Airport transportation at New York

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

If you’re newer or an older traveler for sure when you trip to a new place around the world one of the things hard to find is an adequate transportation system after the landing of your aircraft from the airport to your final destination. In my personal experience take a cab at LaGuardia airport to my friends house was one the bad experiences at my arrivals at NY, specially the high cost of it, but today someone recommends me check this service of transportation called Airlink Shuttle.

In fact this service is some kind of private transportation but at lower cost between the JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark Airports throughout New York City and the surrounding suburbs and vice versa for example shuttle to JFK, all of this using share ride vans.

So I decided definitely in my next trip to NY I use this service ‘cause this one appears as a good and economic option and if you make a roundtrip book using their website you get a discount of $5,oo USD so if I used their services at my last trip to NY I didn’t pay the $30,oo USD from LaGuardia to Manhattan, just $13,oo USD booking on line first of course.

Anyway, that’s the good things to travel to NY; you can always find another better option.

Protecting your credit

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

I was reading at lifelock review an interesting post about credit protection called “life Lock credit protection”.

In this post the people of life lock share an important data about the number of lost transaction during the last six years “65 billion electronic records have been lost in the last six years”, that’s a really big number of transactions lost in the meantime, but the worst part of it, is than this kind of things didn’t happened because a hacker attacks any company to obtain that info, in fact a common human errors happened inside of security specialized companies lik these examples:

In 2005 CardSystems Solutions exposed 40 million Visa, MasterCard and American Express debit and credit card accounts.

In 2006, TJX, owner of TJ Maxx, Marshalls and several other retail stores, lost 94 million records. And if you have been, or currently are in the US military, you may be among the 30 million people whose data was lost.

Just two month ago, Long Island University mailed out 30,000 tax statements with students’ names, addresses and Social Security numbers visible through the envelope window.

That is the kind of things than makes me thinks in get the protection of lifelock, if you want get a promo code or compare this service with other ones, you can do that at value of life lock.

Few weeks ago I renewed the web hosting plan for my weblog with my actually seller, and in fact I have no problems with it, but today I was browsing the internet and someone tells me about this site where kaushal Sheth write about best web hosting compannies and for sure I decide to take a look of it.

Kaushal, write about three different hosting companies offering a reasonable service at a reasonable cost, the firs of them is HostMonster and in fact the price offered by them is very interesting $ 5,95 USD monthly for a Professional web hosting as they call them service plan, the second one is HostGator at the cost of  $ 4,95 USD Monthly they offering a really nice service, and it was a shame but when I try to go to the third one, I can’t get into, for sure some problem with my internet connection,  but I guess it was a really nice offer to.

So if you want a webhosting service plan to your site you can go to the kaushal Sheth and check out the list maybe it growing up or if you have the knowledge of another webhosting company who offers best prices  for sure you can share the info in the kaushal Sheth weblog.

Happy birthday to me!

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

Today, on February 10 I’m celebrating my birthday, in fact I would like to do something special with my wife Donna, friends and my family, but today I’m really tired because last week at my job was very hard, 4 work days working almost 20 hours and just two or three hours to sleep.

Anyway, during last January month I have so many times to think in a lot of things about me, my life, my family and my career specially my projects and the near future, many of my friends knows than my projects are focused in blogs & web 2.0 and of course the way to monetize them and I hope continue working during this year on them, especially iDeoApp, a largest dreamed project where I hope to work with some very respectable professionals in this year edition.

Besides, I hope to try during this year work in some other personal areas, some old fights with myself and “mis demonios” as a good friend told, and work in the middle time to forgive me by a really sad thing in my life, I lost five good friends few years ago, not to all at the same time and by the way they didn´t die, they just don´t be my friends anymore, few nights ago I have a dream with some of them, maybe that’s the reason why I’m back to think in them again.

Another area to work in my life during this year is the professional at my job day. As many of my friends knows I work at TCS, and this year is very special for the company in our Ecuador’s Office, that’s the reason why in the next months for sure I have so many work to do at my job and of course with prolonged time in front of my computer.

