Layout refresh – as soon as the new K2 Theme will be released

April 4, 2006

I just stumbled upon Khoi Vinhâ€™s Web Site. Awesome design – just black & white and a very clear screen design. I’m just waiting for the next release of K2 and then i will do a little overhaul to my stylesheet. “Less is more” is now may new design role.

Ok. Just a quick interesting fact before you go to sleep. Ask yourself. Are you willing to spend $ 400 USD upfront for a ordinary Postpaid SIM-Card? No included minutes, no Voice Mailbox, no MMS, no GPRS, simple nothing included…just SMS as Value added service. And the best thing is, if you come the decision to buy a card, are you willing to wait more then 6-months for your SIM-card?

Yes or No? That not a question in Iran. Just 8 Mio. customers have registered as new applicants for a SIM-Card. That’s a nice income for the ~~mobile operator~~ government.

“…the government obliged the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology to compensate for part of its budget deficit by registering new applications for mobile phone SIM cards.” Source. That’s the Iranian solution to reduce the public budget deficit.

I’m still alive

It’s definitely time to post something. I’m still alive. The last posts is several weeks old – or should i say months. I was a little bit lazy to post regular updates to the Site. It’s always a question of self-motivation. After working the whole day on client stuff, i’m most often not in the mood to write a novel.

Ok, to keep it short. I’m back in Teheran again for the last phase of the project. As always on a project, the last week will be very demanding. Finishing and polishing all the stuff. Prepare the presentations & reports for the final meeting. Incorporate the latest customer feedback.

I’ll be back on eastern. Stay tuned.
