Hi. I am a computer geek who likes the social life, music, food and drinks and moving around the world from time to time.
I write stuff for tech guys on http://lazydev.ildella.net/ and stories about my ventures on http://blog.ildella.net/
Designing is not just about picking the right font or gradient. Stop thinking about design in terms of wire frames or visual style; it is about the product as a whole. Designing is figuring out the purpose of your product and how you orient everything else around it.
Unless you have been living under a non-WiFi connected Internet rock, you've probably heard the hubbub about Pinterest, the Web's new social network darling. It is predominantly lady-dominated, may in fact violate copyrights and definitely does something that Facebook does not.
I spoke to five artists: Marilyn Frank of The Franks, Lauren Levato, Justin Kemerling, Christine Rogers and James Green. They are all using Pinterest to do something

Part of Customer Development is understanding which customers make sense for your business. The goal of listening to customers is not please every one of them. It’s to figure out which customer segment served his needs – both short and long term.

Hi. The startup I'm actively working with since last summer is looking to hire a new software developer to empower the team. We're going good and we're building some pretty cool staff I'm personally very proud of. So here's the announcement, get in touch or spread it!
[updated on Nov 28 2011]
Career Opportunity as Software Developer
We are looking for a software developer to join the current developing team of our startup.
This new venture consists in the launch of an online gaming operator in the videogames industry. The platform is currently entering private beta testing and is planned to launch in Q1 2012.
The product consists in a Web and Mobile application built with cutting edge technologies, trying to bring the videogaming industry models to a new level and aiming to become the reference Cloud platform in the field.
We need a talented and motivated developer, with the right attitude to work in a young and ambitious startup environment. We are building the platform with cutting edge Javascript technologies on the client side, like Backbone.js and WebSockets to name a few, while core platform and external integrations are made with Ruby on Rails and Java running on Heroku, using Mongo, Redis and other technologies behind the scenes. The architecture of the platform is completely Service Oriented so we can built services with language we prefer.
If you're looking for a place where the new stuff are being used and want to drive the technology innovation of the company, faceit.com is that place. As of this, a specific skill set is not our main requirement, but just an ambitious, talented and flexible developer, that aims in being part of a relatively young but strong project appreciating the growth opportunities offered by such an environment.
The position is open for London / Greater London, but we are ready to consider Milan-located developers as well.

Ci sono giorni interminabili, durano tante ore e sono pieni di eventi.
Una buona giornata di lavoro iniziata presto, che prosegue con una
bella serata in cui si va un po' lunghi. O quando viaggi in aereo
verso Ovest. O in qualche nottata passata guidando in autostrada in
improbabili viaggi estivi per approdare al mare all'alba.

March: Tel Aviv.
Thousands of people camped on the streets for weeks. 200 thousands of
people in the street during weekends. Bigger demonstration in Israel
in decades. Also, third Intifada rumors gets louder and louder.

August 15th, Copenhagen. A cafe' in Norrebro.
The city usual activity around me as I prepare for the next week, where the actual kick start of two projects I'll be involved next year will take place in Milano. Just right after that, a two weeks tour in the US, mainly NYC, then the real start in September.

la misura centrale, il «contributo di solidarietà» sui redditi superiori a 90 mila euro, è profondamente ingiusta. Essa infatti colpisce una minoranza di cittadini (poco più dell’1%) che ha due sole colpe: guadagnare più di 4000 euro netti al mese, e pagare le tasse.

Un piccolo giro di boa, sono a meta' della mia attuale permanenza a Tel Aviv.
Nel complesso l'operazione sembra riuscita perfettamente. In tre settimane sono stato completamente concentrato sul bootstrap di una startup (di cui parlero' credo gia' da settimana prossima) senza distrarmi in vicende domestiche o lavorative di casa. Questo immerso nella adorabile atmosfera e nel piacevole clima di questa citta'. Trascorrero' qui altre tre settimane, il sole e' presente, una buona fetta di lavoro fatta, il piano e' di alzare la testa dal computer e iniziare a mostrare in giro l'embrione del prodotto.
