Yay, it’s a long weekend due to a holiday on Monday and the sun is shining! And I finally found the time to sort out the appartment’s budget with my flatmate. And I saw “Bob Ross and the joy of painting”. This is a very, very good day!

One of the greatest minds of our time died this week – but his work (especially the famous Mandelbrot set) will live on. This great zoom video shows how beautiful and amazing (and mind-twisting, too) maths can be.
Kudos to Christian for showing me this video 🙂

I’m attending the WebTech 2010 in Mainz – it’s a hybrid conference together with the international PHP conference taking place in the nice Rheingoldhalle right next to the Rhein river. Oh my… So many geeks in one place! And almost no women here! (and those few that are here… well, you know…)
Anyways, I’m looking forward to another two and a half days of interesting talks and new insights to technology and the software industry in general.
PS: I did not forget about the pics of my appartment, it’s just that I couldn’t find the time by now… (and, to be honest, not so much progress has been made since my last post on that topic…)

As some of you might know, I installed the WPTouch plugin to make the site easier to read on mobile phones. While this is awesome enough to praise it, it now has a very cool feature that allows people to send me free live messages to my phone directly from my site 😎 So if you happen to be reading this from a mobile phone, you can click on the “Message” button at the top to get to a form for sending me instant messages:
