Being lead by mixed emotions

For a long time already, Marjoleins grandpa is having trouble with his health. He has been in and out of hospitals quite a few times over the past years. On multiple occasions we visited him and expected this to be his last hospital visit. And every time, the man again was able to get out of the hospital and live his life.

Small book markets can be so much fun

Every few months, there is a small local book market here in Woudenberg. Last saturday, another market was held. As every other time, I was there to have a good look at the books available.

Elections

Elections in The Netherlands is always very interesting. With a majority of the votes having been counted, I guess conclusions can now be made. Even though the christian democrats lost votes, they still got the most votes. Their partner parties however lost a lot of votes and we will not see them back in the government.

The Ultimate Goals

Having just switched jobs (and especially the period before switching) has given me quite some moments of thinking about my future, and my career. What are my goals for my professional life?

Protecting forums against spammers

Spam is a big problem, and everyone knows it. Not just the spam you get in your e-mail, these days spammers also write bots to find discussion forums and post their spam there. There will soon be a solution for the latter problem.

Netlabels and reviews

For quite a while now, I've been running the Electronic Music World magazine. I've just launched a new subsite.

Rebooted!

Yes, the site is rebooted. Slighty later than planned, but you can't have it all.
