			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Web comics are a great way to escape the dullness of work for a moment. If you&#8217;re just starting to read a comic that has been around for some time, it is actually possible to spend an afternoon enjoying the development of characters&#8217; personalities and the comic artists’ drawing skills while clicking through hundreds of comic strips. For the geeks, bicycling aficionados, and hip indie rockers among my dear readership, i can heartily suggest taking a look at <a href="http://xkcd.com/">xkcd</a>, <a href="http://www.yehudamoon.com">Yehuda Moon</a>, and <a href="http://questionablecontent.net/">Questionable Content</a>. Take your time.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>On my old email address (word at anarchitect dot org) i get a lot of spam these days. So i thought i discontinue it, as i don&#8217;t use it that often anymore anyway. I added this auto-reply so that my contacts that don&#8217;t have my new address are directed to the right location and nasty spammers would not just parse it from the auto-reply message:</p>
	<blockquote><p>I have suspended using this Email address.<br />
Please, go to my <a href="http://www.mariandoerk.de/About/Contact">contact page</a> to get in touch with me.<br />
Thanks for your understanding!</p>
	<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..</p>
	<p>I habe dieses Emailadresse eingestellt. Um mit mir in<br />
Kontakt zu tretten, benutze bitte <a href="http://www.mariandoerk.de/About/Contact">dieses Formular</a>.<br />
Vielen Dank für dein Verständnis!</p>
	<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..</p>
	<p>Terminé usar esa e-mail. Por favor, visite <a href="http://www.mariandoerk.de/About/Contact">esta pagina</a><br />
para poner en contacto conmigo.<br />
Gracias por tu comprensión.</blockquote>
Only problem is that spammers use existing sender addresses they found on the Web. Hence, my auto-responder would automatically increase spam-caused traffic and annoyances for those whose email address was hijacked. Therefor i will just discontinue the mailbox silently and hope that people that want to reach me would remember my name and search for it and would somehow come <a href="http://www.mariandoerk.de/About/Contact">to this page</a>.</p>
	<p>And by the way: this is, of course, proof of my capitulation to the state of email these days. It seems as if email is broken, yet, it still works well enough considering its importance and relevance in professional and personal communication. May somebody have mercy and fix it?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>If you are involved in Web development in any way there is usually a point in the timeline of a project where you want to see what our dear Internet Explorer is doing with the pages that have worked just fine in your <a href="http://browsehappy.com/">browser of choice</a> and even for the <a href="http://validator.w3.org/">W3C&#8217;s</a> <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/">validators</a>. Well, if you happen to be using a non-Windows platform chances are that you don&#8217;t have an IE at hand – let alone different versions.</p>
	<p><a href="http://www.ipinfo.info/netrenderer/">NetRenderer</a> to the rescue! The German company <a href="http://geotek.de/en/">GEOTEK</a> offers a service that renders Web pages on the fly in IE 5.5, 6 or 7 as PNGs. So there is almost no need for VirtualPC/Parallels/etc anymore. While you will only see the upper 740 pixels of the page in question and are not able to interact with it you can still check if positioning and basic styles work out fine. Very handy i must say. Something i have looked for for quite some time.</p>
	<p>You can make it even more handy if you are using things like <a href="http://www.kitzkikz.com/Sogudi">Sogudi</a> for Safari or Firefox&#8217;s <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/smart-keywords.html">Quick Search</a>. Typing &#8220;ie http://www.anarchitect.org&#8221; into the addressbar would then show the page at NetRenderer as rendered by IE.

The makers of the DRM mechanism for HD-DVDs really had a sense for how colors work in combination. The hexadecimal string of numbers that is used to decrypt a copy-protected HD-DVD can be turned into a very appealing set of colors. So if you are wondering what kind of colors you want to apply to your next website project, <a href="http://www.hd-dvd-tee.com/">t-shirt design</a>, or stencil you can turn to this code.</p>
	<p>Note also the recent <a href="http://digg.com/tech_deals/Digg_HD_DVD_meltdown">revolt at Digg.com</a> some days ago around the issue of publishing the code or not.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Wow, that is just awesome. The makers of <a href="http://bibdesk.sourceforge.net/">BibDesk</a>, a wonderful open source bibliography manager, have just released <a href="http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/">Skim</a>, an application that allows you to annotate, highlight, and evalue scientific papers that come as PDFs. The tagline of Skim is &#8220;stop printing and start skimming.&#8221; That is actually something i have looked for for a long time. Skim follows an interesting approach and takes reading papers to a new level. It has got some pretty neat features – read what one of the developers Michael O McCracken has to <a href="http://michael-mccracken.net/wp/2007/04/02/announcing-skim-stop-printing-start-skimming/">say about it in his blog</a>. Also try it out if you have Mac OS X running. I can&#8217;t wait to include Skim into my reading/writing workflow. My <a href="http://www.atomique.org/files/studienarbeit.pdf">internship thesis</a> comes out in it really well ;)</p>

