SubscribeDa noen jeg kjente plutselig fikk behov for å reinstallere Windows, og jeg tilfeldigvis måtte installere XP på Annikens gamle maskin, fant jeg ut at jeg kunne skrive ned en liten oppskrift.

Mine “må ha”-ting for iPhone
Enkelt og greit en liste over mine "må ha"-ting for iPhone, slik at nye iPhone eiere har et utgangspunkt. :) Dette er ekstra nødvendig siden App store er klin umulig å bla seg fram i på egen hånd (alle kategorien er uhåndterlig store, og filtermulighetene glimrer med sitt fravær).

Fartsparadokset
Apple har ved flere anledninger understreket at de fokuserer optimalisering på det som synes for brukeren. Av og til bare for å få ting til å virke kjappere, ettersom det er det brukere til syvende og sist merker. Et godt eksempel på det motsatte er Windows Vistas filkopiering.
I nettleserverden er det (dessverre) blitt veldig vanlig [...]
Min status
Mange bruker Twitter selv om jeg selv aldri helt har sett poenget i det. For hva skal jeg med nok et sted å sette statusen min? Jeg har problemer nok som det er med status i MSN, Skype og Facebook. Det vil si, helt til jeg kom over Mood Blast fra Circle Six Design, et [...]
Mac OS X tips
A couple of things got me stumped when migrating to Mac, so I thought I’d just do a small post on them. :)
The essential Mac OS X freeware list
It’s now official – I’m a Mac user. After flirting with Ubuntu Linux for a year, watching Knut Sætre (my coworker) use his MacBook Pro and reading all the switch stories around the net I decided time had come for a change. So far, I’m definitely not regretting anything. OS X seems to me like [...]
Reorganizing my life… again
During the last couple of months, GMail has had several hiccups. And when Google homepage suddenly lost all my gadgets for two days recently, I figured I might look into the desktop application approach to organizing my life again. I’ve also experienced that having “tools” in the same browser that contains tabs with social networks [...]
Yet another Firefox extension list
When I first got a customized Firefox install demonstrated to me I was immediately awestruck by the functionality offered by extensions. Sure, Firefox isn’t the fastest nor the most standard-compliant browser around, but the extensions really got me hooked (thanks, HHJ)! So I did the conversion after having used Opera for 5-6 years. And now, [...]
Folder Size – find where the diskspace went
I’ve tried several programs to help diagnose diskspace usage. All of them were stand-alone apps that scanned a specied folder and it’s subfolders, giving you various views over disk usage (folder trees, piecharts and in some cases weird block-diagrams). But today I stumbled upon Folder Size, a superb solution. What it basically does is add [...]
Remove Windows Genuine Advantage Notification
After Microsoft pushed the Windows Genuine Advantage Notification (hereafter refered to as WGAN) tool out using Windows Update a lot of people cried out in despair. While I actually sympathize with Microsoft for trying to protect their intellectual property, there were several things that didn’t quite sound right:
Microsoft originally assured the press that the tool [...]
