Fizy [Quick Review]

March 24th, 2009 | 2 Comments | Posted in Web Apps

I just found Fizy a simple website where you can search for a songs, listen to it.

PROS

  • * Simple, clean design.
  • * Video option.
  • * Good results.
  • * A short link to share on twitter, facebook, etc.

CONS 

  • * No playlist options.
  • * No share via embed available.

I have been looking for a site like this for sometime now, just missing the playlist to become a BIG FAN.

That’s it, I told you it was quick.

Russian music sites

Besides all the dispute of the legality of these websites, which I think it’s hard to define since sale the contents from Russia it’s 100% legal and of course all the servers are located in Russia, I’m amazed by the difference in price of an album from a Russian site vs Amazon or Walmart.

For example the latest album from Coldplay, Viva la Vida

* Legalsounds.com [RU] = $0.99

* Mp3Fiesta [RU] = $2.14

* Amazon = $8.99

* Walmart = $9.22

So, if you aren’t really concern about The Killers receiving some of your money for they latest album Day and Age, you can go to one of the many Russian sites out there for a good deal, but I suggest you use one that accepts PayPal or use a credit card with a small limit to avoid any problem.

Snowboard Day 01

December 15th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Canada Experience, Trips

After a week of preparation getting the snow pants, waterproof gloves, find the right location for beginners and watching some YouTube videos of snowboard 101, finally yesterday we went to Glen Eden @ Milton to do some snowboard for the first time, and it’s was pretty good for a newbie’s like us.

After the first 25 falls we all (Laura, Francisco and I) start going down the hill in a pretty decent way, without falling.

Here is a video of Laura showing some skills

P.S.: this morning we all feel the pain of doing some snowboard for the first time.