Oklahoma based Janet has got a lot more gear on her Cafépress shop called <a href="http://www.cafepress.com/mrlibn/">Radical Militant Librarians Unite!</a> - Good stuff. Now back to work.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>We – Bubi, Joe and i – have &#8216;just&#8217; talked about a mechanical apparatus that would be programmed to prepare coffee in the morning just like this breakfast machine in the first Back to the Future movie that even included preparing an egg. Well, now that we are living in the wonderful world of the web 2.0 we can get quite a lot of inspiration by viewing clips of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rube_Goldberg_machine">Rube Goldberg machines</a>. Bubi – a bright mechatronics student – has just send me <a href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2367646121273499414">this one</a> where a tea bag is finally thrown into a cup – after detouring a marble  around a labyrinth of things. I would like to add some <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=MlVpCcJ-89s">Japanese jewels</a> of Rube Goldberg machines with impressive mechanics, materials, and music. More of these kinda things on <a href="http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=Rube+Goldberg+machine">Google Video</a> or <a href="http://youtube.com/results?search_query=Rube+Goldberg+machine&amp;search=Search">YouTube</a>. DIY at its best.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Wann hast du das letzte Mal die Feststelltaste bewusst betätigt? Wir reden von jener Taste, die auf wohl fast allen gegenwärtig produzierten Computertastaturen zwischen Umschalttaste und Tabulatortaste verortet ist. Ich meine zufällig betätige ich sie oft, weil sie mir zwischen Tab- und Shifttaste öfters mal unter die Finger kommt. Aber ich kann mich an keinen Zeitpunkt jüngerer Vergangenheit erinnern, da ich bewusst ALLES FOLGENDE GROSZSCHREIBEN WOLLTE. Selbst nicht im Chatfenster. Viel zu mühsam, die dann wieder auszuschalten. Auszerdem ist es nicht meine Art zu schreien. Ich kann mich also nur Pieter Hintjens&#8217; Bewegung <a href="http://capsoff.blogspot.com/">CAPSoff</a> anschlieszen: Die Feststelltaste muss gehen. Sie hat ihre Dienste getan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Als ich Deutschland vor nun schon mehr als 4,5 Monaten verliesz, musste ich auch mein tazabo unterbrechen. Ich hatte der netten Frau von der Aboabteilung versichert, dass ich prinzipiell an der digitaz interessiert wäre, sie aber dann eher in einer am Rechner zu verdauenden Neuigkeitenspeisung (engl. news feed) zu mir nehmen würde. Nun, nachdem die <a href="http://www.deramateur.de/presse/">meisten</a> <a href="http://www.antikriegsgruppe.de/blog/">Schwergewichte</a> im eiskalten Geschäft der Weltverbesserung bereits Bock auf Blog hatten und zumeist noch haben, ist auch die tageszeitung auf den Zug zur Sonne, zur Freiheit aufgesprungen. Die taz hat endlich <a href="http://www.taz.de/blogs/">tazblog</a>. Wie bei anderen konventionellen Medienanbietern wirkt das alles noch ein wenig so wie ein Testlabor neben dem eigentlichen Kerngeschäft mit der Druckausgabe. So ist der geneigte Leser mit einer Handvoll von Autorenweblogs konfrontiert, die ich erstmal alle (manuell weil der kombininierte Feed nicht funktionieren wollte) abonniert habe. Inhaltlich kann ich noch nicht so viel sagen, aber die Blognamen wirken verheiszungsvoll: <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/wortistik">Wortistik</a>, <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/hausmeisterblog">Hier spricht der Aushilfshausmeister!</a> oder <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/bildschirmtext">Bildschirmtext</a>. Auszerdem fällt mir auf, dass gewisse Themen, die ich doch eigentlich schon mit anderen Blogs besetzt habe, nun auch mitunter vom tazblog beackert werden. So gibt es einen Blog über <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/zeichenblog">Zeichnen und Comics</a>. Auszerdem gibt es zwei Blogs zum Überwachungsstaat: <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/paranoia">Alle(s) unter Kontrolle</a> und <a href="http://taz.de/blogs/stop1984">STOP 1984</a>. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die tazblogs entwickeln werden und freue mich auf inspirierende und augenöffnende Beiträge. Die tagtägliche taz werde ich aber dann aber trotzdem wieder abonnieren.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Ich befinde mich ja hier in Santiago im Praktikum und beschäftige mich mit  sozialer, webbasierter Software. Neben dem Studium dessen, was es da so schon so in die Richtung gibt, ist der wesentliche Teil des Praktikums dafür gedacht, seine Ideen praktisch umzusetzen. Bei webbasierten Dingen gibt es eine Vielfalt an Ebenen, Sprachen und Kontexten, die vor die Verheiszungen von <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_%28Programmierung%29">Ajax</a> schweisztreibende Webprogrammierung gesetzt haben. Mensch ist mit Umgebungen stark variierender Eckdaten konfrontiert, wo mal diese Bibliothek vorhanden ist oder eine andere Funktionalität nicht unterstützt wird. Außerdem muss mensch mit mindestens vier Sprachen einigermaßen umgehen können, um ein zeitgemäßes Nutzungserlebnis zu gewährleisten.</p>
	<p>Es gibt verschiedene Ansätze sich diesem Dickicht zu nähern: <a href="http://www.rubyonrails.com/">Ruby on Rails</a> ist jüngst dafür berühmt und beliebt geworden, anspruchsvolle Programmierungskonzepte in die bisher eher schmutzige Welt des Webs zu tragen, und somit das Programmiererlebnis – was bei der ganzen Nutzerzentrierung nicht zu vernachlässigen ist – zu verbessern. Besonders zu erwähnen ist das Konzept der <a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_Controller">Modell-Präsentation-Steuerung</a> (engl. Abk. MVC), das eine Trennung zwischen Darstellungs- und Datenschicht vorgibt, um Programmiercode besser zu strukturieren und Programmkomponenten unabhängig voneinander pflegen zu können.</p>
	<p>Das Problem mit Ruby on Rails ist aber, dass es bislang noch zu wenig verbreitet ist. Strebt mensch also eine möglich weite Verwendung seiner Software an, bleibt ihm bislang erstmal nur PHP. Unter dieser Maszgabe haben sich einige PHP-Programmierer die Ansätze und Ideen von Ruby on Rails angeschaut, für gut befunden und versucht jene Konzepte in PHP abzubilden. Dank <a href="http://blog.cybernotic.org/">Bubi</a> bin ich auf <a href="http://www.cakephp.org/">CakePHP</a> gestoszen, das genau das versucht. So beschäftige mich in diesen Tagen intensiv damit und habe heute <a href="http://wiki.cakephp.org/tutorials:config_in_database">mein erstes Tutorial</a> geschrieben.</p>
	<p>In der Cake Bakery gibt es eine Liste <a href="http://cakebakery.de/2006/07/29/deutschsprachige-cakephp-ressourcen/">mit deutschsprachigen Ressourcen</a> bezüglich Cake.

