Linux wallpapers (handpicked? Yes. Handpicked)

Tue, 01 Sep 2015 00:00:00 +0000

I definitely like a good wallpaper and I know a good one when I see it, but never judge a book by its cover.

Who doesn’t like a bag of goodies?

Op de oude site stond hier een galerij met 8 wallpapers.

You can now read what I read, when I read it or later if you want to read it

Tue, 01 Sep 2015 00:00:00 +0000

I added a new page here and it’s not about cats. I now have a button in my browser that allows me to drop internet pages I read or have read and that you might want to read or already read.

The power of 301 – moved permanently

Sun, 10 May 2015 00:00:00 +0000

When using a web-browser to visit a website your browser uses HTTP headers to request information from a server by using http REQUEST headers.

Upon REQUEST a server responds to the request with a http RESPONSE.

The definition of HTTP header fields is: HTTP header fields are components of the header section of request and response messages in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). They define the operating parameters of an HTTP transaction. This basically means that a browser requests information from a server (Request headers) and gets a response upon that request (Response headers).

MindJet MindManager for project planning and more

Mon, 26 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

For project planning, documentation and work breakdown purposes I started using MindManager from MindJet back in 2009. I really like it’s overall features and the connection to Office software. When starting a project I always start with a general layout of the main topics and project highlevel goals or milestones that need to be achieved in order to complete the project and it’s documentation. The software allows me to add all project topics and elements in a structured manner and it’s easy to add or modify things within the project map.

Markdown HTML tool for writers

Wed, 21 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

If you are familiar with formatting HTML pages and articles and sometimes have the feeling a general notepad editor just doesn’t meet your formatting needs, Markdown might be for you. Markdown is a markup language with plain text formatting syntax designed so that it can be converted to HTML and many other formats using a tool by the same name, it is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). The goal for Markdown’s formatting syntax is to be as readable as possible. A Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it’s been marked up with tags or formatting instructions. In short, you can create beautiful HTML documents without knowing any HTML because of the simplified syntax (I know. Little contradicting statement there, but just use it and you’re on you way to be an HTML master in no time). For example the Markdown syntax allows you to do thing like:

From our Linux department

Tue, 13 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

I know that Linux is around for quite some time now. I tried it in the past, multiple times. But the issue is that you intrinsically prefer to stick to what you know and it used to look like not much you’ve wanted to touch for miles. That’s changed recently with pretty great looking alternatives to Windows (and not only XP). This is how I got one of my systems rigged up (pretty basic).

Alternative Cloud solution that you manage yourself: ownCloud

Sun, 11 Jan 2015 00:00:00 +0000

I am using cloud file storage services for quite some time now, they are pretty convenient to have your files on the go, share them and collaborate using them. I am using Dropbox since 2008 already, look:

Op de oude site stond hier een afbeelding van de introductiemail van Dropbox: “Welcome to the Cloud”.

How to give a technical training to create a website without creating FTP accounts…

Tue, 25 Nov 2014 00:00:00 +0000

FTP servers to use during multiple training sessions can be a pain in the ass to manage. Creating users, provide them the right credentials by CHMOD them. Assign website root folders to them and what not. Especially in a recurring training for different people this can be quite a hassle… But a solution is near…

Learning online with Moodle

Sat, 01 Nov 2014 00:00:00 +0000

ON-LINE OR ONLINE?

Op de oude site stond hier een citaat over de spelling online/on-line. Bron: grammarist.com.

Online it is. Rightfully as well. Let’s continue…

You can learn all kinds of stuff in your own pace and on your skill level. The fact that there are a lot of sites and tools available through the wonders of the World Wide Web (why web addresses need the // in the URL also leaves me in the dark) definitely helps as well. God dammit I already start to sound a bit (lol) like some nerd already before we even got started. Oh well, you’ll just have to deal with i and it will be better. ok? You with me? I will attempt to remove any clutter from the things I write and get to the point as soon as possible if possible. Starting from.. Now. In my professional life I create on-line learning portals and programs myself.
