State of the map

Fuente: stateofthemap.org 2009-02-05

Open Street Map, es una forma libre de generar mapas libres del mundo. Tienen una plataforma en la que puedes subir los puntos que has recogido con tu GPS. ¿Quién no ha echado de menos alguna calle, callecita...en un callejero?pues puedes capturar ese punto con tu GPS y completar el mapa, libre claro!Aún hay mucho trabajo por hacer!

Pues la State of the Map, es una conferencia de caracter internacional para promover precisamente este tipo de trabajo, libre y colaborativo a mi entender. Este año tendrá lugar en Holanda el 10,11 y 12 de julio...

Me parece una idea muy buena, no sabia que existiera. Es una forma muy sencilla de participar dentro de la comunidad del software libre, que no requiere demasiado esfuerzo y que, como todo lo que se desarrolla dentro de esta comunidad, permite que todos nos beneficiemos

Un viaje a mi interior: Up and Forward

Travel 2018 Mi sueño de descubrir el mundo creo que empezó cuando viajé a Ecuador con un proyecto universitario de la ONU. Antes de aquella experiencia en 2006, mi mayor ilusión era regresar, el sueño de casi todo emigrante. Regresar a su tierra y recuperar todo aquello que dejó. Pensaba entonces que regresaría para compartir fiestas familiares que me estaba perdiendo, ser la mejor amiga de mis primas y salir con mi hermana a hacer ejercicios todos los domingos antes de la misa. La experiencia en Ecuador aquel 2006 dejó en mi la semilla de descubrir aquellos lugares donde pudiera contribuir. Descubrir un lugar tiene mucho mayor significado para mi que visitar. Descubrir es otro nivel de conocer un lugar, es interactuar con su gente, vivir su cultura, es amar su riqueza. Descubrir un lugar para mi es crecer como persona, en mi camino de conocerme como mujer. Para mi cada nuevo kilometro de viaje es un mundo. A personas como yo "inmigrante, ecuatoriana, mujer" las probabilid

Ear Infection in adults

Ok, at my age I should not be having annual ear infections. But I do, and after a couple of times here are my #healthtips. The first time I had ear infection I was 34! never ever in my life I've had that. My sister used to be the one of infections. I was more quarterly-colds type of child. But since they are coming late, here are a few things you should consider when having an ear infection 1. You will have fever, and with that body-ache. 2. Your ear will hurt, terribly! The first night is the worst, forget about sleeping. 3. Medications work! I'm busy all the time, I consider myself a workaholic, and I love it! So being sick is not something I want, because I would not take "sick days". Consequently I need something that works, too many things to do, and too little time to not sleep well. Consider this BEFORE the infection: 1. Do not use cotton swabs! Please don't. I don't like to feel the water in my ear after a shower, and so I over use them. Until i

Home buying process, the real deal

One day you wake up and think "I'm gonna buy a house" And keep reasoning "it is time to use all the time and effort and savings in something more durable, a real investment". That one day for me meant almost two years of digging, reading, researching, saving and most importantly building my credit. Here's a summary of what I learned when I made a first try... Workshop - you'll need this in the future, make sure is HUD approved. It is a workshop that explains what you're about to start. I recommend this. It took me a few months, because I dedicated 8 minutes some days....I think it's intended to take you 8 hours. eHome America was the provider I chose, and I got a voucher for the free workshop from a non-profit that provides resources for new buyers. Counseling - After you complete the workshop, bring your certificate of completion and meet with a counselor. I chose to go to the same agency that gave me the voucher, because they already knew
