Hallo mal wieder,

ich bin gerade über etwas interessantes gestolpert (und werde hier ein bisschen zitieren, ich hoffe das ist in Ordnung und erlaubt) – Im Artikel “Der E-Postbrief: Post Scriptum” auf http://gutjahr.biz/blog/2010/07/post-scriptum/ zeigt der Author einen Brief der Post, in welchem es mir um folgende Auszug geht:

Happy Sysadmin Day to all the various sysadmins around in the world :-)

Sometimes i’m searching some old pages i’ve found, for example things about CSS3, etc. Then i remembered Sven was using some webservice for that, which is storing his bookmarks – After googleing a bit i decided to give google-bookmarks a try :) I don’t understand why there’s always “by Anonymous” but well, it seems to work fine, here’s the list:

While browsing through the web, i saw a lot people asking how to make a 100% height and 100% width layout with floating div’s. Some people answered “it’s not possible” – Hehe. Yes, just because “one guy” doesn’t know how to do something, it’s impossible. Sometimes i’d wish such people wouldn’t answer such questions at all :) However, back to topic: The Solution is quite easy. Take a look at the following page, and also keep a look at the sourcecode of it, i tried to format it well and easy to understand.

Example

I tested it in Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 8. Might be that it won’t run in every browser correctly. But thats a usual problem – By the way, in IE you might have a scrollbar cause of the height. There’s a fix for it but i don’t remember that one. That was setting a negative margin to the height or something. A shame that i forgot it. However, hopefully this snippet is helpful to someone :)

I think i wrote a few times how someone could do this, once in German, once in English and i never finished writing this Article because one could fill a book by just explaining and doing this. However, let’s try again, maybe I’m making this one public.

I really really really love asian movies, so usually if they’re on TV, i record them. Recently there was a Movie which i somehow liked, sometimes a bit weird but overall i liked it, and the music in it is quite cool. I wanted to know from whom that music is so that i could get that.

Michael, a clanmate and friend told me that i could use an iPhone and Shazam to detect this song. So i exported some music from the movie, and let him try with his glory iPhone and shazam. The first result was something with japanese letters. The next one was “goodbyes by unknown” – However, the original title, it didn’t detect. Michael gave up with the comment “Well, probably too unknown” – Before this mess i told him “i bet this won’t work” – I won :)

However, i let him try three different songs, which are more known: Rise Against, Dancing for Rain || Pennywise, is anyone listening || Within Temptation, Our solemn Hour.

Shazam was able to detect all three. So this seems to be a quite good app for known songs which are in their database.

By the way, the song’s here: out of the movie “Professional, Story of a Killer” original title “One last dance” or the Song title “Broken Orange”.

I just updated my blog a bit, removed not needed plugins, updated out-of-date plugins, installed a new plugin (which is by the way awesome, “Now Reading Reloaded” which was originally written by Rob Miller – This “reloaded” variant was written/rewritten by Ben Gunnink. I modified the templates a lot to fit into this blog, however i guess it was worth the work. I came to the idea of this plugin by just visiting Till’s Blog who’s using this “library” for some time – And i always wanted to have something like that to write about the books i’m reading.

I also switched back from my green layout (which i still like) to this lighty layout – I really really like this one, the only disadvantage is, if you show a lot of code like i, there’s not enough place. You got only like 330 px width for your code.. Anyhow. I also played a bit around with the Amazon Partner Net Widget’s and added the mp3 widget to my blog. Pity that it’s just a preview of 30 seconds, however it’s looking nice :)

Sehr interessantes Buch, wenn auch nicht das, was ich normalerweise lesen würde. Mir gefiel das Cover und ich fand die Beschreibung bei Amazon recht interessant, also dachte ich mir warum nicht, fuer 5,20 (gebraucht, wie neu) inkl. Versandkosten war das ja nun auch nich so teuer. Das Buch hat definitiv meine Kaufempfehlung und ich finde es schade, das es nur noch als “Restexemplar” zu haben ist – Allerdings kaufen es sich vielleicht gerade deswegen noch ein paar Menschen so wie ich – Es ist das Geld wert :-)

Wir haben im Deutsch Unterricht an der Abendrealschule, welche ich besuche, das Buch “Daniel Halber Mensch” des Authoren David Chotjewitz gelesen. Normalerweise würde ich mir solche Bücher nie kaufen, weil ich sowas eigentlich nur ungern lese – Aber ich wurde eigentlich eher positiv überascht nachdem ich das Buch durchgelesen hatte – So schlimm wie gedacht, war es gar nicht. Meine Klausur zu dem Buch wurde übrigens mit der Gesamtnote 2 bewertet (Aufgabe war es, zu zwei Kapiteln eine Zusammenfassung (jeweils) zu schreiben, einen inneren Monolog zu verfassen und eine Charakterisierung Daniels zu schreiben, dabei habe ich die ersten 3 Aufgaben wohl sehr gut gelöst und die Charakterisierung total verhauen – Ich finde Charakterisierungen auch sehr schwer, wenn man Charaktere nicht wirklich interessant findet und sich daher nur schwer in diese hineinversetzen kann. Ich glaube es war aber eher weil ich das nicht klar strukturiert hatte)

Wie auch immer, nun zum Buch:
