The black hole…
It’s been a long time since my last post here. It seems it gets less and less of a habit. It’s probably because I am not sure if someone reads my posts. Anyway, here goes a new one. Lately, I’ve been playing the game Tiny Room Stories: Town Mystery on my Android phone. Lately, I […]
Euclidea is a very interesting game. Something new, a different game, educational, fun, difficult, challenging. A great game. If you like geometry, if you loved how to build geometric constructions on paper, but always made them blur, you will love this game.
Usually I do not play much on my Android phone. But when waiting for someone or something, to have a good puzzle is worth it. Slitherlink, as you can look up in the Internet, is not an idea of this app author. It is a known puzzle, and if you look up in Google Play, […]

After buying the Samsung Galaxy S3, I installed FlipBoard. The idea is pretty cool, but I am having some trouble using it. First, it crashes from time to time. I couldn’t find out when/why does it crash, but it seems that it is related to the way it checks for new news, and some extra […]
