Being proud
Being the proud father to a rabbit that I am, I’d like to show off both my new camera/phone and the bunny himself. No more jibberish: pictures!

A new gadget
My phone-tic has had a severe impact on my wallet this week: I’ve decided to purchase the Sony Ericsson K850i in combination with my old mobile subscription. I really like it, as it is better equipped than my old & trusty N73 and better looking. it is a shame it is not a smartphone though, nor has it capabilities to

Due to the early demise of the previous bunny, we’ve been on the lookout for a new friend for the female bunny we already own. It has been quite a short lookout though: last Saturday a new member of the family has arrived. Named "Kees", brother of "Ko", by the animal-shelter we decided this would not be his name, and

When I was snooping through my visitor-stats, and the browser-use of those visitors, one thing is apparent: most visitors are using Firefox. 46.6% to be precise, which is quite a lot compared to the use of Firefox in the Netherlands; which is about 15% according to tweakers.net. Also, over 25% of the visitors is (still) using IE6, and this is

Without complaining too much about our perverted present society, I would like us to focus on the recent developments regarding us blindly following hypes. I intend to keep it short, on purpose since the average duration of attention on any subject is decreasing. The zapper-generation is here, and here to stay! All, so called, news has to be compact, easy

This morging was only slightly different compared to others: traffic was bad. This time it was 525KM bad at it’s peak, a few minutes past 9 in the morning. We Dutchies have always been very good at complaining about any- and everything. Weather, immigrants, politicians, the national football-coach, the neighbors and the traffic. True, all named above do have flaws,

What a sad day it was. Yesterday, early in the morning we received a phone call from the vet’s office to inform us, our recently acquainted bunny has passed away. He was taken in the evening before after he didn’t eat for a full 24h, a clear sign things don’t go well. When administered, he suffered from hypothermia and had

As you could have been reading in a previous post: I’ve been busy creating a search-page to find music in my collection. It is still steadily growing, and searching it is very often one of few methods to find the track you wanted. The auto-AND function is completed and fully functional now. The next thing on the menu is the

Being in an office for an entire day can be quite boring. And it is, I can tell you. Unless there’s people to talk to, it can be quite tedious to be on your own without any interaction. My best friend, not depicted, is the coffee-machine! Below some pics of how it can be; but luckily it only is for

As can be read on my about-page, I do have a girlfriend despite the fact I’m pretty much a computer geek. I’m not impressed by hardware, nor by software. I’m not an active gamer, nor do I own the most recent computer-stuff, it all just works well and since quite some time. Uptime is superior to extreme performance to me.
