whoisi theme

I posted about this on twitter already, but I hacked together a quick user theme for the excellent whoisi service.

It works with either stylish or greasemonkey (there are two versions on the theme’s page, one for each excellent Firefox extension).

no GUADEC for me…

I was intending on going to this year’s GUADEC in Istanbul, Turkey… but, unfortunately, I’ve been having an amazingly horrid apartment experience.  I call it “the flat fiasco”.

A few recent travel photos

As always, I have lots more photos I need to post (and some on Flickr that I haven’t pointed out here), but here are a few photographs to share with you of my travels around the world in the past couple months.

streetcar in Liberec

I visited Jakub in Liberec, CZ

walking in Wrocław

…then went to Wroclaw for LGM

sunrise in Little Rock

After that, I went to Savannah to visit family,and rode 1/2-way across the USA in a packed van.  (This is a shot from our hotel room in Little Rock, at Sunrise.)

We ended up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for my cousin’s wedding, and a family reunion. (This picture is from Tulsa, but obviously not the wedding.)

June snow

purple mountains

the cloud hovers over

After getting back to Nürnberg, I went to Munich for the weekend.

Nat, Stephanie, James, and I went hiking around the foothills of the Alps on a Saturday.

love that breaks the rules

under the archway

in the lens

…Then we visited Regensburg on Sunday.

Now I’m back in Nürnberg, taking this weekend off from travel (and don’t really have a photo to illustrate this last point).

Hope you enjoyed this little blog post! (You can see more of my photos on Flickr.)

Firefox 3!

Today is Firefox Download Day, and the release of Firefox 3.  Go get (and install) Firefox (it’s available for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows too), and be counted as part of a world record!

이 모든 것이 읽어 봅니다. (I scommessa non è possibile, senza un aiuto!)

Ich finde es lustig, dass die Leute sich beschweren über andere Sprachen als Englisch auf Planet GNOME… und dass sie tun es in englischer Sprache. Threfore, ich bin dieses Posting nicht auf Englisch, aber einige Google Übersetzt Deutsch.

Pour le mélange encore plus, je pourrais ainsi poste dans d’autres langues. Ce paragraphe est en français.

كما احب العربية ، على الرغم من انني لا يستطيع القراءة او الكتابة ، الا من خلال صور سحريه للترجمة. ومن جميل عندما تبحث اللغة المكتوبة بها على الرغم من ذلك انه سيكون من العار ان لا تدرجهه

自UTF-8存在,我们可以张贴的东西在网路上以多种语文,我可能会以及不会离开了中国。

…または除外日本語、のいずれかです。

Надеюсь этого блога не будет катастрофы в браузере.

Αν σας λέει, “Λοιπόν, δεν μπορώ να διαβάσω όλα αυτά!” Αυτό είναι εντάξει. Αν μπορείτε να διαβάσετε ένα ή περισσότερα, τότε αυτό είναι μεγάλη. Για τα υπόλοιπα, ίσως να λέει, “Αυτός είναι ο Έλληνας που μου!”

Si está ofendido por esta falta de Inglés correo, entonces me siento.

Echter, als je echt wil weten wat ik heb geschreven, kunt u gebruik maken van Google Translate.

क्या एक अच्छा दिन है . मैं आपको डाक से भविष्य में फिर से अंग्रेजी में है .

wish I could post

There’s an error on my blog’s host that prevents me from posting anything interesting, such as pictures. Sorry. (I’ve tried a few times over the past couple weeks.)

  1. I tried posting that I have new pictures on Flickr. (Check them out! They’re from Paris, France!)
  2. I would also post something about donating to the Libre Graphics Meeting (complete with a cute little button graphic). I’ve donated; you should too!

(The issue seems related to some over-zealous security software on the host that doesn’t like images linked from remote sites, it seems.)

UPDATE: Thanks for the quick fix, Myron! Things work again! Woohoo! (:
