6 Cloudy wallpapers

Stefanos Karagos | July 28, 2008

Just before my summer vacations, I created 6 wallpapers [all at 1600x1200] using Wordle's cloud creator and some Photoshoping ;-)
GTD Jason Calacanis
John F. Kennedy Guy Kawasaki
Karagos at Diigo Barak Obama

Each of these walls has its own story:
1. Created using Wikipedia's article about the Getting Things Done system
2. Created using the text of the latest Jason Calacanis's newsletter [the 2nd after his desicion to close his blog]
3. Created using the text of John F. Kennedy's speech, well known as "Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You"
4. Created using text from Guy Kawasaki's CV at Visualcv.com
6. Created using the tags of my latest Diigo links
5. Created using Barak Obama's latest speech in Berlin.

It's very interesting to see not only the words but also the shape of each cloud...
Enjoy!

Cloud computing mania for hosting

Stefanos Karagos | February 24, 2008

MT started before some years with the Grid. Almost the same time Amazon's S3 and EC2 come up, starting for the on-demand web services, a new era.
And now Rackspace comes with an expensive way [Mosso, even they don't support file access via SSH] to try to compete with an other player: Joyenet which gives free hosting for Facebook applications developers. Personally, after my bad experience with MT's Grid I'm not convinced that except Amazon's services, all the others really works.
