  • Hosting A Party For 1 Billion Friends

    Mark Zuckerberg wrote yesterday: We just passed an important milestone. For the first time ever, one billion people used Facebook in a single day. On Monday, 1 in 7 people on Earth used Facebook to connect with their friends and family. I’m not even sure I can completely understand these numbers anymore. They are way…

  • The Long And Winding Road

    The Long And Winding Road

    I’m currently waiting at the airport in Turin, waiting to fly back home in England. How did I ended up here? Well, yesterday I drove all the way down from London to Turin. A 14-hours-long-day, mainly spent on the scorching French motorway after leaving the British rain (surprise!) behind.   So why did I do…

  • Year In Review: The Best Podcasts Of 2014

    Year In Review: The Best Podcasts Of 2014

    Podcasts have always been a big thing for me. They are my companion while commuting to work, a relief while doing routing chores in the house. They are a kind of sanity check and many times I prefer them to simply listening to music. With podcasts you can always learning new stuff, and especially with…

    It Still Seems Like Magic

    I know this will probably sound as a cheesy post, so be it. Yesterday morning I flew back home for the holidays and since it has been a while since last flight, some of the first-time-flight-amazement got to me! What I always find fascinating it’s the ease with which you can win gravity and cross…

  • My 15 Minutes Of Internet Fame

    My 15 Minutes Of Internet Fame

    It all started very innocently yesterday night when I started going through some old pictures, to see if I could find something interesting to re-edit and share. I usually try to edit and publish pictures as soon as I take them, but I also have a big catalog of older pictures that are sitting on…

  • Gentlemen Of The Road

    Gentlemen Of The Road

      Tonight I went to the Mumford & Sons concert in London. To summarize it using just one word I would say: energy. There’s a lot of energy in the air, both from the stage and from the public. If you know M&S songs, you know that they are full of instrumental-only section where they…

  • Circuit Of The Americas

    Yesterdays has been the official coming back of F1 in the USA and I have to admit that it has been a good one. F1 always had a strange relationship with the US, where the racing sport is mainly focused around NASCAR. The result of this was that F1 never had a true circuit built…

  • Staying Creative

    Today I want to set a new challenge for myself. It’s a new writing challenge and I hope you’ll like it as muc as I do. Allow me to explain myself better. I’m a follower of the Read & Trust Network, which is a place that gathers together some of the best independent writers on…
