Our photo's of the trip to London and Oxford 17-20 May 2007 are now online.

The famous princess Leia as slave in golden bikini scene from Return of the Jedi apparently is the secret fantasy of many StarWars fanboys, including even Ross Geller from Friends.

So what can top that? Easy, a dozen slave Leias!

Finally an initiative in the music industry that does not believe the future of the industry is DRM. SellaBand is a great initiative where independent musicians are supported by fans to professionally record a CD.

I support two artists so far, give them a look (and support if you like this initiative and their music).

Back when I made the first entry to this weblog I started this weblog with Nucleus as blogging software. I then gradually moved via Nucleus Extreme Edition to Blog:CMS.

However, due to several annoying bugs, but most importantly the fact that support for Blog:CMS is basically a one-person (albeit most of the times a very helpful person) venture, I decided to move back to Nucleus again.

Please report any glitches you might encounter.

For an overview of some of the reasons I choose to migrate:

• Wikipedia page on Blog:CMS
• Another user's story on Blog:CMS

I did not realize I was getting that old, but this news arcticle made me aware that the Sinclair ZX Spectrum is celebrating its 25th birthday this month!

Oh the nostalgia! This is the machine I started to learn computers on, programmed my first lines in BASIC on, spend countless hours waiting for the games to load from tape... great memories!

I still own a working (albeit not my original) ZX Spectrum, and of course emulators on my phone, PSP and PC.

So thanks Clive for starting the 8 bit revolution at prices everyone could afford!

With this site you can profile yourself in a typical Web 2.0 fashion: just select your choices of your favourite images and you get your profile. It even includes a matching service and a gift suggestion service.

Don't know if these kind of sites actually help to assess your personality, but at least you can find my profile here.
