Grooveshark And Discovering New Songs

Well, long time has been passed since I wrote the last entry, and I attribute that to the lack of time and will (because I have several entries in the pipeline). But hey, today is the day (?), to make a quick post, we're going to talk about this thing that I "discovered" recently.
Basically, the idea is to use Grooveshark to create a playlist from a theme based in a single song that you really like (fiuush!). Of course, when we talk about Grooveshark, we are talking about music in the cloud, something that today is somewhat common (less common is to have music offline in your harddisk, if you know what I mean). The procedure is simple, you search for a song you really like, add it and play it.
Finally (oh, how much effort already!), you click on the button labeled "RADIO OFF" (it'll switch to "RADIO ON").
Maybe you'll need to add some more songs, because only one can't define your song recommendation. But usually one is enough.
That's all. Are you ready to enjoy new good songs that maybe you didn't know their existence? (and perhaps, incidentally, discover new artists).
If your answer is no: Okay :(. Otherwise, go for it!
This entry is not sponsored by Grooveshark (sadly, for me :v).
Musical greetings!

A Wild Artist Appears: Lindsey Stirling

This new entry is dedicated to an artist named Lindsey Stirling. She plays the violin, and mix the music with a little bit of electronica. It's really cool.
I discovered her through a friend (emiok :P). He told me about her after seeing this amazing video of the archer who shoots with his feet (yes, nothing related, but anyways).
First music-video of her that I watched and really liked:

Another one, just to see more about her:

And how to forget this Zelda's song:

Remember, if you like her, just go to youtube and search for Lindsey Stirling.
Greetings and enjoy nice music :).

Downloading Chromium resources from cache using bash

First entry of 2012.
I'm studying a lot, so I left the blog alone by a few weeks. Well, beyond that, today's entry is a simple bash file (linux users only, perhaps windows with cygwin), to save images that are store at cache of the web browser chromium (or google chrome). Why do you want this? Well, you'll know. I used it to get off multiple images (about 1900 :P) from Varda's tumblr, without much effort (?). Anyway, here it is:

I want to thanks to palhmbs for the ilumination (an for almost all the code :P).
The latest version is on github.
Greetings and have a beautiful beginning of this new year.

Merry Christmas 2011 :D

Yes, maybe I can't update the blog too much lastly, but I'll not going forward without doing this, so:

Greetings from the last christmas of 2011 :).

In The Top Of The World

Friday! Yeah!
Tonight we're going to a party!!! Well, yes, I'm going out, because today it's a friend's birthday. I'll leave you with this beauty landscape and with a japanse song, singed in english.

"Lately early", taken in St. James (Missouri) by Jon.B. Very good one I thought. Now to the video part:

It's seems that Shonen Knife means "Boy Knife", by the way. It's a group from Osaka (Japan), dedicated to the pop-punk genre. "Top of the World" can be the best song of their tribute album "If I were a Carpenter" (honestly I don't hear the entire album, but for the comments).
I wish you a very good and energic weekend!

People are Awesome

I steal the title of one of the videos to put it on the title entry, because it's a very awesome quote. Two quick videos, just to feel good. I don't know, but works for me.



If you kept wanting more, look related. Indeed, the second video was the one who made ​​me discover the Gorillaz's song Melancholy Hill.
Awesome greetings.

Colemak or Dvorak? Something better than QWERTY is welcome

I must say sorry by leave the blog alone the past weeks, but it's not as easy as I thought keep it updated, because life keeps running and sometimes I forget to go back.
But well, talking about interesting things this week I began to question the QWERTY keyboard layout, after a class in university. Of course I already knew from many years another keyboard layout (Dvorak) by a friend (Esteban Ordano), but I had never considered using it.
Finally, I don't choosed it, but also not choosed QWERTY, simply I went to Colemak. I guess everyone has their reasons for choosing each other, but my only thought few days ago was to leave the standard distribution.
But may be you can ask "what's wrong with QWERTY?" Well, as I have understood, was designed for people to write slow and avoid typewriters lock up by having their hammers hitting by themselves.
Another curious thing that I encountered, you can write perfectly "typewriter" in QWERTY without moving the hand of top row (try it :P). I don't remember well because it was, but was somewhat curious.

Colemak Keyboard Layout

Colemak I decided to go by, because it maintains a certain essence of QWERTY keyboard (as it relates to hotkeys, ctrl + [cxzvqwa] stay equal) but doing a great improve. But I'm kind of sad that there's not an optimized version for Spanish :( (as Dvorak), but hey, better than the standard is.
Over time I will tell you of my progress.
Greetings or Dpffgukdr in Colemak.
