langreiter .com got crazy news about rebol: view for mac is released and rebol in java is in development.
help! i am desperately searching for a universal mac-vga adapter without paying dollars or raising a credit... the apple dealers mentioned below really want to take nearly 500 ats for a small piece of plastic! if somebody in or around vienna could make a better offer, please contact me.
in my student's years learning how to write manuals for nuclear powerplants, i once joined a course about textual forms by graziella tonfoni. although she really tried hard to teach me about her cpp-trs invention and i really was impressed by her knowledge about writing as visual art (with a foreword by marvin minsky), i did not and still do not get the idea behind her research... i always considered myself not very compatible with the academic world. and so i missed a practical use for what i hardly could understand. while the title "how to merge harmoniously 'traditional' book reading and 'new' technology" sounds very clear to me, i feel lost in the words and concepts that should detail the idea.
however, i still keep on trying, maybe this article about context transport markup language will reveal something to me... (optimistically written).
development of internet usage according to the list of former students at the ludwig-uhland-gymnasium secondary.
although i like the splash page of tools-at-work, its appearance is totally contradictory to what they communicate: this "site" is definitely an example why the new economy went down the shit-shoot. it makes me wonder how they sell anything... (at least there is a phone number).
generally, it's bonjour tristesse to take a look at the websites of apple shops in vienna (including "my mac" which is missing in the list). surprisingly, their real selling floors look completely different most of the time, proper and noble instead of dysfunctional and messy. but you come down to earth again when they attend you as average customer. certainly with a few exceptions. well, and it definitely got better since ims, apple friends, net consult and braintrain crash landed together as 1stmatrix just shortly after they joined each other.
at last, my recommendations for apple shopping in vienna are: mcshark for new and macximum for old gear. and it's also worth a visit at it steininger.
hey, there is a wiki at mur.at! and another one at the technical university of graz! both made by reini urban who i once met at the thing vienna...
webdev discovered equill's visual teaming solutions (what a crap name) which is a neat little tool to layer remarks, post-it-like notes and markers over a web page.
moreover, it reminds me once again on crit.org as well as mprox which both provide possibilites to do similar things, however in quite a different context. crit.org looks very academic and scientific and probably is too darn complicated to be used quickly and widely.
mprox comes from the experimental arts corner (although the makers turn down "being at the right parties talking shit") and also does not impress with simplicity. moreover, one needs to configure the proxy settings of the browser to really use it. but as an experiment it has its charms, though.
i still think that services like these are in favor to dodgy techniques like smarttags.
mac users not only think different, looking at those hardware hacks.
lots of more amazing stories and images about apple history throughout the whole applefritter site.
whoa! currently i am working with a little insect and it's not a bug: it's an ant. sure, this task is related to antville. however, this ant does not live there.
it seems, as if version 1.2 of a certain application server finally is just around the corner... (but don't take my word for it).
why is os x slow? andrew welch: "projects without firm 'this far, no further' deadlines tend to stay in eternal beta, and never ship (witness many casual opensource projects that lack management or strong lead developers)".
