zk.bloglines.addFix.user.js
Since I'm not the only one having a small problem with the subscription form of bloglines using Opera 8.5 I've started playing around with various elements of this form to find the element which is messing with Opera's rendering engine. After a few days I've finally found the problem and fixed it using following UserJavaScript:

Yahoo! launching a podcast service: A short comment ;)
While I think it's good that podcasting becomes more and more mainstream and Yahoo! trying to get into every market available out there, sometimes I still wonder, what ideas some companies have. First of all: It seems like you have to be a registered Yahoo! user when you want to download a podcast. I wouldn't see any problem with this, if the podcasts would belong to Yahoo! and wouldn't just be redirects to the original files like it's for example the case with the "The HotSpot" podcasts by Gamespot. They even display the link to the original file when you want to listen to that file, but clicking redirects you to a nice login form, not on Gamespot but on Yahoo!.

SSX On Tour demo for the PS2
Today I had the chance to get my hands on a demo version of SSX On Tour and Need For Speed: Most Wanted for the Playstation 2 and while I've currently quite a lot of work and a lot of problem with my PC hardware I still got around giving it at least SSX a try :)

Sony still treating European gamers like 3rd class citizens
According to this article on boomtown European gamers will have to wait until 2006 for version 2.5 of the PSP firmware. Not that it's all that critical for me to get this update but it's IMO still quite annoying. First we had to wait for many months to get the European version of the PSP and now also the software updates are delayed. I think it would at least be nice to get a plausible reason for the delays :(

First 2 days in Amsterdam
After having quite a stresful day on Sunday getting to Amsterdam monday in fact was quite relaxing. I toured a little bit through the town noticing that the city got a little bit smaller since my last visit ;) Since there was only one event in the evening I just went into the Krasnapolsky hotel where the con is held to get my package and then walk a little bit around. I also took the opportunity to do a little bit reconnaissance to find a fast way to get to Rembrandtplein in the afternoon to meet with Stefan. Well, 10 minutes to get there from the con-hotel IMO isn't really bad ;)

EuroOSCON over ... I'm late :(
First of all: Sorry, but I wasn't able to post my comments about the last 2 days of the EuroOSCON as promised in my previous post, but I was all the time on the hunt for some handkerchief replacement since I had none left anymore and the air condition nearly killed me :-?

New items in Bloglines broken?
Is it just me or is bloglines more or less broken currently? In the overview listing in the left frame there are tons of updates weblogs but most of the times when I actually want to see these new items, there are none. I already tried playing around with the "Display items within last ... " option but without any success :(
