Beneath each of my posts, you can find a few colorful icons that allow you to tweet this, post this to facebook, email this to somebody or get the RSS feed of this post. They are supplied by a WordPress plugin called Sociable.
Sociable however offers a lot more of these colorul icons. Here is a complete list:
(as usual, click to magnify so you don’t have to squint)
I grabbed this from http://blogplay.com/plugin-for-web/
So please, my dear readers, tell me what icons you want! If you know all of them, you’re pretty good, because some of them listed I have never even seen let alone heard of!

On twitter, I am known as @dikk (duuuuh!) but I don’t use very often, but still more frequently than my wordpress blog. I have 307 tweets now compared to 138 blogposts. Don’t underrate the blog though, for you can type an unlimited amount of characters as compared to only 140 characters! The purpose of each is different.
One of the purposes of twitter is for example to inform your twitter followers of things you have to say that take up more space than just 140 characters, and may even include multiple graphics (yay!), like my friend @oliverattweetin and his blog oliver @ blogging. He uses twitterfeed to auto-post a blogpost to his twitter. I also want to auto-post to my twitter, but will try a different tool: Twitter Tools, a wordpress plugin. Let’s see if it works.
Ok, didn’t work the first time. Let’s try this again.
Now it’s working!

Inspired by the name of the show This Week in Tech, I am giving you a new weekly blogpost category:
This week in awesome
This week in awesome will feature an awesome thing or story or picture or something else that I think is awesome, and you should definetely check it out. I’ve been posting some stuff about awesomeness before (see here, here and here) and I wanna continue doing that, but give it a common demoninator: This week in awesome.
Maybe I should change the name of my blog…
(By the way: This Week in Tech is also awesome!)

First priority for this blog now is to bring you all the previously saved drafts that have yet to be published. And when I say “previously” I mean dating back to over 1½ years ago.
Currently, I am on my MacBook Pro i7 in the S6 on my way to work. Thank God (or rather Thank Steve) for the super bright displays, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to see a thing in this bright sunlight.

All right, deriving from the comments on my previous post I will continue to blog and bore you to death with every little detail and uninteresting fact about my geeky life. You’re all masochists!
The title for this entry “Get ready for more blogging” was inspired by this (old) clip advertising “Get ready for more Star Trek!”:

Blogging has become so ’00. But I decided to pick it up again (after over a year!). I have a lot to tell you.
But I will only tell you if anybody is still reading my blog. Post a comment if you are!

Yes, my life will be changing soon drastically. A lot of thoughts are going through my head these days. A lot of stuff has happened too during the last month. I can’t tell you everything now. It’s gonna be one thought per post, gradually. Stay tuned.

Right now, I could talk about work all the time, because I had a customer on Tuesday morning who drove me insane. I was about to wave the white flag and walk away, not because of technical difficulties, but because of how her personality. But in the end, all went well.
Like I said, I could go into detail here, but I’m not gonna. Life is too short to talk about work all the time!
So I got this new app for my iPhone: Dr. Awesome. And let me tell you, it’s awesome (duh!). You tilt your iPhone to roll a ball around and trap the virtual viruses.
Though it gets repetitive over some time, it’s absolutely worth the CHF 1.10, I mean come on, you spend at least tenfold that amount on your lunch every day. Thank you, Tony, for suggesting Dr. Awesome! Let’s go eat Penne alla Arrabiata!
Another new awesome app I’ve got is Tap Tap Dance. It’s not free, unlike it’s brother Tap Tap Revenge, but if you like Basement Jaxx, Daft Punk and Justice, you’ll be delighted.
I have only been playing Tap Tap Revenge because I didn’t want to spend money (my middle name is Scrooge). But when I tested it on the iPod touches we have on the floor, I had so much fun when I discovered, that there are now notes to play with two and even three fingers.
If you have the rhythm in your blood, buy it. If not, take instrument lessons.
So it seams my Angel has finally decided to move to Miami. If all goes as planned, I will finally see her again in April at her new home. In the meantime I am promoting her blog and helping her with the technical challenges.