	<p>I really enjoy doing nightshots these days. In fact, i have used my camera (canon ixus 400, sometimes also sold as powershot or elph) almost exclusively with the extended exposure feature lately. I am sure other digicams have it, too. So instead of walking my camera during the day, i get her out during night. The colors are so much different. If you have a (digital) camera at hand you should really try it out. The &#8216;technique&#8217; is dead simple:</p>
	<ol>
<li>Wait until it&#8217;s dark outside. You could read a book or talk to your flatmates in the meanwhile.</li>
	<li>Walk around your neighborhood and find a nice scene to take a picture of.</li>
	<li>Extend the exposure time according to need or gusto.</li>
	<li>Place your camera on a steady surface, e.g. the ground. Tripods are also great, but not always at hand.</li>
	<li>Do it. Take the picture.</li>
</ol>
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/anarchitect/209428649/"><img src="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/nightshots2.jpg" height="337" width="450" align="" border="0" hspace="0" vspace="2" alt="" title="" longdesc="" style="float: " class="align" /></a></p>
	<p>Too easy. It is all about experimenting with your photographic device. But just a few more notes, to get you kick started:</p>
	<ul>
<li>Color the sky. Cool effects are possible with the sky being almost black. With extended exposure it will turn red, purple and/or blue.</li>
	<li>Let it rain. Wet surfaces will make your result far more colorful.</li>
	<li>Cars suck. But when it comes to nightshots they add the essential effect of red and yellow light lines.</li>
	<li>Do it often. Take more than one picture of a given scene with different exposure levels. This way you decide later what suits you best.</li>
	<li>Money, money. Use some coins to adjust the angle, especially if you put the camera on the ground.</li>
</ul>
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/anarchitect/tags/nightshot/">Those nightshots that i&#8217;ve uploaded to Flickr</a> have not been edited in any way. It&#8217;s just extra long exposure goodness. If anybody reading this has some results, please leave a link. I reeaally like nightshots. Ooops, its getting dark outside. Gotta go.</p>
	<p><em>Thanks again to the </em><em><a href="http://www.utahinrichs.de/">Ente</a></em><em> who has prodded me to the night mode feature of my camera and to </em><em><a href="http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~clobos/">ClobS</a></em><em> who has ignited my appreciation of nightshots a few months ago by showing </em><em><a href="http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~clobos/around/index.html">his nocturnal view on Santiago</a></em><em>.</em>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I was going to blog about that some weeks ago, and now that <a href="http://blog.cybernotic.org/?p=17">cybernotic</a> was faster, i just add some quick thoughts. There seems to be a wave of (influential and advanced) Mac users switching away from the Mac as Apple gets bigger and starts doing Microsoftish things. The two articles that started this discourse were by <a href="http://diveintomark.org/archives/2006/06/02/when-the-bough-breaks" title="Mark Pilgrim">Mark Pilgrim</a>  and <a href="http://www.boingboing.net/2006/06/29/mark_pilgrims_list_o.html" title="Cory Doctorow">Cory Doctorow</a>. The main reasons stated for leaving the Mac behind were the decreasing quality of Apple software and that the data created or maintained with this software often becomes an &#8220;undocumented binary black hole&#8221; as Mark has put it.</p>
	<p>I am still happy in regard to the software. Mac developers eat usabilty every morning with their breakfast so that the software i use allows me to be pleasantly productive – apart from my daily procrastination. Even though Apple seems to become more evil on some parts, they still have the lead in designing an innovative system with the user in mind.</p>
	<p>I would be happier if all my personal belongings (e.g. pim data) would be stored in well-documented xml, so that staying with the Mac is not a matter of a vendor lock-in. Of course it would be also cool if we see some more open sourcing – not very likely.</p>
	<p>I would be a lot happier if Apple would turn itself into a self-ruled collective where the designers, programmers and factory workers work under fair conditions with a good pay – not at all likely. Furthermore the side-effects on the environment and world regions in crisis need to be considered when producing computer hardware. Yet those latter complaints also count within the Linux world (<a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2006/07/02/free-software-and-anarchism/">more on this here</a>).</p>
	<p>Right now i don&#8217;t have the patience to switch, but i am sure the day will come. The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLOSS">FLOSS</a> world has quite a few things to offer. The most obvious is the open nature of a thriving community that is devoted to creating software. While Mac fans get nervous (incl. me) waiting for the next keynote by Steve Jobs to listen to his words, the open source community gets work done through a compellingly open process. While Mac OS X still is technically more innovative, Linux &#38; Co is socially, politically, and economically far more progressive.

