  • Mike and Thomas

    I just returned from the theatre in Gouda where I watched the performance of Mike en Thomas. These two comedians use music and slapstick in a way that makes it look easy but leaves you flabbergasted after all. How about a very jazzy song about how much Mike hates Jazz. Or the observations in the office...

  • New era

    Since November 1st I’ve switched jobs and am no longer working at Class-A. I’ve had a really good time there and was unaware of the growth someone (like me) could make when you start a career as trainer and coach. Some of my colleagues were the best to work with, both professionally and personally. Thanks...

  • Zune player in taskbar

      This is pretty sweet, you can have the Zune player in your taskbar. On previous version of Windows, I had my media player up there. But now the Zune player has this ability in Windows 7 as well. If you have the Zune 4.0 software installed you can right-click the Windows 7 taskbar, select toolbars...

  • Travel Light Tip

    If you are an expierenced flyer you probably recognize this picture. You are bound for home. Due to some regulations you have to appear two hours early to go through a routine that only takes 5 minutes. Before you had a chance to enter your flight you're bored to dead. Just after boarding you find...

  • Sao Miguel - Architecture

    It is mandatory to pay attention to the specific architectural beautiness of your vacation destination. The Bradt guide did describe for every single town the churches/chapels and other historic buildings of interest. You'll notice that although Sao Miguel is the green island this doesn't count...

  • Sao Miguel - The Craters

    As you probably know the Azores are formed by volcanic activity. It gives the island its dramatic landscape with gentle slopes, steep cliffs, typical almost symetrical lakes, micro climate and stunning views. The best way to experience the crater landscape form my point of view is to hike in, over and...

  • Sao Miguel

    Last week I spend my vacation on Sao Miguel , the largest island of the Azores. I needed the help of a colleague to persuade me to actually book the trip (thanks Jantine) and another colleague, Teresa, adviced me with respect to the destination. Being a meticulous holiday planner I booked the flight...

  • UPC Sucks (2)

    My first blog post with the title UPC sucks is the #1 hit on Bing and the #5 hit on Google. Unfortunately it is time to add another such post. UPC is a cable company that has a monopoly on cable tv in large parts of the Netherlands. I have two UPC mediaboxes for watching digital tv and using the UPC...

  • Speed improvements in FlickrMetadataSynchr by exploiting parallelism

    Yesterday I worked on a new version of my FlickrMetadataSynchr tool and published the 1.3.0.0 version on CodePlex . I wasn’t really planning on creating a new version, but I was annoyed by the old version in a new usage scenario. When you have an itch you have to scratch it! And it is always good to...

  • Devnology & after party (OffTopic)

    Today the Devnology meeting with Rob Vens was held at Class-A in Woerden. It was a fun and interesting evening, you can probably read more about it soon on the Devnology site. One thing I have to throw online though is what happened after the meeting. A lot of people stayed to chat about technology and...

  • Re-inventing Programming

    Just subscribed to the next Devnology meeting. This one will be an expert meeting. Normally Devnology is all about communication and sharing experiences and knowledge, but this evening Rob Vens will be speaking about Re-inventing programming. At the end there’s room for discussion though and it promises...

  • Twikini, the mobile twitter client

    I’ve owned a Windows Mobile for some time, currently the HTC Tytn which sure is up for replacement. But I’m really waiting for the HTC Touch Pro 2 or the HTC Hero or something. With internet on it, it’s great to have the ability to check your email, search the internet when you’re waiting or be able...

  • Improving the CIA Pickup Sample App for Windows Azure

    Ever since the internal unveiling of Windows Azure as project “ Red Dog ” at our internal TechReady conference in July 2008, I’ve been very interested in this Software+Services platform. Technical strategist Steve Marx from the Windows Azure team recently released a cool sample app called The CIA Pickup...

  • It’s The Little Things: PNG Transparency In Win7 Explorer

    Sometimes it’s attention to detail that excites me the most. I just noticed the beautiful rendering of PNGs with transparency in the Pictures Library view in Explorer in Windows 7 ( RC build ): You can get this view by selecting Arrange by Month in the upper right-hand corner of the Pictures library...
