Some news and still working
Well, I got an interview I was really looking for and I think things went OK. They gave me a worksheet to finish. At first it looked easy but when I was actually working with it, it take a little more time than expected. But finally finished and send it.
Looking forward the next steps now, I have to start planning in case everything goes right, also it was a long day at work and looks like it is still going to be. And do not forget that I have to review the business idea sent.

Paper, business idea and something else
Well, it has been a busy week. I send my proposal to present a paper in a conference about agile methodologies and open source initiatives. Yesterday I finished the last draft to participate in a business idea contest and I am waiting for some feedback on them and today early morning got the first answer from a Google recruiter.
Btw my yahoo account is uploaded to 100 MB and that just make me eager to find a Gmail account, I have not bought anything yet here in Germany from ebay and I am waiting for my account to be verified and if I can not get a direct invitation I will bid for one.

My first step, applying to Google
The first thing I realized in this last month is that I am ready for the next step, and want to give a try to be a Googler, I just found they are looking some international people to be AdSense Coordinators. So I prepare my site and get my resume online in the weekend. Nothing fancy, just to establish a first presence, when I got everything ready I send it and got an automated reply that said I had some problems with the subject.
That was bad and since the mail said give a try, I check if something was missing, then may be some spaces in between, but nothing... the same answer. I said may be try another position and again the same response.
Well the goal for today was to apply to a Google job so the only thing I have left is sent an email to the greatpeople account, I did it and have not got an answer yet, but is good that at list it was not rejected.
As I said in my cover letter, I will update this site with some of my stories I got about Google and why it is my first step forward.
