Happy new year 2011!
Friday, December 31st, 2010Today is the last day of 2010 and I’m looking back to the last 12 months. phpMyFAQ saw about 14 releases including the major 2.6.0 release back in mid january. Since then we improved the whole code base of phpMyFAQ and we’re working hard on the 2.7 release which should see an alpha release the next weeks. I work on organizing a party for the 10th birthday of phpMyFAQ in february, too. Let’s start with the second decade of phpMyAQ! 
Comparison of knowledge base management software

Airport Extreme rocks!
Tuesday, April 28th, 2009Today I visited the Apple Store in Munich and bought an Airport Extreme kit. At home I connected the base station with power and plugged the audio cable into my A/D receiver… then I went to my iMac and started the Airtunes configuration… this took about a minute and I activated the WPA2 encryption. After another minute for a restart of the Airport Express I could listen to my MP3s in my living room. Very cool and it really works like charm!
