The writings of Peter Stuifzand

While I was working on the code that works with my comments, some bot posted a spam comment. I thought that would only work on weblogs that use popular software. Maybe my site uses names that are obvious enough for a bot to find out.

As it's not possible to post html or other markup to my comments, the entry is show as text and isn't harmful (or useful) to anyone.

Now that I have this nice phone, I'm looking for a way to synchronize my contacts, calendar items and todo lists. On Windows there is the Nokia PC suite, but that won't work on linux.

I already found gnokii and Multisync, but the first is not usable enough and I can't get the second working with my phone. The first problem could probably be solved by using some scripts, but I was looking for an easier solution, like a one click synchronize.

I problably have to script some things myself (that's no pain), but it would have been nice to have something working already.

Aliennation is nominated for March Metal Madness and needs your vote to get to the next round. So wait no longer and go take a look and listen to the songs on the website and cast your vote.

Ok, so I already have a job for about three weeks, but still. It's great. All day long Perl programming. What more can one ask for?

I'm not sure I can tell about the company I work for, so I won't.

For the first time in two years I have a phone. It's a Nokia 6021. I would like to try and write some software for it. Maybe it's possible, or maybe not.

The phone has Bluetooth support and is actually quite simple. So that's good. I hope it will work with linux. You never know.

When you read this and you think you need my number, please send me an e-mail.