	<blockquote><p>… any man [or woman] who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his [or her] towel is, is clearly a man [or woman] to be reckoned with.</blockquote>
You always should know where you&#8217;ve got your towel – well, at least today. Otherwise you might miss the chance of a lifetime to have participated in the internationally celebrated <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Towel_Day">Towel Day</a> in 2006 which happens to be today, May 25th. I have recently talked to Marco about Douglas Adams having been also a mac aficionado and now the day of the commemoration of the Hitchhikers&#8217; series comes along. Grab your towel and put up your thumbs.

More and more hackers and hackresses leave their computers turned off  these days to turn their attention to a completely lo-tech pastime activity. They get their knitting baskets out filled will needle and yarn goodness and do the thing that might as well change the whole world. Some weave <a href="http://schreibmaschine.deramateur.de/?p=227">streetart</a>, others knit <a href="http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/2006/04/knit_tank.html">anti-war</a> protests and a few even start <a href="http://makezine.com/craft/">magazines</a> devoted to the next big thing. Those webs of yarn neither need electricity nor wi-fi – just commitment to the cause. Today products of knitted fabrics of wool seem to be just as pervasive as air. There is even apparel completely made of yarn. If you ask me this is what i would call grid, everywear, or ubiquitous technology. In the future we will overcome dull necessities like electricity, internet, or computers. We will all knit together a warmer, fuzzier and more interwoven web of wool. Leave all tech lingo behind you and start to use those open APIs available in every thriftstore.

	<p>If you are enthusiastic about information visualization and want to get a bit inspired, don&#8217;t look through all of the examples posted on <a href="http://www.visualcomplexity.com/vc/">visual complexity</a>. Otherweise you might as well feel a bit dizzy or disconnected. They have 315 projects categorized with screenshots, description and the link to the corresponding page. For me it was sufficient keeping the mouse on the next-link to keep me from working. The picture above is a rotated screenshot from the index page.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Now that i am enrolled in a advanced – i am still blushed –  Spanish course at the Goethe Institut in Santiago i can really kick of my studies in regard to the Spanish language. Even though the other three <em>estudiantes in el curso de español</em> seem to be some steps ahead i think it will be a good way to improve <em>mi español</em>.</p>
	<p>There are several ways one can prepare a stay in a country with a different language besides formal courses.  In my case i did tandem meetings with a Mexican girl in Magdeburg. For me this worked like a alarm clock for awakening my sleeping Spanish abilities  that i once acquired in school. The idea is that two persons meet on a regular basis talking both in mother languages and the new one to be acquired. In this way the process of learning and teaching a language is combined. I think i will do this here too. <em>Vamos a ver.</em></p>
	<p>Furthermore i also did employ – <em>claro</em> – web 2.0 technologies. In this case it was podcasting. If you are into computer and internet things this one is for you: <a href="http://latintechtalk.com/">Latin Tech Talk</a>. A podcast about information technology held in Spanish via Skype by several Latinos discussing the latest developments in the tech world. The good thing for beginners: technical terms often remain in English, so it is possible to  follow the course of the conversation vaguely even though you might not understand all words.</p>
	<p>In another podcast i learnt that reading a book still helps even if you almost understand nothing. You get accustomed to co-occurrence of words and the order in sentences. So much about my amateurish insights in learning a language.

