Coffee is a very important pleasure of life for me. I started drinking instant coffee when I was 15 years old, and when I reached 30 I switched to filter.  My day has not begun unless I have had a mugful of my favorite blend at home, and I usually have at least one more mug later on during the day.  (These numbers represent a significant reduction compared to the four or five mugs that I used to drink every day until recently.)

Because the email address that I gave them a couple of years ago when I registered with them (enfocus@michael.gr) has started receiving spam, which means that it ended up in the hands of spammers.

I am not under the impression that I am gifted in writing fictional stories, let alone writing them in English, which is not my mother tongue;  I am only posting these short stories here because I think that they are not so bad as to deserve to be kept forever hidden.

In case you have been wondering what I have been up to recently, go to http://www.darkfallonline.com and check out the project that I am working on!

This is the web site of a Massively Multiplayer On-line Role Playing Game (MMORPG) which is being developed by Razorwax & Aventurine (Norwegian and Greek companies respectively) and which is much anticipated by the international gaming community.

George W Bush has been Google-bombed!

If you visit Google nowadays, and try searching for the words “miserable failure”, the first entry that will come up is the biography of the president on the website of the White House!

The bad news is that while pursuing my own business ideas, small contracts were hard to come by, so eventually I ran out of money and I had to find a regular job. 

The good news is that this is an absolutely unique job, which enables me to work on fun stuff within a very cool international team, and even the pay is halfway decent (well, by greek standards that is…) so I am quite happy.
