My New Sexy Camera – Canon EOS 400D

I’ve had my first couple of days testing my new camera: Canon EOS 400D.

..and must say I’m impressed! The camera is extremely fast, the battery holds up and it’s quite easy to use. Now I realize how slow my former Nikon Minolta was.

The uploading of pics to PC is also quite fast using the usb-cable and EOS utility programme. It’s easy too, just press the blue light on the camera when it’s connected. And still it’s no problem using other programmes at the same time on my poor, overloaded AMD-1800MHz/1GB-ram/Xp-computer – looks like the uploading utility programme just slows a bit down as not to overload the ram/processor.

The battery now died after uploading approximately two thirds of 600+ pics in high quality – not too bad considered I’ve used the camera intensely for two whole days (and quite a bit of the night).

So far: kudos to Canon. Guess I’ll write more on the subject when I’m more experienced.

E-Mail in your Snail Mail, anyone?!

I really don’t know what to think: Electronic snail mail/Snail e-mail?

Guessing I won’t be building one of those for some time.. Fun idea though

- and Knut Grøseth actually wanted one!

Apple goes to court again! This time they are fighting for their life?

Apple Taiwan Premium Reseller: “STUDIO A” Open, originally uploaded by wahaha_wu.

 

Apple are in conflict with the German company Medion. They are going to fight over the right to use the brand-name LIFE. Apple are planning to use the name iLife in their products, and feel the name LIFE is juuust a little too close.

The case is: In Norway Medion registered the product-name LIFE in february 1999 with all rights. Medion have not used the name in Norway – only a few products in other contries.
The problem is that in Norway a patent can be deleted if it isn’t used for 5 years, and Apples attorney, Trine Greaker Herzog (why is there no h before the o in her last name?), says: “Medion have not used the brand-name, and LIFE must therefore be deleted from the (Norwegian) registry.”

Apple do not want to use the name as is, but has recently registered the iLife name. Medion is the company complaining: They feel the brands/names are too similar and the poor public may be confused. So they are meeting in court at the end of August.

Ooooh – so exiting (just a tad ironic). Personally I’d let Apple use the name, and just make lots of cheap, similar products – then live happily ever after on some island, cashing in on the spinoff-effect…

I’ve blown 57 posts, no wonder I’m deflated

kosmic blogging in samsara, originally uploaded by ~C4Chaos.

 

I really need to find a daily routine that works. As a newbie in blogworld I obviously don’t know what I’m doing. I’ve grown increasingly more frustrated by the fact that during research on most subjects I’ve started writing about, I eventually loose my motivation due to the endless flow of information available. The more I learn, the more I realize my lack of knowledge. I want to get things right and provide useful, accurate and easily understandable, yet comprehensive information – just to end up getting confused myself… :S

I counted the articles/or posts I’ve nearly finished and the magic number is 57 – actually the number is much higher now due to the fact that this article originally was made two weeks ago. Jeeesuz Marimba!

Well, now I’m one step closer to my goals – because this article actually is posted!

 

Dating issues

Today I had my first experience of ‘copyrighted by women’-statements being used by a man:

• “..excuse me, but I’m just not that kind of guy.”
• “can’t we get to know each other a bit before we go straight into..”
• “I respect myself too much to be bullied into..”
• “I guess that’s just how I was raised.”

This spin on what you are willing to do on the first date (or on the second or third), by David Alberts, really cracked me up

Goooodbye Gilmore Girls

May 15. they’ll air the final episode of the show “Gilmore Girls”. I watched it for some time in the beginning, but Luke and Lorelai were so hopeless I got tired of it. So: Good riddens! And my ex will probably cry for a week, so thats a bonus (No, of course I’m not bitter..). I guess a lot of followers wish for a big Luke & Lorelai-wedding, and just for that I think I have to see it. ..oh, the suspense is killing me.. (softly)

it’s time to start

It’s time I start rambling soon. The last few weeks I’ve been busy reading up on blogging in general, and testing different tools. So far I think wordpress is the best online-blogging-tool-thing, but I’ll continue testing others. I’m also planning to learn how to use wordpress as a standalone tool for my later blogs.
