Few months ago I made a little tour of Europe, and (among various places I visited) I went to spent some quality time in Amsterdam. Here I had the pleasure of spending some time with Albert van den Broek, CGO of Figlo: Albert is an excellent host, and during a nice dinner at…
Already Sunday evening. It was a weird weekend, partially spent under the influx of powerful pain killers (dentist played alpinist with my jawbone: and no, do not expect any aesthetical improvements). That’s probably the reason for which I recalled this very specific idiosyncrasy I have for the hype around the idea of P-STS,…
Very impressive! I am sure that this great ranking is also thanks to the readers of this blog… so THANKS 🙂 Amazon stats are very volatile (I’ll make a more detailed post about it), but it’s still great. I think this is the best rank we got since publication. I am so glad…

It turns out that the channel9 video on ws-trust was down for (quite?) some time. I am pretty surprised by the number of people that is still checking out that clip! Now it works again, provided that you view it by clicking the download button (which, by the way, points to here) as…
Hurrah 🙂 Caleb and I just went to pick up the big authors package, containing (among other interesting things) our first copies of the book. Below you can see a snapshot (thank you James!) of Caleb and I (let’s see if you can tell who is who ;-)) showing off the fruit of…
