The 2003 RoboCup competition is about to begin . I’m anxious to know what new developments have been made this year and I expect great things from the Portuguese teams.
I’m specially curious about the developments on the four-legged league as I’m probably going to do some research on that field this year (I already worked a bit on the tactical and strategic part of the problem but not in time to have my code in Padua)
The Mozilla Calendar Roadmap promisses some very nice features:
- The calendar should be fully integrated with the email application, so if someone were to receive a calendar file in their email, it would prompt them to import the data into their calendar.
- You should be able to email invitations to people to inform them and invite them to the event.
- They will be alerted when the event is modified or deleted.
- They will be able to respond via email and have their status automatically imported into the calendar.
IF THEN ELSE - 21+1: A very nice essay on the recent blog hype on Portuguese media.
The Portuguese weblog community has reached critical mass in the last couple of months. Although the discussion may seem passé to people seasoned in the international English-language weblog community, it’s pretty much alive here nowdays, as the pioneering ‘little-elite’ (me included, but I guess the pact that I’m a ‘pioneer’ even though I started blogging in August 2000 says everything about the Portuguese scene) was suddently ripped from its small pedestals (doorstops more like), and replaced by politicians and journalists, mainly right wing, who put themselves on marble collumns as high as the Everest as the newspapers in which they write don’t stop publicizing their Blogspot URLs, which contain walled gardens that many times lead nowhere but to their journalist and poltician friends’ weblogs.
