Little bit of an update today about the Irobot Apad we talked about in previous episodes. The ‘review’ article I wrote is now featured in the latest edition of the “full Circle Magazine”. A free Electronic Ezine about Ubuntu. If you haven’t had a chance to read through a copy of this excellent magazine, be…

I’ve purposely put off writing up any snippet of text on the whole ipad deblacle untill i got my hands on one. I did not want to be yet another blogger that pulled a gasious anomaly out of their rectum just to scratch the itch that they needed to do “what everybody else was doing”…

Most of you who follow me on Twitter (and Facebook) know that i’m an IT consultant. In my dayjob, that means i have to work for a lot of “different clients” on the same day. This is sometimes a little bit of a Mindf*ck since you need to keep those professional “identies” seperated when you…
Last weekend I had the exceptional pleasure of being the “Spare Belgian” correspondant on Allison Sheridans (on the right) Nosillacast podcast. This awesome podcast “with an ever so slight Macintosh bias” celebrates its 5 year anniversary and is a fantastic source of tech-content. Make sure you tune in as we talk about our holiday in Carcassonne and…

Modern times bring modern ideas. Modern ideas and concepts require you to “rethink” some things and re-evaluate your experiences with the world. It is a simple fact that change.. is the only constant. Although you can mostly find me on the Vanguard of that very change, I still am surprised by how these new ideas…
I don’t often do quick “Download this and you’ll be happy” articles a lot. However today is an exception. A co-worker pointed me to the DVD-VIDEOSOFT suite for the PC. This fantastic piece of freeware is to media-loving geeks, what a Swiss army knife is to Mcgyver. Just a little excerpt of the 23 (!)…
For those who caught Knightcast Episode 34 : Talking Ebook Readers, it might not come as a surprise that I like my Sony PR-505 reader. My “passionate” remarks about the upcoming Ipad have however spiked the ears of Alisson Sheridan, hostess of the Nosillacast Podcast over at www.podfeet.com. Challenged by the princes of podcasting to…
When you come down to it, all geeks are voyeurs. They just LOVE to look at how other geeks have setup their little Geek-Palace and get some tips and ideas from there. Recently I posted the pictures of "The Laundry Room" on Flickr. Last week however, i had to re-arrange some of my setup due…
Ok , you can be good with your hands .. and you can build your own freakin WORKING astromech droid. As this video below illustrates, this gentleman is one belonging to the latter category. Some day you get up and you say : Today I want to build an R2-D2 unit and impress all of…
Never mind the fact that i’m online most of the day, and live at least 80 percent of my waking hours connected to some kind of broadband connection, sometimes you just have to go “off the net”. Since I spend a lot of time in the car (and on the road) I consume a fair…
The say you can find just about everything on the internet, and if "they" say that , its probably true. From the formula for a perfect Café Latte to the formula for an atom bomb, from pictures of kittens to full out FluffyPron ( hello @woollymittens 😉 ) There is indeed no source of information…
Find PART ONE of this series HERE. IN our second part of the series about “Linux running on everything” we are going to take it one step further. Lets take look at a few Linux distributions that work ‘from the command line’. Now “From the command line” can mean quite a lot of things. It…
One of the myths that are out there , is that Linux runs on “everything”. Technically, this is true, Linux does “RUN” on even the smallest and most underpowered devices (Appliances like routers, your Tivo and some cellphones) and sure enough, geeks manage to run Linux on lighter computers like a 486, just to prove…
I could say life has been getting in the way, I could say I have been busy with work, I could say I’ve been abducted by aliens. But only two out of those three statements would be correct. The truth is I’ve been getting a masters degree in procrastination and have been a bad bad…
A calm Sunday afternoon. The ideal moment to sit down behind my little Acer Aspire Net-book and punch out some of the thoughts and idea’s that have been on my mind for the last week. A busy week I must say. A week filled with work and meetings and a lot of rushing about. Clocking…

If the internet is about ONE single thing, then it must be about "interaction". About finding out new things on the net thanx to your peeps. About inspiring people, showing people the way and so forth. The whole interweb is one big interactive community that constantly influences eachother. So why stop at the…
This weekend I had the honor AND the pleasure of going out to buy me some new gear. After renovating our laundry room over the holidays, I had planned on getting me a second 28 inch monitor, but Einstein got in the way. According to some teeny weeny "law of phisics" 2 atoms cannot occupy…
I went shopping for a new notebook yesterday and got me an Acer Timeport as my main ‘non mac’ system to run Ubuntu , Windows 7 and stuff like that. I’ll post a complete review once i’m done testing. But the unboxing porn IS ready to go. Instead of doing it mysellf, I outsourced the…
Those of you who have been following me on Twitter over the holidays, might have noticed that there were a lot of tweets about "Renovating" flying back and forth. Yep .. its true. I’ve been hitting the DIY over the holidays, renovating our spare/laundry room into an office. When we moved in here we had…
