I’m not a frequent user of CoverFlow, but now that I wanted to use it on my shared iTunes library in my living room from the Windows iTunes client I noticed that I cannot select neither CoverFlow nor in an album list. I’m stunned and looking forward to trying it out on my MBP

While Googling I found Pentaho, an open source BI suite that uses the same stack that I used for my last job: MySQL/JBoss/Tomcat/Eclipse. Great seeing there are more out there, and if you’re starting up with BI and prefer OSS, check them out!

These instructions are a great 5 minute guide to using iTunes at work. My mini at home already has SSH access enabled, so fire up Putty, make a tunnel, install the helper app and Boom! You’ve got music at work

This is just the weirdest. Not three minutes ago my Norwegian mobile phone that I haven’t had turned on since christmas suddenly turned itself on, and just a second thereafter my smoke alarm went bananas. I can smell no smoke, no smoke outside, no smoke in the entrance, not anywhere. What’s going on? Normally I would just assume it malfunctioned, but my mobile phone turned itself on! It shouldn’t be able to do that??
