon

As promised, an event has been set up to allow people to meet in a temporary, yet completely real work environment.

The Govt. Hack-a-thon is an event purposed at improving the Open Knesset website, allowing better monitoring of the Israeli legislative authority. From measuring the fulfillment of policies down to observing work habits of specific parliament members, the prospects are endless.

The hack-a-thon will take place this upcoming weekend. It will be held in a small house in the Israeli countryside, overlooking several acres of plowed fields. The hebrew registration page can be found here. If anyone requires English, please let me know.

Slimy, yet satisfying

“Slimy yet satisfying” is what Simba said in “The Lion King” when forced to feed on worms.

In a way, Microsoft & Oracle are mega-marts for those worm cans.

Software is just another business. Let’s not start sucking each others’ dicks just yet.

The Question of The Address Book

Is there a difference between your GMail contact list and your Facebook friends? When I had to choose one of these sources to use as my phonebook, I had to answer that question for myself, to decisive consequence.
