No tan solo como esperaba

Regresando de mis pequeñas pero reconfortantes vacaciones pensé que encontraría menos personas en el Centro del Software. Estaba equivocado.

Ayer parecía ser un día normal, oficinas con las mismas caras que veía cada día que caminaba por los pasillos. Tal vez las personas vinieron a trabajar por la misma razón que podría imaginar porque las personas venian a trabajar: atascados de trabajo.

Yo personalmente uso estos días de 'trabajo/vacaciones' para hacer algunas de las mismas cosas que no puedo hacer en días normales de trabajo. Algunas personas vienen por la misma razón (techy geeks!) o tal vez porque simplemente no tienen otra opción (trabajadores negreados).

Lo mejor de todo es que no hay tráfico, el clima es frio y es algo así como menos doloroso venir a la oficina y escribir algo de código, terminar algunas cosas y aprender algo nuevo sin la presión normal.

Y ahora, para terminar este post, el cliché de temporada: ¡Feliz año nuevo!

Último día del 2006

Bueno, este es mi último día del 2006 en el Centro del Software.

Estoy muy feliz. México -en los próximos años- será un gran país para el desarrollo de software. Ahora, nosotros necesitamos crear un gran tornado con las ideas de toda la gente que viene a trabajar aquí.

;)



Por ahora, felices fiestas y feliz año nuevo.

First and brief post

Well, my very first and brief post.

The only thing I want to highlight is that real synergy is starting to exists around here at the CS.

Two weeks ago all companies started to talk about how can we optimize resources, good things emerged from that meeting. We will be expecting results next year's first quarter.

Last week we were talking about a joint project with other company; FINALLY! this is one achievment of being together.

Yesterday the CFO from our neighbor company was explaing us how they manage financial scenarios and risks; again, FINALLY, we are sharing knowledge.

In general, people around here are starting to talk, exchange ideas and work together. Companies are obviously created by people... so we will be expecting plenty of joint achievments next year! Mexico will be leader in the technology development market really soon. I promise.

The software center like Art Gallery



About the sculptures in the last post.

Well, the software center have many faces, almost like the people that lives in here. Mexico, like a multicultural country have a rich culture and traditions. We have a lot of great artists in poetry, theatre, music, painting, sculpture, etc..

In the original plans of the software center the admon thought in convert the corridors in autentic galleries of art. The first work (4 beautiful and strange sculptures) were from a artist from Jalisco, (insert the name in here).

The last week, a business man, Jorge Vergara (owner of a soccer team in Mexico and Costa Rica), sponsored a local in the history center for a art auction. That's the end of the sculptures. But don't worry!

Soon we can have a lot of other great work!

The building



Well... Let's start with the building. The "Centro del Software" was before a supermarket called Comercial Mexicana in the center of the "Plaza del Ángel". Comercial Mexicana, it's a big company with a lot of stores in Mexico.





Plaza del Angel it's near of Plaza del Sol, the most ancient mall in latinamerica. This plaza it's a travel to the past. Have a lot of small stores, and a abandonaded cinema (with a so cute taquilla). In the last floor, there is a dance school.





Well... that's all folks

One month ago...

Almost one month ago i stopped writing in this blog. The true reasons were a lot of work, and a huge pressure for deliver projects in time.

Nothing has been happening in the software center. Really! NOTHING... The same companies, the same workers, the same faces... When you walk by, you can see empty offices, with one chair, one table, even one flower. Nothing more. What's up? Nothing important really, because almost every company have other offices somewhere in the city.

I don't have camera, and believe or not, it's another reason for not posting. Letter by themselves are boring, rigth? I mean, maybe a book would be cool but not if you're talking about a place. I promise buy a camera within the next few days.

Well, see ya!

P.S. Project Manager: i need more time for this blog!
