Today, we’ve decommissioned one of the hardest-working members of our organization. After more than four years of connecting us to the internet, and protecting us from all the treats of the modern day internet, we’ve shut off our ISA server, and replace it with a more compact solution. I’ve got particularly fond memories of the […]

Next month, I’ll be saying goodbye to Joomlareporter, the 2nd oldest project I’ve ever started (since I started to keep track of them, that is). The reason is simple: I lack both the time and motivation to write articles about Joomla for two blogs. Blogs which, by their very nature, are competing with each other

When you’re reading this post, you’re reading the first post on this blog that was written from WordPress.com.

I was doing some project administration last week, when I realized something funny (which other people called “alarming” when I pointed it out). For the first time in five years, no personal sites of mine run on Joomla. The only exception are two test sites, which I use for Joomla & More articles. That is

It’s been a while since I last posted here, hasn’t it? Not that my life has been entirely uneventful; it’s just not always worth blogging about. There’s been a wedding (my brother got married, woohoo for him!), I changed my diet and adapted a fitness regime (go me!) and I’ve had some other fun experiences.

Most of the time, when I start a blog post with a question it’s because I think I know the answer. But not this time. Today I asked myself that question again, after seeing some people share their presentations online. Sharing is nice, of course. But when you share your presentation online, there’s one big

The economy is a funny thing. I should buy locally, to support the local economy. Yet the same rules of economics make me shop for technology elsewhere. Because the price is right abroad, especially when buying video games. With the arrival of the Xbox One the local (web)shops have increased the price of a single
Change is inevitable, because the only thing which never changes is events in the past. So I, Too am making changes, long overdue adjustments. For a better future and a better now. Maybe I’ll someday share what those changes are when and if the desired results gave been set in stone, instead of wishfull thinking.
