Say Cheeze !
A running gag ever since me and Nyana have been together .. is the fact that we don’t have any decent pictures of the two of us as a couple. It got that bad that we even have offered up a bottle of champane to whoever got a cool picture of us taken.…

How Geeks do Ikea.
Whow .. That was another busy weekend as we prep and prod to get the whole move on the way. Can’t believe its all going so fast. Even today I am beginning to realize that this will probably be the last "Monday-evening" we’ll have in our house here. By this time next week we will…

Pondering on the new Geek-core
With the move coming closer and closer, more an more cardboard boxes are stacking themselves up around me. The spacious office upstairs has been taken apart, and i have retreated to the living room, mounting my macbook pro on a dodgy cheap-ass dinner table. But I am however into full "planning" mode. The practicalities of…
Day in the life of a road warrior.
a roadwarriors day at the office. Today was another perfect example of mobile computer done by the average slider. Having to go on assignment to deal with two clients i was out the door at the crack of dawn. The crow had not managed to belch its tune and I was already on the train…
Life … As it is sometimes.
An all to familiar piece of reality Tv .. Thank you KD. Related PostsNo Related Posts
Dental Drudge.
Well, I wanted a job on the road, looks like I got one. Once again coming to you from an authentic "truck stop" ( We only have on in the area) The weekend has been pretty busy, with a major bummer on Saturday when I found out that I could not pick up my Macbook…
Getting my Macbook Pro.
There are days in your life that you can’t wait for your alarm clock to go off and herald in another day. Like for example your first day when you got to go to the "big school" ( Back when you where a naive kid ) or many of those christmas mornings. Today is one…
Countdown to the big Move.
Finally, I’m back with another blogpost. Don"t know how many times i’ve started over, my brain somehow turning to liquid gellato halfway along the post. Reason for that is a total overload of stuff to do at work. Having to wear "different hats" all the time, (Sales, Sys admin, Developer, Helpdesk) is a very challenging…
The Return of the MM 50 and the coming of the Zeppelin.
I’ve had this little piece of equipment for three years now, no almost four. Back when I started as an IT consultant I had to drive to Beerse (near Antwerp) every day. In the beginning I took Cd’s along but, that started to bore me pretty quickly. I had owned an Ipod for a few…
Happy Birthday Gran-EEE
This weekend was the annual birthday party of Nyana’s grandmother. (Also known as the 81 year old "Ubuntu Granny") This Gutsy Granny is one of the Geekiest senior citizens I know and has been running Ubuntu Linux on her old laptop for two years now (See the article HERE) When we went…
Good-Bye-Book
This weekend has marked a little bit of a "landmark-event" in our own personal computer history. Saturday morning we said goodbye to our "very first mac". I still remember when, almost four years ago I was thinking about buying my first mac. I had been listening to my very first podcasts (Back then , the…
Abigger nerd ?
This must be the fastest post i’ve written so far. And with that I mean that I have never blogged at this velocity. As I’m writing this I’m flying through the sleeping landscape of Belgium , Its Six am , i’m on the train to Antwerp and I have a new best friend ! With…
Become a hacker in 60 seconds.
Perhaps some of you have seen that atrocity of a movie with Angela Jolie called Hackers, perhaps you’re a fan of the movie Swordfish and got to pry your eyes away from the boobs of Halle Berry and watched the big computer screens instead. Or perhaps you are still a 40 year old virgin that…
Lifestreaming with Yahoo Pipes.
For the last few days I have been thinking about the concept of Lifestreaming. A way of aggregating all the things I do online into one big stream. A collection of my articles , podcasts, tweets (quite a few of them lately), video’s, bookmarks, comments.. Would be very cool to have them all poured into…
Respawning a mac Mini into a Ubuntu Server.
Man ! What a busy week, or must I say : what a busy week-end. Parties, shopping, social events, work .. it all piled up nicely and maxed out our weekend to the extreme. Barely enough time to sit down, let alone "blog" or do something else productive. But what the hey .. here I…
Disk encryption.. Bah Humbugg.
Thanx 2 Sharky for sending this one in. Now we can all sleep a lot easier. Related PostsNo Related Posts
Doing the Samba.
Its all over the TV these days. Celebrities trying to impress the crowds (and revitalise their dwindling careers) by doing some ballroom dancing. To me this kind of entertainment is enough to wish for some king of sensory failure of my higher brain functions, but luckily i can just zap away when it gets too…
Subscribe to the Newsletter.
Work continues on the Knightwise.com website as we add another cool feature : The KW.com newsletter. It took me some tinkering with the "letterman" module in Joomla but its up and running. If you like to have KW.com content pushed towards you .. Why not subscribe to the newsletter. Every time we release a podcast…
Radio is Dead to me.
Sunday afternoon, Nice and quiet, Upstairs in the central command center… (well, Office .. workplace) Powerbook munching away at some backups, turning them into ZIP files for later storage. And in the background : Music. True, I’m good at multitasking but suck at listening to podcasts and computing at the same time. Guess I’m not…
My new Ipod Touch.
When I take a peek at the receipt of my Ipod Video, I see its almost three years old. When I take a peek at the receipt of my First 3G Ipod i see its over 4 years old. That is pretty long for a portable device considering that none of their predecessors ( A…
Extreme Makeover.
Well, unless you are using a screen reader and suffer from the same proverbial blindness as a bat (Holy Smokes Batman) you might have noticed that the look and feel of the website has changed just a tad. Reason for this is a: The old logo and look and feel was getting.. erm … old,…
Beautifull Dawn !
This morning, before heading off to work, I pulled over to snap this pretty picture. Related PostsNo Related Posts
SOLD !!!!!
After a week of silence, I have returned. I have returned with an excuse why the podcast has been slow in coming and why posts have been so far in between. Over the last month we (Nyana and I) have pulled of yet another trick that most people take months to complete. I am proud…
I have become a suit.
I have become a suit.I used to watch them from time to time. Whenever Nyana and I had a day off we would drive to the seaside and stop over at some restaurant along the freeway. There you would see them, tapping away at their laptops while having dinner. looking mighty busy and…
Internet Fame and .. Glory ?
Sitting down in the afternoon , recovering from a fairly nice Sunday, I rattle away at my Macbook while waiting for Vista to install on one of my workstations. I’ve decided to give Microsoft latest yet another go, but choose a slightly more powerful workstation then last time. Reason ? Not curiosity or something like…
