A new gallery with photo's from our trip to New York from 28 April to 4 May 2008 is now online.

A bunch of retro games... but then somewhat different, they all have been sabotaged.

One of my favourite fantasy book cycles is Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth cycle. So it is exciting news that the first book, 'Wizard's First Rule', will be adapted to a TV miniseries, of 22 episodes no less. So can't wait to fall this year.

See the announcement on the official webpage of Terry Goodkind.

Sweeet! It was already possible of course to find all the South Park episodes online, but now you can watch all episodes on an official site of the makers.

(makes me look back to the days of Sweet.com and Parkwars.com, both sites long gone, but luckily we have the Internet Archive Wayback Machine).

An amazing new artists at Sellaband: Ellie Williams.

Ellie is storming the Sellaband charts right now, just listen and you know why.

UPDATE: In an amazing race Ellie Williams made 50k in 50 days and became the 18th Sellaband recording artist! So now the wait is for the doubtless great album.

Yay! I am finally in the record business, very exciting to see the first CD I help financing through Sellaband come through.

The album itself will go on sale at 25 February, but you can already pre-order this CD at Amazon.co.uk. You can also already buy the album as digital download for the bargain price of US$ 3.50. The first three tracks are even free for download.

So go check this great CD, download your free tracks and buy the CD!

Very nice flash game.

As a tip for those who do not know about these forums yet, these are the Dutch forums I frequently visit:

Chelloo.com for clients of UPC or news about the cable industry in the Netherlands:

TV@Home/Casema forum for clients of the cable providers united in Zesko

Handy instructional video about how to eat at a sushi bar in Japan.

At Sellaband there is now a great competition going on that gets everybody in the Christmas spirit: the Christmas song competition. Check out the Sellaband Christmas Playlist for excellent Christmas music.

An overview of all the entries can also be found here.

Nice anthology of the most infuential online videos of all time. Of course with every top 10 you have lots of reasons to disagree (for example, the Numa Numa song is not in, neither the two most frequently visited videos on my weblog: Chinese/Japanese T-shirt folding and the Egg song), but the list brought lots of good memories anyway.

And yeez, was Jennicam really already 11 years ago? Remember it very well, I am getting old.

What a great way to package the CD of the C64 Orchestra I blogged about earlier: the CD package is formed after the C64 keyboard.

My copy should already be on its way.

Our photo gallery of our last holiday to Kuala Lumpur, Java and Bali, from 10-26 October 2007 is now online.

I blogged earlier about Sellaband and Julia Marcell, but last Friday Julia Marcell reached the 50k at Sellaband in a record three months and three days since signing up, enabling her to record a CD! Especially the last race to the 50k was quite spectacular: over 10k in one day.

So the good news is that we will soon get a complete Julia Marcell album, the bad news is that you can not buy parts in her success anymore (of course you can but the CD when it is finished).

Congratulations Julia and can't wait to receive the limited edition CDs!
