Hey was looking for a google notebook replacement and somehow ended up here ... cant seem to find the exit.
But enough about that, I spend most my time working with javascript + web stuff and thinking about the big issues and life.
Normally I wouldnt find time to write this, would be working on some new feature. But I quit my job not so long ago. And now got some time to spare until my notice periode is running out, so I can start my new job in Paris.

iGoogle Theme Creator
And how does this appear
via Google Operating System on 1/21/09
One week ago, Google Blog announced an official tool for building themes for iGoogle. "Now, you too can capture memories and images on your iGoogle homepage by building a custom theme. We've just released our new tool for creating iGoogle themes. It's an easy way for iGoogle users to spruce up their personalized homepage without needing to know how to use XML, etc. All you need is an image, and we'll provide the rest."The idea is great as people will always like to see a personal photo on their homepage. As usually, iGoogle managed to make another mistake: the theme creator page has been down until today.
Now that it's finally available, you can see the tool is very basic and it only lets you upload an image, choose a header text color and a theme color. It's very difficult to crop a photo so that a certain region is visible, the color palette doesn't include too many options, you can't find the themes you've created to apply them to other pages and you need to accept a license agreement after creating a new theme.

New blog post from google reader

Web radio service Pandora has announced plans to start playing short audio ads, now and then between songs. The ads were first introduced on Pandora's Twitter feed. The company pledged to be "prudent" and "respectful" in delivering the commercial interruptions to the personalized listening service. In press interviews today, Pandora founder Tim Westergren made clear this may be the only way the company can afford its now-higher royalties, while avoiding layoffs or even a possible shutdown. Yesterday, the company's Twitter feed read, "So you know, we did not take on audio ads lightly. We try to be extremely respectful of your listening experience, & p romise to be prudent [sic]." This isn't the first time that Pandora has resorted to audio ads, though. A couple of years ago, the company ran a series of campaigns which included a 9-second spot for McDonald's restaurants.Comments [0]
