Pink Floyd's Richard Wright defeated by cancer

Today Pink Floyd's self-taught pianist and keyboardist Richard Wright has left the scenes. Here is a video taken in the late '60 capturing Pink Floyd playing "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun" a song in which keyboards play a really central role and "Let there be more Light", them both taken from their second album.

And here one of Richard Wright most recent appearances playing with David Gilmour a song taken from one of his solo albums.

Hope to work with you again soon Andrea

There's not so much to say about it... simply put it's one week since Andrea has left his position in our department. Hope we'll find a way to work together again soon ;)

Good luck Andrea

Hail to Steve Jobs

Yesterday in San Francisco the latest Apple keynote has taken place. Whoever has followed the news (ops,the rumors I should have said maybe) since the former Apple event that introduced the iPhone 3G until today, has surely heard/read worrying gossips about Steve Jobs health status.

It is funny/reassuring to reckon the very first slide has been the one you can see above :).

The keynote has not been that interesting, but Steve remains one of the greatest innovators of our era.

Enthusiastically sharing ideas

Today I've met for the first time after the summer holidays an old friend of mine, Stefano, a guy I always love to share ideas with. We have covered a lot of topics, ranging from our own private lives to our expectations of things to come both in the near and remote future, music, arts, cinema and obviously computer science.

He is a truly sharp guy, and every time with talk to each-other something good happens. This time I have enthusiastically shared with him my own experience of working on a brand new GWT-based project. Due to my excitement he finally advised me to create a group of tech-enthusiast people focused on GWT and its adoption for implementing new web-projects. It is useless to say that in a moment that proposal has become a reality.

Everyone interested in the idea can join this public group and share his/her experience with whoever will reach the group surfing the web. This group is meant to be a building-knowledge experience and I'd love it to be as much open as possible.

If you feel like interested in you can obviously join the group
