Still Looking for a Christmas Gift for Young Girls?
December 7th, 2010
For quite some time now I have been involved in a cool project: www.always-icecream.com That is an educational and fun website for girls only. They can play a lot of learning games, watch educational videos and communicate with their (real-world) friends. Because it requires a low monthly fee, the whole site is completely ad free! I think, it makes a great Christmas gift for young girls.

It has already been about a month since I returned from San Francisco. Among a lot of other I things I did there (I hope to upload some photos soon) I visited a concert by Jimmy Eat World in The Warfield Theatre. Although it is already a bit late I would like to write some words about it.
Xpost and QtHeaders Update
August 20th, 2010
Yesterday I released a new Xpost version. But already today I am releasing another one, which also includes one new feature beneath bug fixes. The plugin contains now another small plugin which can be activated in the target blogs. It adds a widget displaying whether a post was crossposted. However this will only work with new posts. Old ones will show up as “not crossposted”.
Moreover, I updated my QtHeaders plugin for Eclipse to the recent Qt version 4.6.3. The plugin is like Xpost hosted at gitorious.org, now.
Xpost with Community Server support
August 19th, 2010
Finally, I managed to release a new Xpost version. Besides some small changes this version includes now the possibility to crosspost also to Community Server blogs. Special thanks to Daniel Cohen who implemented this feature! Moreover the source code is now hosted at gitorious.org.

I just released a new Xpost version which hopefully fixes a bug with crosspost missing their scheduled date. But I’m not sure whether this now works in all cases, because I was never able to reproduce the problem in the first place.

As I already wrote I gained a lot of knew experiences the last days during the IK. Especially with regard to making the decision for a Master program. During all the thoughts about what I want to do later I came to an insight that I have not seen in any advising text.

Play, Act and Learn and Eating, Fun and much more
March 20th, 2010
The last week was very exciting and I don’t really know where to begin. I was at the Interdisciplinary College (IK), a spring school with courses from the areas of Artificial Intelligence, Neuro Biology, Psychology, Cognitive Sciences and some other. This year’s focus theme was “Play, Act and Learn”. The event was placed in the Heinrich-Lübke-Haus in Günne at Lake Möhne.
