Sawadika (that’s hello in Thai)…
What could be better than fresh pineapple juice? The answer is fresh pineapple juice in the morning on one of the beautiful Andaman ocean beaches in Phuket, Thailand. Well, I had to make do with the fresh pineapple juice and a walk down to the OPSEC pavilion, but still not that [...]

Mandalay Bay hotel was the location of the annual US Check [...]

Report from CeBIT2008

As happens every year, several representatives of Commtouch chose to freeze their #%*@’s off, sleep in sub-standard accommodations, and wear out their shoe-leather at that “is it a tradeshow or is it a city” otherwise known as CeBIT. It’s the event people love to hate. However, creature-comforts aside, CeBIT is a great location for [...]
