well, if you’re interested, one of the tandem movies can be downloaded here . i have to issue a warning, the file is about 9mb in size and if you got a weak stomach, then you might get ill :-) further infos: the timeline of the movie is absolutely unedited, we drove down the frickweg with the speed you see on the movie (btw. B. and Hermann , i could not show your house, because i had to concentrate on the sharp turn at the end of the badgasse , sorry) and had exactly those two and something minutes to drive down. the annoying noise is the wind blowing in the microphone of my cam . remember it’s supposed to take pictures, the movie-ability is just a nifty feature… and yeah, gimme a break, i know the sound is not edited very thorough, but as i said before , it’s my first try with imovie.

do you remember the movies i made last friday ? i’ve been fooling around with ’em in imovie and must say that this app is quite straight-forward (as soon as you figure out how to import the sound from non-standard-mpegs which my camera produces). i know there are much fancier products which are also free , but with imovie i was able to make a nice little movie with soundtrack, a little transition and stuff like that in a matter of some dozen minutes without even thinking about reading the manual.

für einmal auf Deutsch :-) Wer genauso wie ich Abe Hebeisens wochentliche Kolummne im Bund liebt, wird sich freuen, dass es auf Bernerkultur.ch ein Archiv aller bisher erschienenen Kolummnen gibt. und dort gibts auch gute Kulturtips, das werde ich heute machen.
and here in english . i just love the translation of Hebeisen into elevation iron :-)

this is why the new nokia n-gage gameconsolemobilephonetacoshell is never gonna be a hit!
update: it might not be obvious, but nokias designers do not read books on industrial design . this means, that the user has to hold the n-gage sideways to make a phone-call with it. how daft is that?
update: see what gizmodo has to say to bad industrial design :-) (actually not really about the n-gage, but about the new nokia 7700 which is sidetalking-enabled, too…)

taking a look at the referers
to habi.gna.ch
i found that when you search for habi
on google
, then you get quite relevant hits:
ps: and if you take a close look on the referers, then you see some interesting keywords that list my page really high: “fleisch werbekampagne ”, “streetparade 03 ”, “Grosstierklinik+Bern+Tierspital ”
ps: and searching for siegfried and roy on search.ch ranks me quite high. b. (CTO @ search.ch), i think you have to tweak your algorithm a bit :-)

well, i just can’t help posting some more:
the back seat driver made some pictures and even some movies.
i’ll try to reencode them into a more web-friendly format (the longest one is about 60mb, exactly 3 minutes, which is just too big) using imovie
and then post them here.
they’re all quite funky to watch, because you feel like being on the bike actually.

well, if you google this , then you get this :-) i guess, expansys should have a better quality-control… and yes, i’m an avid fan of ricardo.ch . i guess i bought about half of my digital equipment there. including my ibook, my ipod, my palm (old, but works like a charm), my web-cam (which arrived today, but i wasn’t home, so i can go and pick it up tomorrow), my telly, my telephone(s) and numerous other stuff…
