Recently I got my new iPhone 3G, so I have been playing with the new apps that are available with the 2.0 software.

One of the is the ability to blog to wordpress from the iPhone .. This is a test using that app

I am also finding I can now type really fast with the iPhone keyboard, guess it’s just a matter of one getting used to it

Also testing the ability to add a photo

Well .. Here goes nothing.. I will try publishing it now, if you can read it.. It worked

I have been working or Parallels since they bought PSoft from Comodo (about 9-10 months ago).

I cant fault the company, they have came a long way and still they have much more to go, but unfortunately it was just not working for both the company and myself, so as of last Thursday (3rd) I no longer work there (well, I am on 30 days notice).

There are several factors of why, one of them being that I was one of the few (if not the only) remote employee, in many ways I felt detached, mostly because the company is not structured to deal with remote single employees … everybody works on a Parallels office, not at home, second, coming from 8+ years of owner, co-owner & shareholder of the companies I worked for, to be relegated to a lower echelon was just not for me, I am only happy at the top, or close to the top .. if I am not part of the decision making process, I am not really happy.

Also my way of working did not help, being used to not report to anybody, I keep all my activities within the confinement of my laptop, I was not used to have to use a CRM such as Salesforce, that was a pain, and i did not adapt well to that structure, but then again, if I where working at the sales office in US or UK, then the need for such a tool is not as relevant.

So, now I am out, if this experience taught me something is that I do prefer to work on a smaller company, where the decision making is more personal and the trill of growth is very much alive ..

In the next few days and weeks I will be sending my resumé to a few prospects, time to move on.

Yesterday the Berg axles came back, I spent some time in the dining room table putting it together .. looks stunning

I am replacing the chassis with a ZERO Berg chassis and the shocks with probably the Losi shocks (the default ones are too big for the Zero chassis) .. but as default .. it looks great, part of me wonders if I need to change it at all
