Hans Rosling on stage

“The old man and Google – A short story by Hans Rosling”

Highlights:
- regrets on denying his son money to buy a faster computer to work on the animation aspects of presenting the bubbles (1998)
- After presenting Gapminder in California, among congrats and praisals by the audience, Google’s Larry Page come’s up and asks “Who wrote the code?” (2006)

Willkomenn tillbaka!

Well, my journey is soon coming to an end. While I’m still in Zurich as I type these lines, it won’t be before a few hours that I will be back in the lovely north. For the past 3 weeks that I’ve been doing one of the things I love most, traveling (combining work and pleasure, specially since work is pleasure). In travel order: London, Athens, Paris, a small detour in Stockholm and then Zurich. Lots of stories to share (and not), lots of people I met, a few pictures i took and above all, lots of food I ate . Hopefully, lots of posts to come within the coming days.

Greeks in Stockholm

Η ιδέα ανήκει σε Έλληνες bloggers που κατοικούν στο Λονδίνο (Greeks in London). Η πρωτοβουλία των παιδιών συνάδει με αυτό που θέλαμε από καιρό να κάνουμε για την παραμυθένια Στοκχόλμη, και να που με αφορμή την προσπάθεια τους (η πληροφορία ήρθε μέσω twitter από τον Γκρινιάρη) είπαμε να κάνουμε κι εμείς την αρχή.

Ώπερ και εγένετο, το Greeks in Stockholm είναι εδώ!
