The “define:” keyword in google search is a nice little thing to know when you want an explantion of a concept, a word or whatever you want defined. So I searched google for “define:blog” which came with different explanations gathered from around the Internet.
Most people would probably say it is a website where someone is keeping a journal of something, be it personal diary or some kinda of corporate/business or something else. There can be one contributor or several and usually there will be new entries on a regular basis.
So, now I wonder if this site should really be called a blog.
This afternoon, a boring sunday one of the them, its spring and sun is shining and I am watching TV. There is nothing better to watch than the Paris-Roubaix, which seems to be the sickest bicycle road race one can imagine. You have a bike, the tires are really thin like any other race bike and the race is on cobblestones and the terrain is rough. The distance is more than 250km. Then I wonder where the fun is in this. The bikes have no absorbations from the bumpy roads, so the shakings are really hard on the participants. Also, there are so many crashes, why would somebody risk broken bones and other injuries just to participate. It sure is painful to go through to the finish line, but so much for the prestige in a race like this?
Ok. I admit it, I never really understood any part of any bicycle road race on the professional level. All races seems to me, judged on the words of riders to the medias covering the races and the expressions on their faces during the race, to be very painful and no fun at all.
Based on the many hours that TV2 uses to show bicycle races, I think someone must be interested in this sport. Even though its a boring sport taking up to much time in my TV, it does have some tactical aspects to it, but its slow and they are sort of getting nowhere. So why do people watch this, follow the race every year and get excited about the race? And its not only this race, its also so many other races, each race going from one day up to as many as the three weeks tour de france lasts. Each day taking 5 hours. Seems to be waste of time.
I will conclude that though the TV2 set aside so much time for this sport, they are still worng in doing so. There are so much other sports that could be covered, which would be more excitiing to watch. But, who cares, you only watch tv when you are bored anyway, so the fact that whats inside the tv is boring too, shouldnt really consern me. I guess im just bored that I watch it.
As the administrator of a small network, I sometimes have to deal with users that mess up their network connections. So, today one came to me and I had a look at the computer and was thinking “this doesn’t make any sense”. Then I looked over all the settings in the computer and everything was what it was supposed to be… conclusion: its not the computer that has the problem. Next I went to the router setup (the device that controls the network users permissions), and there too, all settings were just the way they had to be.. and I dobble checked to be sure.
Since nothing was wrong, though something was wrong anyhow, I deleted an entry in the router and put in exactly what I had deleted. Wolla… it works. But still, it makes no sense that it should be the way to fix the problem.
Anybody ever thought of renaming the word technology to technounlogy ?
When wordpress 2.7 was released I downloaded it to my computer right away. Somehow I haven’t upgraded my blog untill now. The new wordpress should have some nice new features (i have been told), but it just do not support the old iTheme, which I have used in 2.6. Too bad, because I liked it and it was a nice theme.
Now I found something different, not really sure if I like it, but will stick with this theme for now.
