Early Adoptoritis.
Readers, friends, bedfellows lend me your ears for I am at a point where I would lovingly set off into the mother of all rants. Well, not the mother , but perhaps the aunt, or the niece or something. In any case : I’m annoyed enough to turn a slight shade of purple. My peeve…
Gmail + Imap : Postal Perfection ?

The art of Artwork.
Some of you might not even notice the little bird in the far left corner of our banner. Not very surprising. It has been there for a long long time. The original "heron’ sign is one that I chose as my personal "logo" over twelve years ago. Standing proud with arched wings it has been…

Power to the Browser !

When is media 2.0 going to be here ?
I sit in the main mess-hall of the GroupT college listening to some Norah Jones on my Ipod. Attention zeroed in on the screen of my macbook I hardly notice the not that bad looking girl that sits alone on the table next to me. Across the room a group of people is chattering away…

Pimp your Gnome !
Ok , I could not slip this post up. Being the cross platform slider that I am, I love working with Linux but hate the sometimes rudimentary boxiness of the graphical user interface. Sure .. Beryl and all that stuff is nice. But there must be nicer ways of totaly pimping out your Gnome desktop…
What do you REALLY need ?
