Cory Lievers' personal blog

I came across this contest on uneasyslience, where they are giving away a Nintendo Wii.
Live in Canada or the US? Why not spread the word and hope for a win. I am.

Cheers.

I came across this page today about some actual questions from Microsoft Interviews. I haven't read them all yet, just browsed through them. I cam across the question:

If you could gather all of the computer manufacturers in the world together into one room and then tell them one thing that they would be compelled to do, what would it be?

and wondered what would happen if my answer was: Provide an option to pre-install Linux.

Do you think I would get the job?

The Microsoft Interview Questions

I was so shocked and saddened to hear about the loss of my colleague and friend, Jon. You will be remembered always, rest in peace.

If you want a Producer credit in a movie, all you have to do is donate some money. This is happening through The 1 Second Film.

Woo hoo, congratulations to me. I've just reached Level 4 of Yahoo! Answers. You can view my profile here.

For those of you who don't know what Yahoo! Answers is:

It's the place to ask questions and get real answers from real people. It’s fun and educational because you can ask questions on any topic from the serious to the not so serious. And when you know an answer, you can help others by giving answers to their questions. It's all about sharing — what you know and what you want to know. So, why keep your gnawing questions and brilliant answers to yourself? Jump in and start sharing!

It's definitely a great place to go and ask questions you need answers. And if you have an expertise in a specific area (or even just know 'something' about something), help others out by submitting your own answers.

Cheers!

Well another year in cinema has come full circle with the Academy Awards tonight. As in a previous post I listed my picks on who the winners of the Oscar's would be. It seems that I have done a little better than some of the other award shows. Out of 24 categories I got 11 correct, 46%. Yay!

So my buddy Roberto called me up on Friday with this extra ticket to a Fruko y sus Tesos concert. It's led by this guy Joe Arroyo who apparently is a pioneer in the salsa and samba world. I figured 'what the heck', free concert, a little culture -- how bad can it be? Well, the music wasn't bad at all, in fact it was quite good. But, everyone (on and off stage) was talking in spanish. 4 hours of not knowing what was being said. Oh well, the concert was good anyways.

And I bought this spanish instructional cd set this weekend. Maybe I'll learn something.

Anyways, thanks for the culture Roberto...

Don't forget that the Oscars, the 79th Annyual Academy Awards, is airing this Sunday, February 25, 2007.

Very exciting
