The pre-baked approach to building software

Wednesday, 8 October 2008

For those few of you interested (is there anyone?): I've started a new blog. If this one is any measure, it will be a pretty dead one, but I think it's the thought that counts =)

Wednesday, 1 October 2008
If you like to laugh then the Apple presents the iRack clip may something for you - always again impressing how close political reality and good jokes can be :)

Tuesday, 30 September 2008
A few weeks ago, I decided to write a small utility to help me with my work and also to relearn Qt. This small utility enable me to control the boot process, update the firmware of various devices I have at home and at work. Read More
