Wrestling with feedburner
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008So I’ve been really getting into this web bizz lately, and learned that no respecteable site uses normal rss feeds, but that you need to use feedburner. So now this site should be using it, i’ll see what happens, and hopefully the few followers I’ve got will stay with me ![]()

iPhone keynote
Tuesday, June 10th, 2008I just watched the WWDC keynote, and I’m really impressed by the iPhone 3g. Does it even have any flaws?
Am feeling the need to by one!
Take a look at the keynote here.

Web design
Sunday, June 8th, 2008So I’ve been looking into some web-design lately, want to start some nice cool ideas that I have, but before I get started I want to visualize it first. I’m not that good at the design part, or that’s what I keep telling myself anyway. But I do know whether it’s good or not, if it’s functional or not, and usually know what to do about it to get it functional and esthetic.
Anyhow, I came over this tutorial Create a Sleek, High-End Web Design from Scratch by PSDTUTS. I have read most of it, but not really gotten in to it. However, now I know that I really need to start working on my photoshop skills. ![]()
I’ll start off by making a new design to my dads company, and then I’ll see where it will lead! ![]()
I’ll show it later, at the moment it’s nothing I’m proud of…

TextFlow’s Shiny Document Collaboration System
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Just read about this company, really interesting really.
Seem to have quite a few nice features too.
I just signed up for a beta, I’m not so keen that I want to be using a too buggy version that they are letting you try now. However it seems like a good thing and I’ll probably start using it sooner och later, at least if it’s free.
Looks good anyhow.
Have a look!

iPhone to Sweden
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008The iPhone is probably the most commented, talked about and rumored product of late.
It’s been out for almost a year, but it hasn’t showed up on the market here in Sweden yet. This is weird since we quite often get the new things fairly quick. This has been a bit of a wounder for me, and I still haven’t really been able to reach any good conclusion. Hopefully soon I woun’t have to though! Apparently we are going to get the iPhone in a brief future!
But, I’m still not sure if it would fit me. The iPhone, however sleek and cool it is, is still a bit to big for me. The problem for me will be that there won’t be an option whether I have to bring it or not. I need my phone, and having a iPhone means that it has to be it. But I still really like the things you can do with it. So what I’m looking at at the moment is to by a iPod Touch and then keep my smaller phone. Then I can leave the Touch at home when I don’t feel like bringing it and still have a phone close by.
Anyhow, the phone is coming to Sweden!

Cool alternative to illegal download
Monday, May 26th, 2008As you might have noticed, there has been quite a buzz lately about the downloading from different sites around the net. Especially the bittorrent networks has been targeted.
But now the swedish association of music, it’s close anyway, have come up with a really cool idea. The idea is that you add $10 to your broadband bill, and then you can download as much music as you want. And hey guess what it’s legal! I would do that without thinking twice. It’s a decent price and I can contribute to the artist. Instead of paying $1 a song at iTunes, which is a redicilous price.
For you Swedes reading this, take a look

Plaxo & BusySync
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008So today I’ve been trying to find a substitute for my BusySync trial, since I try to do as much free as possible.
I surfed around a bit and found out about Plaxo, which apparently was supposed to be able to do what I needed, a two way sync from my iCal to gCal. I sat down and spent almost two hours trying to get it work until I kicked it out of my computer again. Really didn’t work at all as BusySync, that has really been working beautifully.
If there is anyone of you out there that know of a good program please tell me. Cause I’m really needing this, and can’t really find a good substitute.
There is the GCALDaemon, but it’s kind of an unnecessary hard install, am waiting until that install gets better then maybe that is a good exchange to BusySync.
Anyhow, need to find something with a bi-directional sync for iCal and gCal, if there is anyone out there that knows a good substitute, please tell!