	<p>Zufällig bin ich auf dieses groszartige Kunstprojekt gestoszen: <a href="http://www.zoomquilt.org/">Zoomquilt</a>. Die Idee ist kurz erzählt, aber doch so genial: Der Betrachter zoomt fortwährend in das Gemälde wie in einen Tunnel hinein, so dass der Eindruck entsteht, mensch würde sich in dem Bild vorwärts bewegen. Die verschiedenen Schritte wurden von 15 Künstlern umgesetzt, so dass ein vielfältiger Weg aufgespannt wurde, der sich unendlich fortsetzt, da es weder Ende noch Anfang gibt. Sehr cool. Es gibt eine längere Waldphase, die mich ein wenig an das Simulationsprojekt ‘Prinz rettet Prinzessin’ erinnert hat. Blosz dass die Pflanzen und Bäume im Wald von Zoomquilt gefährlicher und gefräsziger wirken. Wegweisendes Element ist der abstrakte, orangene Schlauch.</p>
	<p>Ich bin über den <a href="http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/">Mac OS X Bildschirmschoner</a> darauf gestolpert. Auf der Zoomquilt-Seite gibt es auch einen für Windows, darüberhinaus eine Flash- und HTML-Variante. Falls die Links nicht funktionieren, ist mensch angewiesen die Seite zu aktualisieren. Für Linux gibts bestimmt auch nen ‘Port’. Wenn nicht, ist der sicher schnell gehackt, oder Bubi?

After i got <a href="http://gobby.0x539.de/">Gobby</a> compiled and working some weeks ago, today <a href="http://cybernotic.org/">Bubi</a> and i played around with it and we were really thrilled how seamless it works. He had the unique IP-address to host the session and i just entered his IP, the port, my username and my text color. After that we wrote within the same document and could differentiate what is written by whom. Now we should be able to collaborately write protocols at the meetings of the local anti-war group.</p>
	<p>It works pretty much just like <a href="http://www.codingmonkeys.de/subethaedit/">SubEthaEdit</a>, yet it is available on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows, which makes it far more usable, of course. I have just sent the second eMail to the Codingmonkeys asking what their plans are in regard to Gobby. I would be really pleased if they would sit down together to make SubEthaEdit and Gobby talk to each other. The eMails remained unanswered, yet, i am sure this idea is well on their radar. While real-time, collaborative editing is still in the beginning, it will become big. But the more the developers are cooking their own soups, the less it will prosper.</p>
	<p>For the time being, Gobby seems to be the way to do it. On the Mac it is available via DarwinPorts. It will take some hours, but it is worth it.

It is the free and scaled down BBEdit that won&#8217;t replace SubEthaEdit on my side. It is actually quite ugly. Yet, it is AppleScriptable and now serves me as an integral part of the AppleScript droplet i will use from now on for massive replaces across many HTML files that happen to be encoded in Unicode. If you want to use it too, here it is: <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/files/fnr.zip">fnr.zip</a> (contains <em>find and replace.app</em>). It requires TextWrangler.

Susan Kare, a bitmap artist at Apple, had found a symbol for the key that is known today to many Macintosh users as the command or apple key. Originally though, this icon “was [and still is] used in Sweden to indicate an interesting feature or attraction in a campground.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Der Bubi hat mir geflüstert, dass auch der MDR mit neuen Distributionskanälen experimentiert. Aber es scheint, als ob <a href="http://www.mdr.de/podcast/">Podcasting beim MDR</a> schon aus der Experimentierphase heraus ist. Sechs Podcasts gibt es nun von den verschiedenen Radiosendern, u.a.:</p>
	<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.mdr.de/mdr-figaro/podcast/">MDR Figaro - Das Schöne lauert überall</a></li>
	<li><a href="http://www.mdr.de/mdr-info/podcast/">MDR Info - Hören, was passiert.</a></li>
</ul>

