Nothing really new for the genre and definitely nothing new for SSX, but still solid.

Yesterday I got myself a little extra Xmas present with "Ninja Gaiden Black" and "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within". Actually I wanted to get the original Ninja Gaiden for Xbox right when it was released last year, but various reviews mentioned how hard it is, so I skipped it for now. Then the Black-edition was mentioned during the GOTY award show on Gamespot.com so I decided to get it esp. since they said, it would be easier than the original title.

Guess what just came back online again: WordPress.org with the download for WordPress 2.0 At least: It was there just a second ago. Anyway: Congratulations to the whole team

Since it's Xmas-time and I finally also have some days of rest before the whole work/university stress starts in the new year. Before going to the University my primary web activity was visiting games bulletin boards reading the latest gossip no serious website or print magazine would dare publishing. It was actually quite entertaining back then, so since I'm currently quite into games once again I also use my free time now to visit some of these boards and some new ones.

With the release of WordPress 2.0 being imminent (at least that's how it looks like to me ) I started to check all the plugins I'm using here a few days ago to make sure, that they all work with the new major release. After 2 days now I have only one plugin left: Eric Meyer's wp-gatekeeper, which I should have finished soon. So far only Jerome's keywords plugin required some debugging and updating (which took me quite some time though). Now I just hope, that WordPress 2.0 will be released soon Just too bad, that the RTE doesn't work with Safari

I just want to congratulate everyone involved with the development of Liferea for daring to take the big 1.0 step I've been using Liferea for the last year more or less exclusively (perhaps with a small sidetrip to Rojo or Bloglines) and it it's really still the only real option for me when it comes to RSS/Atom-reading on Linux.

First of all: Merry Christmas everyone

Pfu, also der Tag fängt ja gut an. Kaum wache ich auf, schon sehe ich diese Meldung auf futurezone wonach UPC Inode aufgekauft hat. Würde mich ja ansich nicht stören, wenn es dann bei Chello in absehbarer Zeit solche netten Sache wie die Night-Flatrate gäbe, aber irgendwie vermute ich eher, dass UPC die Angebote von Inode einstampfen und sich nur am Knowhow in Sachen Internet-Telephonie und TV bedienen wird. Schade drum, und schon ist ߖsterreich um eine ISP-Alternative ärmer.

No, I won't really go down the road of comparing these two organisational ideas in general since other people with more knownledge in this area have probably done this already to the degree where it's no longer funny. Instead I simply won't to write a little bit of my own experience with blogging using Tags instead of Categories.

Take this as some kind of part one of probably a small series of posts about this whole topic since I just started to master the first few obstacles involved here.
