Music section on kerusan.org
29 Thursday March 2007 Filed in: Personal
I have updated my site kerusan.org with a little
music section. I will
there publish my own songs that I create and
talk a little about my view on music and
related areas.
Update: I just updated it again with another tune.

I have a dream
13 Tuesday March 2007 Filed in: Apple
Since a long time ago I have been having a dream
to operate/own a Mac with 64000 processors. I
cant see any solutions to many problems without
one. I now only hope that I will see this in my
lifetime. Mac Pro had 1 processor at first then
2, now it has 4, and the latest rumors says that 8 is
not far away, well after that comes 16, 32,
64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192,
16384, 32768, and then 65536. That counts to
approximately 13 update to Mac Pro. If Apple
releases 1 major upgrade to Mac Pro every
1,5 years (I guess that processors in
computers follows Moore's law) then it could
be true in 20+ years. I may be able to see
that if I have health and luck. I think I'll
have to start now to build those apps I was
thinking about.
What about storage
07 Wednesday March 2007 Filed in: Apple
Since Steve started to talk about "the digital
hub" all media files has been centered around
iTunes. iTunes keeps, plays, organize, syncs more
and more types of media like music, pod-casts,
video, films, photos and games. Ok it is
wonderful to know that I have only one place/app
to look/learn to manage it all. But since my main
computer is an MacBook Pro all the storage I have
to put all this is on is the internal hard-drive
that keeps 92.84 GB. That is not much if you have
put in your music-library some pod-casts and your
photos, don't even think about movies. So what is
the strategy. Even Steve must have more
media-files than that.
iTunes is becoming more and more complex, soon we don't need to use Finder we can do all things in iTunes. Kidding. But is it only me that lack some strategy to save things. I have long waited for some extra slot on my MacBook Pro to put in another hard-drive but I have not found any that fits into the pc-express slot. So what to do? Anybody have solved this?
All I can think of is to store all my media on a fileserver, but I don't think iTunes like that. And if it had done that it would surely been a loot more like Finder. Hey Apple please think on something before you release Leopard.
Update:
It doesn't seems like I'm the only guy in town with this problem.. Her is an article from MacSlash named 'Managing iTunes Movies Apart From Music?'.

Home again
03 Saturday March 2007 Filed in: Travel
It took us 49 hours to get home from NZ. It
shouldn't but our plane to Sweden from London was
defunct so they had to fly another one from
Stockholm to take us home, and that took about 5
hours more than planed. The trip was wonderful. -
NOT - Just kidding. Trying to sleep sitting up is
not my thing and I hate long flights, so I'm not
going to bore you with details. Just wanna tell
you that we are home now safe and sound.
Our house was a bit cold though, I had turned down the heat so we have to sleep with hot water Coca Cola bottles in our beds the this night. I hope that the jet-lag wont keep us awake too much tonight.

Last day
01 Thursday March 2007 Filed in: Travel
Last
whole day in NZ. Sad and wistful. Today
we went
down to Christchurch city
center
to do some shopping and enjoy the lovely
weather. Going down to Cathedral-square we
where having a tremendous day. As I said
earlier NZ people (and the tourists ofcouse)
where also having a nice late summer day with
no stress like they seems to be spared from.
We looked at jugglers, street
chess, listened
to Los
Incas playing the
street, went up in the church
tower, ate some falafel
and some lovely ice-cream made from fresh
frozen berries and enjoyed.
We met a Swedish girl that had lived and married in NZ, now working on a Christchurch newspaper as photographer. She confirmed our feelings about NZ and did not seemed any longing for leaving this country.
Maybe I sound overly positive about this country because our holiday is soon ending. But even if I take off half of my admire for this country I still find myself over the level I have ever felt about a country, its culture and pace. We have only met 2 frustrated people in 18 days, and we have met so many people loving what they do and having time with each-other and strangers. It is not only the landscape that is breathtaking it is also its people.
