WP-HeadlineAnimator
Changes regarding PHP and WordPress rendered the configuration of the plugin unusable. This and the switching to qTranslate instead of Polyglot made me do a new version. If you need Polyglot Support in the plugin again, please leave a note here.
The current Version of WP-HeadlineAnimator is now 1.5 which is available on wordpress.org

Live and let live
Looking at the IT world, there are many systems to work with and many arguments against them. It’s amazing, but it’s common that users flame each other. Linux guys pick on Windows users, Windows users hit apple. In the end, everybody flames everybody. Fun?
But let’s face it: Every system got its advantages and disadvantages. You can just choose what to struggle with and rant about either Linus, Bill or Steve. Remember – nobody’s perfect.

Mac-Tip
Screenshots are cool for technical support tasks as they are useful for analyzing error messages. I noticed that Apple users usually send quite many screenshots (as I get them quite often).
After a while a friend told me how it works. To capture the whole screen, press:
cmd + shift + 3
If you just need a small area of the screen, use:
cmd + shift + 4
The pictures finally gets saved to your desktop.

A MacBook
I have to admit, I didn’t really look at Macintosh. Well – disregarding the apples in the store of course. But since quite some time, I am having to deal with those systems. So I got one.

A portable friend on the road
Looking at the current mobile phones, it seems like those little companions would like to be a notebook replacement. But to be honest, something’s missing – and that’s a full keyboard – a keyboard that allows you to type as used to.
