In terms of technology and the internet, the last 24 hours have been very interesting. After the earthquake in Chile, land line and cell phone networks went black in many areas, while the internet continued working. Because of this, people were able to communicate with the outside world, send pictures, messages and even connect video calls through Skype and other voice over IP services. The same thing happened to some degree after the Haiti earthquake. Continue reading "All Clear." →
Canon.

We were all very impressed by this guy who played Pachelbel’s “Canon” to perfection on his electric guitar. Now, prepare to be equally impressed by Tracy Bundy, who does not sell shoes, but performs the same piece of music on an acoustic guitar almost exclusively by tapping.
I, for one, am impressed. Not only does he play the classic pieces, he also know his way around the more modern gems. What about Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” and “Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin, also performed on an acoustic guitar?

Sicko.

No, I haven’t got the swine flu. Not even a slight cough. Anniken was out sick for a couple of days last week and I was so sure I’d get ill too, I prepared good for it: I hocked up my old Xbox 360 and bought GTA Episodes From Liberty City. After I got my PS3, I tried to sell my Xbox 360 console, but the big consumer electronics store chains sold Xbox 360 systems so cheap, they completely killed off the second hand console market. There is an obvious upside to this, though; I can play games that are exclusive Xbox 360 releases.
But since I’m not sick yet, the game is still in its plastic wrapping. Nothing wrong with playing the game while I’m not ill, of course, but since being home sick can be quite boring, I need something to do if it happens. I do have some excellent PC games I can play, but they are all strategy games that require some level of brain activity and that’s usually not my strong side when the fever kicks in. But where did all those great strategy games come from? Continue reading "Sicko." →

Just a quick entry to let you know that I have 20 Google Wave invites to give away. Leave a comment if you’re interested.
Please note this (from Google):
Invitations will not be sent immediately. We have a lot of stamps to lick.
Meaning that it might take a while from I send you the invite until you actually receive it.
