Programming lessons in Greek

Dimme — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 02:49:12 +0000

I started a new website with programming lessons in Greek. Because I want the website to get listed on Google I need to link to it from my website, or any other website, and this is what I do ;P

Here you go, spread the word and even English lessons might show up in the future =)

Roger Waters in Athens

Dimme — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 19:06:53 +0000

I was at one of Roger’s concerts in Athens on the 9:th of July. The show is going to be released as a DVD and therefore all the mobile phones and digital cameras were forbidden, because of the flashlights that would destroy the images on the wall.

Anyway, someone somehow managed to sneak in a camera and record Comfortably Numb, hopefully without any flashlight.

Panasonic Lumix FT3

Here is a sample video of my new Panasonic Lumix FT3. It can record in full HD and it geotags the pictures and videos automatically with the build-in GPS receiver. The greatest part is that it works 12 meters under water. I will get some cool fishy videos this summer =)

Circular Polarizer Filter

Dimme — Tue, 10 May 2011 16:05:00 +0000

Today I received a CPL (circular polarizer filter) for my DSRL. The one I made myself a few weeks ago got scratched very easily and I didn’t find any efficient way to attach it to my camera.

Here are some example pictures I took with and without the filter. Now I can say one thing for sure: The filter is never getting off my camera =)

Pics on left: With the filter
Pics on right: Without the filter

Greek postal codes database

Dimme — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 23:12:13 +0000

I’m doing a project were I need to have access to all the Greek postal codes. I couldn’t find them anywhere on the Internet so by personal labor, sweat, and years of hard work I compiled my own complete database of ZIP/postal codes in Greece.
After doing all that I thought what if somebody else needs this information on the future, so here I release the database under the following license:

“You may use the database for anything you want, even if you earn money from it. The only thing you must do is mention my name and website in any place/program where you use this database, directly or indirectly.”
