Google, or an excuse to write another post.


I was never a big fan of the internet (except for skype and email, i am much of a retard compared to people who spend hours), but since I moved to warsaw my eyes are starting to hurt from spending longer hour surfing the net. What in the world will be looking for? I started recently by discovering google maps, with its help i have been able to understand more or less the directions in the city ( I am still getting lost, but only at night it seems). I went for a walk last night,after a not so great chinese diner, so the whole time i am walking and thinking i am heading back to our street, only to find myself at a Metro station south of here. Boy I went for a walk and took the metro back home. Anyhow to say the least about the useful stuff you find on the net, I have been trying to dig all sort of articles about Warsaw. Only after 4 days now I am giving up on one simple search that is photographic by nature and technical in aspects. Google could not find me one single darkroom for rent in Warsaw ( Darkroom is a place where you can manually develop your own photographs), help please if anyone know of such a place. The good news is anytime there are the words (dark) ROOM... and RENT...google is sure to find you a million rooms to rent(as to sleep), so i am becoming more or less familiar with the prices of rent in the city, but still i am unable to rent a darkroom. However, I do feel grateful to whoever wrote this google sign on this wall, because thanks to you and the help of a Dominika's digital camera, in a way we have been able to reverse my curse. I FOUND GOOGLE AND DID NOT NEED A DARKROOM TO POST IT ON THIS BLOG.
NB: It is real:)

  1. Try googlin' Polish words: "ciemnia" and "do wynajęcia" and "warszawa"
    ciemnia - darkroom
    do wynajęcia - to rent

    I've already found a few. They cost 25 zl/hour :)
