Comics app discontinued

Jan 26, 2012

I was silent for a long time and I feel it is the right moment to make this announce. I've decided to discontinue Comics.

It is something I really loved and this decision touches me deeply, but it is time for major changes. Perhaps, under other circumstances, I would consider this differently, but because of my commitments with my current job and personal goals to achieve, it became harder for me to constantly improve Comics. Perhaps one day I'll come back to this project, but now I have to look forward.

 

I cannot thank enough all Comics' users for their support. Thank you.

Based on my research and my personal experience, I found some interesting points I want to share with you.

A good employee

Aug 07, 2011

After 9 years spent as employee in the IT field working for huge, big, small Companies, I think I can say my personal opinion on what I've learned so far: the perfect Company doesn't exist and you should find your way by your own.

My first article

May 25, 2011

Hi, I'm Roberto and this is my first article.

English is not my natural language, but I think my articles will be quite understandable to all.

I want to start my blog telling you two things.

Why English?

There are many reasons to use English as your main language for blogs, business and other general communications.

Italian (lingua italiana) is my first language. Based on Wikipedia, Italian is spoken as mother tongue by [..] 65 million people. Instead, English language only in the United States is spoken by 251 million people. Wikipedia reports English as first language for 309-400 million people in the world..
