So, within MySQL it’s not ‘allowed’ to release or name anything prefixed with ‘My’ (but MySQL of course). An example is MyODBC doesn’t exists anymore, it’s Connector/ODBC. But you see lots of successful MyThis and MyThats. MySQL.com (duh) MySpace.com MyVideo.de MyWunderwelt.prosieben.de Bah, anyway, there are lots of them of course. What’s ‘yours’ on the net?

After a week freezing in Finland I went south to Portugal for 5 days vacation. I’m still not used to relax.. It turned out to be again an exhausting week getting up at 06:30 and getting to bed around 22:00. Sitting was taboo! Sintra to the most western point of European mainland, over the Vasco da Gama Bridge through Pamela to Cabo Espichel. I must says that Sintra, and all that is to see there is definitely worth it!

Aaah, Finland, at last! After a nice flight and a very nice conversation on the plane with somebody from the The Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission, I finally got the opportunity to freeze this winter! Snow! Don’t go out without something on your head or gloves! Tomorrow I’ll go explore a bit more before heading to Tampere, my final destination for this trip. Funny enough, it was cheaper to travel two days with staying night at hotel.

I finally got a picture and the recipe online which I use to make brownies. These dark, brown calorie-bombs are so tasty.. As I’m writing this, I’m baking some at my parents home. My sister helped me a bit making sure she didn’t melt away with the smell. Well, she got to wait some more half an hour! The recipe has been stolen from the BBC website. The brownies pictured are from late January 2007.

I’m starting to get into Django more and more, forgetting PHP. And some nice stuff is coming up. Yesterday there was a post about a Django Cheat Sheet published by folks at Mercurytide. Still work in progress, but all tools are welcome for a ‘starting’ project. And then there is the Django Book. It’s getting quite heavy already in pages and you can leave comments to make it even better!
