I was watching the other day a movie. It’s not important what movie it was, what is important is the movie pictured a smart and cool character. Well… the problem was that I did not consider him to be quite so smart. There were certain situations where I thought he could have behaved better. 
Now I’m just bragging.
OK. But now let’s be serious about it. How smart a book character can be. Well, I guess, not smarter then the author who portray him. But a good book is not required to have a smart character. There are books written to be funny, to inspect the human mind or soul or whatever. But there are books in which the action revolves around a character, a strong character, a smart character. He defines the book.
I’m a S.F. fan and one of the characters that have impressed me is was Hari Sheldon from the Foundation series written by the Isaac Asimov. But hey, he was a university professor with a PhD in chemistry and with over 500 volumes written. So, I may say, quite a smart man. No wander his characters are very well written. And the list can continue.

I’m about to finish the master courses in taking right now and I’ve just choose the subject for my final examination paper: Web services for a modern educational system. It sounds quite big and basically I have only a vague idea about what am I suppose to do. Wish me luck.

I wanted to place on my site some pictures that I took at SIAB 2005. I thought at first to search for a free image gallery made in php but after that initial moment I have decided to create one myself.
So, today, to be “on the stre@m”, I’ve made an AJAX image gallery. It’s a simple and rough one but it has the nice feature of not refreshing the page content. The RPCs are made to a php page that reads the necessary informations from a database and delivers them back to the JavaScript.
And that is all for now. In time I will improve this utility on my site.
