Kubrick

So, this blog now uses the Kubrick team, even though I'm having a couple of problems with it. So I did a quick google to see how many admitted to using it, and I thought I'd link up a few here. I won't comment on the ones that haven't made any real changes, but since I'm planning to I thought I'd see what other people have been doing.

Solheim

I was recommended to have a look at the webpage to Maria Solheim, singer & lyric writer. I'll have to listen to some of her music.

Zoto

Zoto looks really nice, and I should visit it frequently because it has no RSS feed. Ehm.... that of course means, I'm putting the picture gallery for blogs up here and hope that I come back for it. I first read about this at PhotoMatt today, and even though he sais WordPress is not supported, obviously they're working at it. I'll give 'em a ping and ask for that RSS feed. I love image RSS feeds! :) Fresh photos, a glance of people's lives without reading all the time. Call me lazy, but I've always loved photos :)

A for the geeks variant on how to be creative is available at GapingVoid. I must admit disagree with his way of thinking, but by the sound of it, he's trying to make people think big and beyond. I'd prefer introducing people to the subtleties. But I'm no teacher, so when I find that someone has done this, I'll link to him. :)

Great hackers

In his article on Great Hackers, Paul Graham works on how productive coders actually like to work. This is a little piece I hope my current, my future and my past employers will read. While I'm sure they are heaps of exceptions, this is very much how it works for me. So if this is the kind of work I'll be doing, do read.

Developers recommended not to make comments in FreeBSD

Hendrik Scholz has made a great case in his article FreeBSD source keyword statistics that FreeBSD hackers should stop writing comments, or lie when writing them ;-)

US Military problems

An interesting site is http://www.seewhatyoushare.com where a lot of documents and images have been revieled that apparently have been shared through P2P networks. Someone learn the military how to use a computer. Anyways, the really great picture among them is this:

Hot Coffee

Remember Seinfeld's sketch with Kramer and the hot coffee? Well... happened to me today. You know it's a dangerous occupation when you have to go three stories to get a good cup of coffee

Repertoire for the Ringve Course

They're trying out a discussion/planning forum for the Ringve early music summer course at olavsfestdagene.no. Nothing fancy but I'm sure it does the job.
