All your pictures are belong to Google »

Damn it. In the shadow of the Google Chrome browser’s release, Google also released the beta version of the Picasa 3 photo organizer. And what have we here? An EULA with a paragraph 11 which is remarkably like the previously discarded one from Google Chrome.
    11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already [...]

All your input are belongs to you »

The Internet has roared. The Google has coughed. The Google Chrome EULA paragraph eleven that i wrote about yesterday has been radically altered. I thank nikc for notifying me about the change.
The Chrome EULA article 11 now states:
11. Content license from you
11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which [...]

All your input are belong to Google »

I installed the Google Chrome browser earlier today and i was going to write a rambling fan-boy post about how much i love it (which is to say that i like the speed and the cleanliness, just as i like a newly installed operating system before it’s bogged down with extensions, programs, customizations and whatnots) [...]

Kvällens kalja: Old Ember »

När katten är borta… eller mer specifikt, då hustrun jourar, då tar jag mej en söndagsbärs (inte för att celebrera utan för att kompensera, naturligtvis). Efter ett antal jourer har det blivit några flaskor och nu har jag faktiskt ingen större aning om vilken av de fyra flarrorna jag knäckte som jag gärna tog [...]

Shucked! »

A bit over a year ago, i posted a story where i had been approached by one or more members of the Shuck family in the belief that i was Lauren Shuck.
To recap, i was sent an invitation to join the Shuck Family’s group on Yahoo! groups and i was sent a gift [...]

Google Calendar lack-of-sync »

Google released a calendar synchronization tool a while back and today i thought i’d give it a spin. Well, it turns out things aren’t that easy (with beta software). When installing the sync tool, the installer kindly informed me that i should close Outlook before proceeding. I closed Outlook and told the [...]

Event recommendation from Last.FM »

I just discovered that “a little ska band”, Reel Big Fish is playing in Tavastia next Monday. This information was provided to me by Last.FM, based on music i’ve played and “scrobbled” (RBF are there at artist #92). The Recommended events engine can also recommend me events based on my musical taste, i.e. bands that [...]

Sitemap thingy installed »

This posting is just to announce that i installed a sitemap generator plugin for WordPress to Navelfluff. The plugin starts chunking away once i’ve actually written a new post. So it might just as well be this one.

En liten loop »

Jag satt här och försökte googla fram när min pappa dog, vilket antagligen var hösten 1981. Nå, den informationen har jag inte hittat (än), men här är ett litet sammanträffande. Pappa är lagd i grop på Mariehamns begravningsplats. Kapellet där visar sej vara ritat av Lars Sonck. Och min arbetsplats finns på Lars Soncks [...]
