Tides are turning

So I better go back now

Mobilewhack being just _slightly_ old-fashioned?

Mobilewhack just posted a review on a SIM-card-reader - and actually recommends it. Now... who REALLY needs such a beast anymore?

Most phones store contacts in internal flash, not on the SIM, as the internal memory allows for more details and more contacts to be stored. And synching services like ZYB allow you to backup your contacts and other data without much effort... so what's the point of SIM readers? Comments, anyone?

Just a snapshot

No reason (rotation fixed now - and in case you're wondering, I just tested mobile blogging and took a snap in the Cologne cathedral)

Playing with PGP

Ever since I migrated from Pegasus Mail to Thunderbird (and thus GPG/Enigmail), encrypting my email has become so easy I barely had to think about it anymore - it's been ages since I've been thinking about how to do serious stuff with PGP, like rolling out a company-wide key management infrastructure, what procedures to use to sign/share/distribute keys etc...

Guess it's time to refresh my skills a bit - working on a (very) small presentation about to get back into the lingo, then maybe build a small keyserver on the NSLU at home...

The Red Shirt Conspiracy

There's a story on Wired that proves once and for all: There WAS a conspiracy against the poor red-shirt wearing guys on Star Trek... 73% of all crewmembers killed were red-shirted.

So, if you ever go to a convention and plan to wear a classic costume... don't wear red, your life may depend on it.

Oh, for ST:NG yellow is the new red, mind you... ;-)

Driving home

Time to have a weekend :-)

So now what?

Now I've got a blog - but what do I do with it? Any suggestions?

Say, is this thing on?

Well, hello there!
