wahlau's online hut

even though this might be a little late (at home it is already afternoon :) ), but after reading the post from Susan, i think i wish to also take this chance to tell all the visitors something about Easter...

this weekend we are visiting our friend in frankfurt. we have decided to travel light - in other words, no heavy stuffs, no non-sense and no notebook. but i would not want to be totally disconnected, so naturally i need my gadgets around. therefore the n800 has been called into duty again.

this time i do it slightly different. i tried the thumb keyboard since i find typing using the stylus rather slow. so far it does the job pretty fine, surprisingly! it is not 100% like using the normal keyboard but it is also not as bad as i thought. perhaps it is just a matter of getting used to.

since lack of updates, perhaps it is time to announce what kept us busy :)

how do you feel when you are still up at 4am in the morning, working on things you never feel will finish nor end, just because you cannot sleep 4 hours ago?

Well the chips/biscuits do taste pretty nice, so that is a plus :) else, i am hoping to retire earlier today from work - did manage to review another chapter of writing for my student, while did some reading and now figuring out what to do next.

perhaps should go back to bed ;) 

It was the St. Nicholas day here in Germany yesterday. It is a traditinoal day where children will get their gifts or sweets (put in their boots), and some believe that St. Nicholas is the traditional Santa Claus. Even adults will buy simple small gifts to give to each other to share joy and love. In the university canteen we usually get special menu - for example, yesterday i had one of the best roast duck ever in the university. they should do this more often. LOL :)

after being complained by andi, i've decided to write something. i do think no blog as a sign of being busy and occupied, though i do not know what others might perceive ;)

while reading through some usual feeds, i noticed the blog from Seth very true:

saw this in my mailbox today: a mail from Jaiku, an activity stream and presence sharing service, working on web and mobile phones, is now part of Google. For more information read here. i have tried their services since months ago, and find their software neat and nice. You will be able to update your location and other information while you are on the move. If you coupled your phone with it, you can even help the system to almost precisely note down you current coordinate.
