ModelConverterX update avaible

Today I handed in the key of my old house, so the moving "project" is now really finished. The last days I already had some more time to do some programming on my FS tools again, so as a result of that I have also been able to release a new...

Why are trains delayed?

Today I spotted this announcement at the train station when going to work. It seems to explain very well why the trains are so often delayed here in the Neterlands. For those of you not speaking Dutch, the announcement says that they will be adapting...

Start of spring

Today was supposed to be the start of spring, but looking at the weather outside (snow, rain, cold) it seems not really to be the case yet. There is even some chance that we get a white Easter this year, maybe that can compensate for the lack of white...

Good old scanner

This week I have been cleaning my computer room a bit and I came across my old flatbed scanner. You know, such a thing that was used before we had digital cameras to get a photo onto the computer as a digital file. I think I bought this one about 10 years...

Blog theme (changed again)

You might have noticed that over the last days I changed the theme a few times. Yesterday I thought I had found the one I liked most (the white one), but today I found out that it does not list the links to the ohers blogs. So I switch back to another...

Back home from Florida

This weekend I arrived again at home after my trip to the I/ITSEC in Orlando for work. I have got rid of most of the jetlag by now, although I guess it will take me a few days to get back on speed with the forums and emails again. The fact that we celebrate...

Panoramic photos

When on vacation I always like to make panoramic images, because that gives a much nicer view of the landscape. And also because my camera, a Canon Powershot A70, has a nice setting for that. Until now I mainly used the software supplied with the camera...
