Personaggi on the road
Prendendo spesso il taxi per gli spostamenti di lavoro, capita altrettanto spesso di imbattersi in tassisti che sono dei personaggi.
A volte odiabili, ma altre volte, come l’altra sera, dei veri fenomeni di simpatia e interessanti dal lato umano.
Ho trovato un tassista della vecchia guardia, già in pensione, ma comunque ancora sulla strada per passione e per necessità. Mi ha riportato dall’aeroporto di Linate a casa, rendendo piacevole il percorso grazie alla sua simpatia e alle sue doti di… chitarrista!
Infatti, il personaggio in questione viaggia abitualmente con chitarra classica al seguito poggiata sul sedile del passeggero e, appena può, la imbraccia per fare due accordi e due arpeggi.
Dapprima mi ha raccontato un po’ della sua vita e della sua passione per la musica venuta tardi, dopo la pensione. Poi mi ha raccontato che, praticamente, suona ad orecchio non conoscendo la musica e appena può, nelle pause di lavoro, fa esercizio o va a suonare in un ristorante di amici.
Così, a un certo punto, ha voluto che sentissi qualcosa, per cui a ogni semaforo imbracciava la sua chitarra e partiva con un pezzo di bossa nova!
Ho voluto immortalare questo momento in due piccoli video, tra un semaforo e l’altro, ripresi con il telefonino e di qualità scarsa, visto anche che era notte…
Prova di windows live writer
Avevo letto tempo fa della possibilità di usare degli editor esterni rispetto a quello online offerto dalla piattaforma blog di WordPress.
Così ho ripreso dal mio social bookmark service del.icio.us un link che avevo memorizzato qualche giorno addietro di una pagina sul sito di news sul web 2.0, Mashable, dove venivano menzionati 10 blog editor.
La scelta è caduta su Windows Live Writer, perchè ben recensito e con funzionalità interessanti, come l’interfaccia grafica e la possibilità di inserire foto e immagini nel post in modo amichevole.
Proviamo subito questa possibilità inserendo proprio l’immagine dell’editor.
La cosa simpatica (e utile) è che l’editor prende le impostazioni del sito web riportandole sulla pagina in cui si scrive, dando lo stesso look di come apparirà il testo, le immagini e qualsiasi altra cosa si inserisca dopo la pubblicazione.
Al momento mi pare proprio ben fatto e la prima impressione è assolutamente positiva.
Penso che diventerà lo strumento principale per la pubblicazione dei miei prossimi articoli, abbandonando l’interfaccia scarna dell’editor inline di WordPress.
