I did the opposite. Moved from Spain to California few years ago. I was so shocked for the complete lack of sidewalks on San Francisco's South Bay that I ended up taking a complete collection of pictures about it. It's somewhat common in so

Actually I just checked HM #3 on PDF and looks too small on the kindle, barely enough to be read. The three column layout makes the font too tiny. I didn't realized I had an epub version of #2 (converted to kindle format using calibre), whi

I have just finished HM #2 on my 2nd gen kindle. It look gorgeous and it's easy to read even without rotating the screen. I can post some pictures of it somewhere if you need.

San Francisco, CA, offices in the Sunset, very close to Golden Gate Park. Craigslist is hiring i18n/l10n engineers. We are looking for people who can code Perl (or can learn it, I am aware it's not as popular as it used to be), who has expe

You can do the same on mplayer on linux, pressing [ and ] to speed up / down the lecture. Being a non native English speaker, my current comfort zone is between 1.40 - 1.60 x.

same in Spain, you get a tax proposal though a particular computer system called "Padre" ("Father" in Spanish, it always reminds me of Alien 8th main ship computer system), you can then 'fix' or add stuff if you want.
