04/09: Robo pinball
A nice online pinball game.

At the moment a TV production is being filmed of Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea novels, one of my fantasy favourits. See this Earthsea website for details.
During my trip to Cuba last month, I noticed a video clip being played very often on Cuban TV. I do not speak Spanish, but the video was clear enough to make it's anti-Bush and anti-Iraq war message clear.
I am not a fan of both George W. and the USA involvement in Iraq, but this video is much too one sided to be taken seriously. However, as counterweigth to the Republican National Convention pro-Bush propaganda, it might be interesting to watch.

29/08: Photo's holiday Cuba online
August 12th-26th I travelled in Cuba enjoying my holiday. The photo's of this trip are now online.
Unfortunately one of my two memory cards broke down during transfer of the photo's from my camera to my PC, so only photo's of the second part of the trip are online.
29/08: Upgraded to BLOG:CMS v3.4.4
Again an upgrade of the weblog software. As always I appreciate bug reports, errors and/or comments.
Next to my online music collection (see next item), also my book collection is now database driven.
Build using the same software, but now using Collectorz.com Book Collector.
Finally I have made a database driven solution for my online music collection instead of the old, hard to maintain and non-searchable static HTML pages.
The music collection is now fully searchable and more flexible.
I have build this PHP solution with the following software:
06/08: How a fool sees the world...
This website features a very strange world map, or as the author explains:
'This is a project visualizing the world map which many fools in the world imagine.
If you can see this map comfortably, you are definitely a fool.
One day, a Texan asked me a question when I lived in U.S..
The question was "How many hours does it take to go to Japan by car?". (true story)
He didn't know where Japan is, and even bofore that, he didn't know that Japan is an island.
And then, I thought. "What kind of world map is pictured in his mind?"
This was a beginning to think that it might be fun to gather those mixed up recognitions of countries and visualize it as a world map imagined by the fools in the world.'
06/08: Cows With Guns
A very nice flash animation about a very revolutionary cow ;-) (From Shagrat.net)
I have (again) upgraded the weblog engine running this site. I am now running BLOG:CMS v3.2 Donald Trump Edition, one of the most complete, feature-packed, personal publishing systems on the market, developed by Radek Hulan.
As always, I like to hear when you have comments or encounter errors.

A movie is made of another one of my favourite novels: Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (or H2G2 for short). Visit the official homepage and the official movie blogfor more information.
Another great info source is the first H2G2 unofficial movie site, they even have the first teaser trailer online.

17/07: Let them sing it for you
A great flash project of a Swedish radio station were you can input your own lyrics and get it sung to you by world's greatest pop stars.
A very good parody on both US presidential candidates, featuring George W. Bush and John F. Kerry singing This Land and lots of other famous cameo appearances.
