J'ai commandé un plafonnier ce soir - 2 semaines pour la livraison. Et j'ai reçue une lettre de mon assurances maladie , j'y comprend pas grand chose.
Ca y est il y a une chaine en français sur Joost, il s'agit de TV5 Monde.
Hier soir je me suis rendu à Scheveningen - pour prendre des photographies du concours de feux d'artifices. J'ai pris beaucoup de photos, pour peut de résultat.
Yesterday I attended the Wireless Community Camp 2007 organized by http://www.wifisoft.org, Held in Oegstgeest the Netherlands. I attended because I was curious on what two of my colleagues where up to - while they did some infrastructure work in June. The Camp Lasted one week, but I only attended Saturday. So I arrived late and came in the middle of a presentation of FON.
Fon is a project aimed at sharing your bandwith with others over a WIFI network. The benefit you get by doing so is that you can use all other FON hotspot around the world for free. If you are not a member of fon you can become a member for a small fee. The idea is to broadcast two networks from the same Wifi Access point, one is going to be the FON network, the other one which is open (but supposed to be protected by the first one), is your personal network.
I was temped to join but as I live on the 6th floor people in the street would probably not benefit from my FON access point. Then I discovered that I would probably need a La Fonera device, a small access point. While the device looks nice and cool I have two issues with it. I usually like to be able to plug cables in my routers not just Wifi ones, and on that thing I just can't. It heats to much. But nevertheless the project seems interesting and I was able to spot two Fonspots, one in the apartment building I live in den Haag, the other one near my parents.
There is also a bunch of software being develop to turn your mac or your PC into a FON access point, the Mac version does not on PowerPC :-(.
Then the camp headed two the center of Leiden to take a boat tour. The idea was to detect as many WIFI signal as possible. The boat trip was fun and I discovered parts of Leiden I did not know. I did not participate to the detection contest.But while we where cruising the canal that split the central market in two, the guy looking for discoverable Bluethooth device food 300 of those !! Then we went back to the camp to get a nice barbecue. I really enjoyed my day and will probably spend more time to WCC next year.
Je suis passé chez Ikea histoire de commander un canapé, dans 6 semaines le transporteur me confirmer la date de livraison :-(
Je vais faire une pendaison de crémaillère sans canapé.
Bon j'ai quand même acheté deux peaux de mouton.
Aujourd'hui mes quelques 500 photos mises en ligne sur flickr on atteint les 10,000 impressions. Ca fait plaisir et c'est bizarre à la fois.