	<p>Wirklich schön ist auch die Gestaltung dieser Seiten, wie Bubi zu recht kommentiert. Hut ab. Gefällt mir gut. Im Vergleich zu den anderen Akteuren unter den öffentlich-rechtlichen Anstalten scheint das MDR mit seiner Webseite wirklich ein glückliches Händchen zu haben. Die Podcasting-Seiten von MDR Figaro und Info scheinen mir gar ein wenig Apple-esque, wenn ich das anmerken darf. Aber so ist vielleicht gerade der ästhetische Diskurs und da ist Apple wohl just am diskursmächtigsten.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I have just looked a bit into Wordpress’ podcast functionality and it seems pretty <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Podcasting">straightforward</a>. While this is all for fun, i will add posts with audio and/or video files attached to them on a irregular basis from now on. Don’t expect anything seriously entertaining or enlightening. It is just for my experimenting pleasure. I am testing it with <a href="http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts.html">iTunes 4.9</a>, yet it should work with any <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcatching">podcatcher</a>. The nice thing about iTunes is that you can also watch the movie files. So this is what you need to do, if you want to subscribe to the Anarchitect podcast:</p>
	<ul>
<li>copy the <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/feed/">feed link</a> to the podcatcher of your choice</li>
</ul>
	<ul>
<li>or, if you use iTunes, click <a href="pcast://www.anarchitect.org/log/feed/" title="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/feed/">this link</a></li>
</ul>
Your podcatching application is supposed to show only those posts that include enclosure tags and the corresponding files. Or at least this is the way i expect it to work. So, if you encounter any troubles or even positive experience, don’t hesitate to comment.
</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>As i met up yesterday with Kamran, we talked about photography and filming. Even though i have been taking photographs on a regular basis for six years now, i have not really seriously considered doing films or documentaries. Besides a few attempts such as the short movie <em><a href="http://www.pixellemabelle.de/">pixellemabelle #1</a></em> i don’t have experience in doing so. Yet, now that i have <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2005/07/31/so-long-farewell-and-thanks-for-all-the-pix/">a new digital camera</a> that is able to record small, lowquality videos i could actually experiment a bit. Why not doing some <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlog">vlogging</a>? This is my first attempt. It is a short nature film:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Since i got this mobile audio device which brand name made it into a major neologism of these days, i am also testing podcasts. I do think there are quite a lot good podcasts out there, yet i have focused on only two that i more or less follow along:</p>
	<p><a href="http://thewordnerds.libsyn.com/">The Word Nerds</a>: This is an awesome show produced weekly covering words, their etymology, modern usage, and social implications. Very good! They are three eloquent teachers in the U.S. covering English, Latin, German, and other subjects.</p>
	<p><a href="http://www.itconversations.com/">IT Conversations</a>: Most of the time this is actually not a ‘classical’ podcast, since it features many recordings of speeches at big tech conferences. But it has also interviews with people in the IT in general.</p>
	<p>You can download the shows within the browser or you can subscribe to them with a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcatching">podcatcher</a> application, such as <a href="http://www.apple.com/itunes/">iTunes</a>. Enjoy.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>On the follwing weekend there will be <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2005/08/03/democratic-education/">another</a> interesting conference: ‘<a href="http://wikimania.wikimedia.org/">Wikimania 2005</a>: The First International Wikimedia Conference.’ In Frankfurt, Germany, wikimedians from all over the world gather trying to figure out where their big thing and the related projects are heading. On Deutschlandfunk there was a small report (which unfortunately isn’t available online). It said that the conference is mainly going to touch three important issues: language, scaling, and the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web">semantic web</a>. Only the latter would already be reason enough to go to Frankfurt and listen to the talks, yet i will be off with Bubi to the Mediterranean coasts of Italy, France, and Spain. It seems that at least two talks of the semantic web series deserve closer attention. The first was a proposal for a semantic language that could be used within the Wikipedias: ‘<a href="http://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimania05/IM1" title="Wikimania05/IM1">WikiOnt: An Ontology for Describing and Exchanging Wiki Articles</a>.’ The other looks like a proposal for enhancing wikilinks with some information on the semantic relation between the linked articles: ‘<a href="http://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimania05/MK2" title="Wikimania05/MK2">Wikipedia and the Semantic Web – The Missing Links</a>’. While i haven’t read the articles — i still have to pack stuff for the trip — i am as <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2005/07/20/ontologies-vs-folksonomies/">noted before</a> very excited about taking the Wikipedias onto another, specifically: a semantic, level. I will print out those proposals and read them during the trip.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>As i have invested into a new (but used) digital camera for the upcoming summer trips the time has come to say thank you to my old beloved digicam: the Kodak DC 240. For almost six years she has filled the <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/galleries.php">galleries</a> and accompanied me on trips and stays in other countries and on another continent. I can remember that in the first months of our relationship — she with her flash and i with my photographical eagerness — have really strained the patience and tolerance of our contemporaries in Gregory and Dallas, South Dakota. As we got older a serenity in this regard has arrived and the average frequency of new private galleries slowly decreased from about 2 galleries per month to only about a half. Nevertheless, we continued taking pictures from cities and landscapes wherever our feet respectively the camera bag took us. Even though she was technically half-broken for the last 5 years, due to some rough mosh pitting in Stan’s mocha, i never considered giving up on her. Taking into account how old she is and what she’s been through she’s still in an awesome shape — she just grew comparatively large and clunky. The time for her has come to rest a little beneath the <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2005/07/23/my-newton%E2%80%99s-not-dead/">newton</a>, so that i can get back to her to get nostalgic once in a while&#8230; But before i do this, we must praise her good deeds: according to the ‘About’ panel she has captured 45724 pictures and fired 7481 flashes. Unbelievable. So long, farewell, and thanks for all the pix&#8230;</p>
	<p>The official handover ritual includes picturing each other:</p>
	<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/dc240.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/dc240.jpg','popup','width=600+20,height=450+20,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0');return false"><img src="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/dc240-tm.jpg" height="150" width="200" align="" border="0" hspace="10" vspace="5" alt="Dc240" title="Dc240" longdesc="" class=""/></a><a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/ixus400.jpg" onclick="window.open('http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/ixus400.jpg','popup','width=600+20,height=450+20,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0');return false"><img src="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/ixus400-tm.jpg" height="150" width="200" align="" border="0" hspace="10" vspace="5" alt="Ixus400" title="" longdesc="" /></a></p>
One good thing about the new camera, a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_Digital_IXUS">Canon Ixus</a> 400, is that this is a model which still had <a href="http://CompactFlash">CompactFlash</a> as the memory card type. Which means i&#8217;m still able to use my old cards. All the new Ixus models have slots for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure%20Digital%20card">SD cards</a>. But this was not the main reason for the purchase. The Ixus is smaller and takes far more better pictures, as i think. Here is a sample picture shot in Frankfurt am Main:</p>

