Det er en søt historie om en fyr som veddet om han kunne samle inn en million giraffer fra hele verden, kun gjennom oppfordringer på internett. Det er noen utrolig fine bilder som han har mottatt også. Historien og mange flotte tegninger kan sees på aftenbladet.no

During my vacation in the US, I was a regular customer of Starbucks. In addition to selling beverages, they also sell equipment like mugs and tumblers. I brought two Starbucks mugs with me home, but during a hard landing on the kitchen floor, one of my mugs got broken (and my heart with it). Then [...]

Don’t put tomatoes and cucumber together in the refrigerator. This was (one) of the lunch discussions at work today and this was new knowledge to me. I even found an article about what food to put in the refrigerator (Norwegian) that was interesting. When the lunch discussion evolved into talking about eating snails, insects and [...]
Doctorow’s First Law (0)
8/08/10 •
“Any time someone puts a lock on something that belongs to you, and won’t give you a key, they’re not doing it for your benefit.” Cory Doctorow This is an interesting article about Cory Doctorow’s struggle to remove DRM from his e-books. The very good news is that he succeeded with Amazon, Barnes & Noble, [...]
Ja til moms på ebøker! (0)
8/04/10 •
Norske bøker har vært fritatt for moms, så når regjeringspartiene avviste forslag om fritak fra moms på ebøker kom dette som en overraskelse på mange. Momsfritaket har vært knyttet til fysiske bøker, lydbøker og tidsskrifter som har et politisk, litterært eller kulturelt innhold. På tross av momsfritaket på bøker har bøkene fortsatt vært dyre. Innbundne [...]

I’m really looking forward to when the DRM on the iPad epub is broken, so it’s worthwhile purchasing books there.

A couple of days ago I wrote about Sugarsync, a service that stores all your data online and makes the data available on most devices. I have spent some days uploading all my data (which takes a bit of time). Since I have data going at least ten years back or more, one can safely [...]
The french ban on burqa (0)
7/19/10 •
Klassekampen had a good statement about the french ban on burqa (norwegian). The ban has to be violating one, if not several human rights. The ban will probably go some rounds in court, ending up at The International Court of Justice in Hague.

I have a lot of data – that’s where it started. Secondly, I use a lot of computers and operating systems (OS). I have a private macbook pro, a notebook with windows, a work computer (usually with Linux), iphone and ipad. My main need was to be able to access all my files from all [...]

Massive Attack have a new album, Heligoland. As good albums usually do, it took a little time and several listening’s for it to grow on me. Below is the youtube video of my favorite song on the album.

Me and Espen took a trip to Cafe Sting since this week they had a garlic week. Since today was the last day, their menu had been shortened down. I still managed to get a vegetarian pasta alfredo, but it wasn’t very good. Better luck to me next year (Sting has a garlic week every [...]

Anybody who even slightly follow my life, know that I have a passion for mocca. But it isn’t only about the mocca, it’s about going into the city, looking at people, being on my own and just relaxing with a tasteful mocca, a book or may be write a blog entry like I’m doing now [...]
As the ash is blowing in the wind (0)

I’m thinking about high-speed trains and the benefits it would provide the society. The last three days of plane less skies and volcano ash shows just how vulnerable we are when we rely on one primary way of transportation. Having high-speed trains between the major cities in Europe would make the infrastructure less vulnerable when [...]