And last, but not least, during this year I try to enjoy the time at home with my family an of course Nino, my pet, maybe I try to go more to the movies and makes one or two long waited travels, Bettina Mexican friend an good bloggers suggest me goes to Rio de Janerio, she was there in Rio’s Carnival last week, and as she says “I´m in love with Rio”, maybe it´s time to validate all that miles received in my credit cards.

Fine art storage

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

Last night I found an interesting service for art galleries,  Fine Art Storage.

In fact I never heard before about this kind of service but it looks very interesting, the idea is help to the artist, owners and of course art galleries to store their fine arts and help in the transport form place to place if it’s the case, and of course many others services in relation with the fine arts care.

The mainly reason for this service is just about many people around the world doesn’t know how they take care about their fine arts, some newly collectors just bought it or companies invest in fine arts thinking in the future but they don´t have any idea how take care about their investments, but as the people of Mind’s Eye say in their website:

Caring for your valuables is more than our passion.  It’s a science.

And that’s the reason why I found interesting this web site, people who takes seriously the labor to care fine arts in several ways.

So if you’re planning to buy some fine arts, or  are a fine arts collector, for sure you maybe need contact with professionals in this kind of services.

Great price on lens

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

Few days ago a good friend of mine let me knows about a web site where he found a great promo about lens “Zenni Optical $8 Rx Glasses” finally he visit the website and he found a place where you or someone else who need lenses can buy new ones at a great price, in fact my friend wants to bought a Pure Titanium Full Rim Frame black lens, and the final cost with a lot of extras was $126.35, a great price for that kind of lenses.

 

After of that we start a search on the net for some other web site where we can find great prices like this one but until today we have no results.

Some other sites link to the same web site using links like Best Thing Found: Zenni Optical and Great Discovery: Zenni Optical and if the quality of their products is really good, of course they are talking seriously.

If someone of buy this lenses and have any comments about the website, service or something else please let us know.

how to mix and drink absinthe.

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

Few days ago a good friend of mine invites me to take a shot of a new drink he bought trough the internet, Absinthe. In fact a lot of people call it as an liquor but the wikipedia describe it as a distilled, highly alcoholic anise-flavored spirit derived from herbs including the flowers and leaves of the medicinal plant Artemisia absinthium, also called Grand Wormwood, but it’ doesn’t a liquor or spirit because absinthe is not bottled with added sugar.

Anyway, the mainly reason of this post is abut hot to do an Absinthe drinks, in my personal case it was my first time, so I learned it from my friend and how to do that.

First he puts a shot of Absinthe, in a glass, then dip a teaspoon of sugar into the glass until it absorbs a little bit, then he puts on fire the sugar with a  lighter, he told me do this with careful because this is very flammable, when the sugar was caramelized, and the flame comes to down he stirs absinthe with the sugared spoon and finally adds water to the glass, in fact in the official web site the have an explanation of how to do it.

When you drink it, the first impression you’ll been is the same as the Cuban Mojito’s an strong herbal flavor.

I’m the number one!

Posted by Juan Fernando Pacheco

Carlos Jumbo, a good friend of mine made a list of the twitters and the number of followers who has everyone on their respective contact list.

And my name appears in the first position with 287 followers at 26 December in the night, so it makes me the Ecuadorian twitter with more followers. The second place is occupied by Calu with 225 and in the third place AlmaPirata, of course it’s necessary to say, this is not a popularity list or something like that, because so much of the current twitter follower are just occasional readers of you, or your blog if you have one. So it number in any way represent the authority or importance of you or your blog, it is just a number of people who with relative frequency read something about you.

So, if you wish read the complete list please visit Carlos Jumbo’s Blog and if you want to follow me in twitter visit me there.

I’m try to help to a good friend of mine does hers new blog template, and when I got the time to work on it, a new task comes to me.

So for all that people how ask to me if I change my MSN address, or if I blocked some of them, let me say No, I don’t do anything of it, I’m just trying to get enough time to work in a very interesting template for a good friend of mine, sooner you know about it, I hope so.

And if you prefer follow me in a new micro blogging way you can do that using Twitter, of course it doesn’t hurts. Come on follow me.