Habe eben zufällig auf <a href="http://www.dradio.de/">dradio.de</a> einen Hinweis (siehe Bild) zu dessen <a href="http://www.dradio.de/aktuell/398578/">Podcast-Testbetrieb</a> gefunden, dessen einleitende Worte sehr überzeugend klingen:</p>
	<blockquote><p>Wer möchte nicht gerne von den Sendezeiten im Radio unabhängig sein? Ab sofort ist das möglich. Deutschlandfunk und Deutschlandradio Kultur gibt es jetzt zum Herunterladen und Mitnehmen für den MP3-Player. Während des Testbetriebs erwartet die Hörer eine rund halbstündige Spezialausgabe mit den Interviews vom Tage.</blockquote>
<span style="text-decoration:line-through;">Es bleibt aber leider erst einmal beim </span><span style="text-decoration:line-through;"><em>Wollen</em></span><span style="text-decoration:line-through;"> und nicht beim </span><span style="text-decoration:line-through;"><em>Können</em></span><span style="text-decoration:line-through;">, denn der Link, der da angegeben ist </span><a href="http://www.dradio.de/rss/podcast/interviews">www.dradio.de/rss/podcast/interviews</a><span style="text-decoration:line-through;">, ist ein Alias (oder eine Verknüpfung) zu dieser Adresse </span><a href="http://dradio.loopnet:8080/rss/podcast/interviews/">http://dradio.loopnet:8080/rss/podcast/interviews/</a><span style="text-decoration:line-through;"> Die erscheint mir und Browser &#38; Podcastclient aber irgendwie ungültig. Fügt mensch .de dazwischen, funzt es auch nicht&#8230; Naja, mal warten, bis es da was zum Testen gibt. Ich bin jedenfalls sehr gespannt.<br />
</span><br />
Eigentlich wollte ich nur gucken, ob sich das charmante Wort ‘<a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weltraumbahnhof">Weltallbahnhof</a>’, aus dem Radio auch auf dradio.de erwähnt ist. Dazu bin ich nun nicht mehr gekommen. Wikipedia jedenfalls aber kennt es und ich nun auch. Im Englischen würde es übrigens <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceport">Spaceport</a> heiszen. Raumhafen scheint wohl auch im Deutschen gängig zu sein. Wörter sind auch was für mich und nicht erst seitdem ich die <a href="http://thewordnerds.libsyn.com/">Word Nerds</a> unregelmäszig höre&#8230;</p>
	<p><strong>Nachtrag</strong><br />
Schneller Fehlschuss: beim obigen Link fehlt der Schrägstrich hintendran. So funktioniert der Testpodcast:</p>
	<p style="text-indent:20pt;"><a href="pcast://www.dradio.de/rss/podcast/interviews/">pcast://www.dradio.de/rss/podcast/interviews/</a></p>
Auf dass D-Radio&#38;-Funk die Verwendung von Podcasts ausweitet.

And surprisingly: it still works great. Handwriting recognition and backlight and Newton OS 2.0 &#8230; It takes 4 regular ‘walkman’ batteries to make it mobile. The big problem though is that there is no connection between my computer and the newton. It doesn’t do USB or anything even fancier such as Bluetooth. It has a serialport and infrared&#8230; Furthermore Apple has discontinued support and software development, e.g. for syncing it with contemporary pim-apps, such as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICal">iCal</a> and the Addressbook. So there is no ‘official’ way syncing it via osx with modern macs. But there are some third-party efforts underdone in keeping our newtons on the road and going. Once i have managed to create a physical connection between mac and newton syncing should work. Here is a list of sites devoted to the pda that had all but the support by Steve:</p>
	<ul>
<li><a href="http://newtsync.com/">newtsync.com</a>: syncing the newton with the mac</li>
	<li><a href="http://tools.unna.org/wikiwikinewt/">WikiWikiNewt</a>: the place for all things newton</li>
	<li><a href="http://newted.net/">Newted Community</a>: “bleeding green since 1999”</li>
</ul>
Rumors about a new pda by Apple regularly pop up since Apple stopped the newton. They’ve got everything to bring an ‘iPad’ out — if they just wanted it &#8230;

Now that i am a real user, my preferences are saved, even beyond a 30-days-period. But that wasn’t the key reason. I just like how well it just works. Right now there seems to be no real alternative.

