Somehow I can not get over this irony: Blogging is probably part of the reason why I have got my job, not only because I got excited about the internet through it but also because I spent hours reading other blogs and thus educated myself about so many things concerning this medium. Still, since I am working at Google, I spend more hours than ever before online but somehow still can not manage it to update my blog regularly. In the meanwhile, my girlfriend became quite a passionate blogger and it's well worth to check out her blog.

However, altogh I take mostly care of different stuff in my job (have a look here and here), I still have to do somehow with blogging, because I coordinate marketing efforts for this little, precious blog here.

When I am already doing some publicity: check out the web albums of Picasa. It's not that I say the product is perfect, but it has great potential. My fotos you can find here.

And last but not least, some videos from Google Video:

- James Bond Trailer
- Funny I
- Funny II

A really good site for people who like video, and other people.

Worth to take a look at...


P.S.: It is crazy hot right now in Madrid. 35 degrees Celsius at 11 in the night!

Interesting article in the International Herald Tribune about the French blog phenomenon.

Hey everyone,

sure, it's pretty hot everywhere in Europe right now, but everytime I look on the weather map, Madrid shows up as the hottest city on the continent. It's really crazy hot here right now.

Yesterday I had the honour to try as one of the first people in Europe deliciously juicy chicken at the inauguration of the first Pollo Campero branch in Europe. I always have been a big fan of this Guatemalan fast food chain and I am really glad it came now to the city where I live. Especially, because in terms of home delivery Madrid is not a city with a lot of choice. Pizza and Chinese food, that's pretty much it. Here is one of the few articles (in Spanish) that report about the opening of the new store. I actually wonder whether there is a publicity strategy for the arrival from Pollo Campero in Europe because there is actually very few info to find on the net (not even on their website). It was really stunning for me that not even the people in the Call Center from Telepizza, the joint venture partner from Campero, knew about anything related to the topic.

Well, hopefully they have a lot of success anyways, I am sure it is good publicity for my beloved Guatemala.
