Our newspaper had a reference to the 'John-Cage-Orgelprojekt'. Well, its gotta be art ... beginning of the performance on September 5th, 2001 - end of the performance 2639! What do you make out of that?? This is really strange to say the least ... the real performance is even scheduled from the year 1361 to 2639, the first few-hundert years were just scheduled as silence I guess... The location of the performance (church) looks very nice, I should visit it when I'm somewhere close. There is definitely enough time left!

Some minor work on the site you might notice. On the right you will see a link with the current weather conditions here in Germany (taken from my own weather station in the backyard), you can click this picture and will get some more statistical information.

In addition a badge with some pictures from my flickr site, everytime you refresh you should see some other pictures. There is also a link to my complete flickr entries.

Enjoy...

A colleague found this page, the source if you ever need help of all kind.

Don't forget to take a look at the 'customer review' section, and in the support section you will find what it takes to make a German happy.

It is hard to believe, but I got asked by a couple of people what happened to my blog. Well, here is the truth ...

I'm lazy!

Now you know it. But there is a little bit more to it then this, here is the longer answer...

I got fed up with the content publishing system (CityDesk) I was using for my blog. CityDesk is a good program for what it is designed (Content publishing), but it is not a blogging solution. Then I had the great idea to use a .NET solution to do the blogging, but before I could do that, I had to change my hosting side since my old host didn't support hosting of .NET. The transition to a new host proofed more difficult then I thought, mainly because my old host was just incompetent to get the domain transfer done.

Finally arriving at the new host I had problems using the site management software of the new provider. Beside being a rather unreliable host, the software had huge problems going through any proxy server, the complete session state was often just screwed up. Again a transition to a new provider (still painful slow, but by now I knew more about domain transfers then the hosts) - and finally I made it to the new host which as of now is working reasonable well. Honestly, this was a couple of month ago and I did not find the time (and was to lazy - I told you so in the beginning) to install the blogging software and get going.

Well, finally I couldn't take it anymore, I installed the latest version of DasBlog, avoided any site management tasks (UI etc.) and just got it going ...

Let's see where this is going to take us ...
