Cheesy Musings

fonero.be launches in Belgium

I just heard today that a new ISP is launching in Belgium along the lines as Fondoo.net, it is Fonero.be and they will be selling fon friendly ADSL connections to Foneros in Belgium. Best of luck with the new venture, or even, ik wens je veel geluk toe!

Happy Birthday Fon!

Fon is a year old, which is quite old in internet time. They are celebrating by offering free Foneras to the USA, Canada and the UK so if you are in the UK and don’t have a Fonera yet then get on down to the Fon shop and order one for the princely sum of £0.00

Lotusphere 2007

I have just come back from an enormous conference in Orlando, Florida. It was the IBM Lotus Lotusphere conference, the third one I have been to and for the first time I was a speaker! The conference was attended by about 7,000 people, yes you heard correctly, a full 7 kilogeeks. I was presenting session BP204 Integrating Lotus Notes and OpenOffice.org we filled the room, I don’t know the numbers yet, but it looked like a couple of hundred people to me. There was a big free wireless cloud for all the attendees, it was creaking a bit, but that isn’t surprising given the vast numbers of people using it, many of whom were checking out the virtual Second Life conference that was running in parallel with the real thing.

Baked Camembert - very yummy

I had a rather ripe whole Camembert in the fridge so I decided I would try to cook it. I found this recipe for baked camembert on the fooddownunder.com site, basically the recipe is to bung it in the oven at 190C for 20 minutes. It worked perfectly and was exceptionally tasty. The only fault I could find with the recipe is that they claim it will serve 10-12 :-)
