Funniest thing I’ve seen in a while, and at the same time you cannot deny you don’t think it’s true 
The War Between Developers, Designers, and Project Managers
Muscle volume/mass vs Fat
Sort of off the usual topic but a facebook friend (female of course ) recently asked: “How much more does a muscle weight compare to fat of the same volume?”. It got me thinking, recalling all sorts of bullshit stats from the countless men’s health magazines I’ve read. At first I thought I remembered reading that muscle weighs 2-3x more than fat, bull. It wasn’t easy to google this up as people asking this question on teh internets would phrase it: “how much does a pound of muscle weigh compared to a pound of fat”… and the answers being, a pound is a flippin’ pound.

HTC Sensation, the first HTC dual core phone
So after the wet escapades, it was time to piece my life back together (ie. get a new phone) so having turned to HTC just a month before I opted for the HTC sensation.
The HTC Incredible S doesn’t float!
You may recall my post about the Incredible S which I was so happy about – we’ll it’s life span turned out to be less than a month!
I was in Warsaw the past week, both for a wedding and to finalize some paperwork for the startup. In Poland weddings tend to go on for 2-3 days, the days following the main ceremony are called ‘poprawiny’, the English equivalent might be afterparty 
Things at the afterparty started calmly, people curing their hangovers with more alcoholic beverages, mind you it started at 2PM in the blazing sun and many people left the wedding around 7AM. Not even 2 hours later, a mystical beverage called “Woda Gangesa’ or water of the Ganges River was distributed in the form of shots. This seemingly light lemony beverage had a 82% alcohol content, things were obviously going to get out of hand as it was so easy to down.. three more factors, it was hot, there were around 12 inflated golden elephants (bollywood theme) annnnnd there was a lake!
My First SkyDive / Tandem Jump
This past weekend, I had two friends fly in from Copenhagen to visit me in Prague. We had met at the University of Surrey during out undergrad studies – I recall them as being healthily insane and it turned out things haven’t changed when I was told via Facebook that we’re going skydiving during their visit with the message: “Robert, do you have vertigo??”.
Since I was little I’ve been flying quite a lot, but even so I only got over my fear of flying some 3+ years ago – jumping out of a plane was many years ahead of me, if at all! Of all the things in the world, the two that terrify me the most are sharks, and heights. So on my extreme 2 itemed list of things to do, one item remains 
- Diving with great whites

99DESIGNS.COM EXPERIENCE/REVIEW PART #2
It’s been almost a month since I wrote about my initial impressions with 99designs.com. Since then I’ve completed I finally got thru to customer service and they made my contest blind, after receiving around 25 designs, I made my contest guaranteed and managed to find a great designer that made around 10 revisions for me, followed by 8 color variations! Of course, he was the winner of the contest, and I am still in touch with him, as I plan to work with him outside of 99designs to continue improving the website for my upcoming internet startup (soft-launch 2 weeks ! ).
The quick jump from Apple to HTC
I’ve had my Apple iPhone 3GS for just over a year now (although I was not able to use it for the first few months having bought it in the US.. the employees claimed it would work in the “check republic” on O2). I finally dropped it one too many times around 2 weeks ago, cracking the screen. Having heard that you can replace the digitizer with relative ease, I went on to order one from eBay. Today I finally took the time to replace the screen, but managed to destroy the LCD in the process rendering the phone useless (or around $300 worth of repairs..) so I ran out and got myself the relatively new HTC incredible S. Is it incredible? I think it’s too soon to say – but at almost half the price of an iPhone 4 with some better hardware, I thought I’d give it a try.
Basecamp Project Management (basecamphq.com)
Not having had any real experience with project management software other than Microsoft Project at university, and Trac and Redmine at my last job it was time to find something, online based, to help manage the startup process. My partner recommended basecamphq.com – I went ahead and signed up, very straight forward process, dropped my credit card details, went for the Plus Plan for $49/month (30 day free trial) and had my account within minutes.
