Hello my cyber-savvy readers. It was a dire time but we have recovered. And I say that not in the sence that I have recovered some long lost files (although I have done a fair share of that over the last few days too) We have recovered from a little attack of off-line life. Times…
Castle in the Mist : Photoshoot at Alden Biesen.
It is not very often I get the possibility to have a few hours to kill, but last Sunday I found a small gaping hole in my agenda that just screamed to be exploited. With our living room redone, I was in dire need of some original artwork for the walls. And when I say original, I do mean : Original.…
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 ?
An interesting conversation at work inspired me to do todays article. Topic at hand was a brochure of one of the local supermarkets featuring a very nice desktop system from HP.

Google Reader : Answer to the mobile 2.0 life ?
The web 2.0 does offer some interesting challenges to most of us these days. I for one am constantly feeling that I’m “missing out” on stuff that other people “seem to get”. There is always some news item that is hot on the feeds, or always something going down in one of the many web…

Wobbly Windows for everyone ! Beryl and Compiz in Ubuntu.
One of the things I absolutely LOVE about the new Feisty Distro of Ubuntu Linux are the Compiz and Beryl additions to the Gnome and KDE desktop. For those of you who think I'm "Geordi-la-Forging" ( Pulling techterms out of my butt) let me simplify it for you : What Rox about Ubuntu are the…

EXIF catches Harry Potter snoop.. But what about YOU ?
A cool little story on Digg today. Somewhere somehow an adult managed to take a huge risk to photograph a children's book before it was released… And borked up big time.

Another Mac in the Family
Everybody with the words "Apple Fanboy" on the tips of their tongues can start reaching for a cold beer to swallow them down. I'm by far an Apple Fanboy. Very true : I just placed the order for my Imac (see the article below) and am waiting (although not very patiently) for the thing to…

Vi, Gedit and Nano Manuals. Learn how to code from the command line.
If there is one thing that held me back from enjoying Linux, then it must be VI ! “Vi”is an anchient terminal program that lets you edit textfiles. Not like a word processor or anything, no : Configuration files. Now it might look very simple (or prime evil) if you look at it, but it…