Die lassen sich einfach über die Software-Aktualisierung laden. Ich habe Powerbook und Airport Express damit ausgestattet und bis jetzt funktioniert es bei mir ganz gut. Dieses Update hätte meinem Bruder und mir die <a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/2005/05/18/ein-tag-in-frankfurt-teil-1/">Sorgen</a> abgenommen, als ich bei ihm online gehen wollte.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Ich wollte eigentlich eben mein repariertes Fahrrad von der Werkstatt meiner Wahl abholen, allerdings war es leider noch nicht fertig. Das war aber gar nicht so schlimm. Ich bin ja nun seit letztem Geburtstag mit einem mobilen Audioabspielgerät ausgestattet, und fülle dieses auch regelmäszig mit so Podcasts, damit mir im ÖPNV Magdeburgs nicht so langweilig wird. Und weil ich sonst — bis auf die Fahrt zu meinen Eltern — wenig zum Pendeln komme, hat mich das gar nicht gestört. Ich musste aber eine bittere Erfahrung machen: die alten Bahnen der MVB sind nicht Podcast-kompatibel. Sie machen einfach einen ungehörigen Lärm, der das Audiosignal größtenteils überlagert. Zum Glück ist morgen mein Rad wieder fit, so dass nur der Fahrtwind für ein wohliges Hintergrundrauschen sorgt — und nicht quietschende Gleise.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>Nachdem die erste Tiger-kompatible Version von Ciscos VPNClient mit der Nummer 4.6.03.0160 ja nicht so stabil war und bei manchen Macnutzern auf dem Campus einigen Ärger verursachte, gibt es mittlerweile eine neue Version für Mac OS X mit der Nummer: 4.6.04.0061. Eine <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=cisco+4.6.04.0061&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8">Suche</a> hat auch einen <a href="ftp://ftp.rz.uni-saarland.de/pub/Local/VPN/vpnclient-darwin-4.6.04.0061-GUI-k9.dmg">Link</a> zur Verfügung gestellt, so dass die Querelen mit sonderbaren Hexafehlercodes undsoweiter hoffentlich bald der Vergangenheit angehören. Falls eine ältere Version noch vorhanden ist, empfiehlt sich noch ein rasches uninstall im Terminal:</p>
	<p style="text-indent:20pt;">sudo /usr/local/bin/vpn_uninstall</p>
Worauf dann die Eingabe des Adminpassworts folgt. Auf die Frage: „Are you certain that you wish to uninstall the Cisco VPN client?“ sollte mit ‘yes’ geantwortet werden und auf die Frage „Do you wish to remove all existing profiles and certificates?“ wäre ein ‘no’ sinnvoller.</p>
	<p><a href="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/vpn.png" onclick="window.open('http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/vpn.png','popup','width=536,height=275,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0');return false"><img src="http://www.anarchitect.org/log/wp-content/vpn-tm.jpg" height="100" width="194" border="0" hspace="4" vspace="4" alt="Vpn" style="float: right" class="alignright" /></a>Installation der bzw. Upgrade auf die neue Version gestaltet sich dann relativ einfach. Ohne Neustart ist der VPN Client schnell wieder einsatzbereit, aber diesmal eben hoffentlich wirklich. Bis jetzt verhält er sich auch ganz artig.</p>
	<p>Bald gibt es diese Version dann bestimmt auch beim <a href="http://www.uni-magdeburg.de/wlan/mac/download.php">URZ</a>.</p>
	<p><strong>Update</strong><br />
Das Problem, dass die Verbindung ab einer unbestimmten Zeit zusammenbricht, scheint weiterhin aufzutreten — wenn auch seltener. Über das Interface ist es dann sonderbarerweise nicht möglich, einfach wieder eine Verbindung herzustellen. Auch lässt sich der VPNClient nach Beenden nicht mehr starten. Um ihn dazu zu bewegen, muss via Terminal folgende Zeile eingegeben werden:</p>
	<p style="text-indent:20pt;">sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/CiscoVPN restart</p>
Damit wird der cvpnd, ein Helferprogrämmchen des VPNClients, neugestartet. Wegen ‘sudo’ ist auch wieder ein Adminpasswort von nöten. Danach funktioniert der VPNClient wieder ein Weilchen&#8230;</p>
	<p><strong>Update 2</strong><br />
Nick Buraglio hat <a href="http://buraglio.blogspot.com/2005/06/applescript-for-cisco-vpn-kext-reload.html">ein wenig AppleScript</a> eingesetzt, um dies zu automatisieren. Wenn der VPNClient mal wieder rumbockt, einfach das Script starten.
