Opportunities?

While I was listening several times in the last weeks to the PSB track "Opportunities" (Yes, I also found some old tapes containing their first albums) I started thinking about the lyrics. Then I read some interesting chapters from Cryptonomicon containing some inspiring ideas on creating business which made me think even more. More and more (btw, a title of another track I found) I come to the conclusion that there are many opportunities out there which you only have to pick up... 7:52:12 PM

W-JAX 2003 in Munic
Tomorrow I'm going to Munic to spread the open source spirit a little more. At the W-JAX 2003 in Munic I'm giving a full day Cocoon Power-Workshop together with Matthew, a session about Avalon and a session about the new Cocoon Portal. This will be an interesting place to meet people, talk with them and perhaps drink one or two beers with them in the evening :) 7:47:22 PM

The good old times

While preparing a birthday present for a friend (I hope she's not reading this) I have to pick up the best songs from the last thirty years. This takes some time as you have to go through your (old) CDs and tapes and find the correct songs. (For those wondering what 'tapes' are: this is an analog medium that was used frequently through the 80ths to record songs). Anyway it's really fun. When you're doing such things you notice more and more that the music was much better ten, twenty or event thirty years ago - at least that's my opinion. Today, you something have a real hard time to call something you hear "music". Currently I'm listening to the Berlin concert from BJH and simply enjoy such great tracks like "Mockingbird" or "Child of the universe". Sigh. 7:45:12 PM
