Hotel Life
I’m sitting in my hotel room in Amsterdam in Mercure Arthur Frommer and watch a bit CSI, no it’s actually Navy CIS or so – I like CSI more. I think it’s kinda cool TV series. Although I have to admit that the new series seems a bit boring. I don’t think it’s because of the FX, they are certainly still very cool. Maybe it’s just overdone now, with all CSI Miamy and CSI New York. But than again, that could be just a too simple answer.
Well anyway I still want to get the connection between Twitter and Growl on my Mac going. This’ funny, its a bit like in the old Linux days when you tried to get that damn Soundblaster going just to listen to some beeps and greeks from X. It was never really because you needed to have sound on your computer. Thats not what computers where used for at that time – at least not intel Boxes, where Linux originated from.
It took me well over a week to first get the Soundblaster thing going. Mostly because there was no Internet and no Google! I had to phone people and personally talk to them – got the phone number from some guy from the Bielefeld PBX,
Today all you do is merely ask google!
But still, some things have to be tried out the hard way, and twitter-growl, at least on my Mac, themes to be this.
