Being in New Zealand does strange things to a person. Everybody who knows me, knows I don’t much like that crazy invention called a Book. However, being here I’ve already finished 4 books, all of which I can highly recommend.
Next up: Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software, by the Gang of Four. Yes, talk about classics and shame on me for not having ordered it sooner! Also reading Implementation Patterns, by Kent Beck at the moment.
It’s been a while since my last blog post. Things have been quite hectic for me these last few weeks. There was my final week at Angry Bytes, followed by a pre-NZ party and then my trip to New Zealand. Currently New Zealand looks pretty much the same as the Netherlands, seeing as I’m locked away in an office most of my time.

Well, this was bound to happen: I got tagged by Pádraic because I’m working on Zend_Feed_Reader with him. Luckily I’ve just setup this new blog, so here we go!
Did you know that…
- Every bit of PHP I know is self-taught
- My programming adventure started out with Visual Basic 3 back in 1993. I was just 8 years old back then and had no clue what I was doing.
- My left foot is actually a few millimeter bigger than my right foot.
- I used to have long hair (almost reached my ass). I cut it off in the summer of ’08 for various reasons, one of which was 100 euro.
- I bought my Harley Davidson before I even had my drivers license.
- My whisky collection (only single malts
) keeps growing instead of shrinking
- While I use a Mac, with an Apple Cinema Display and an Apple keyboard… I have an HTC Touch with Windows Mobile and I’m stuck with it for at least a few more months.
Now it’s my turn to start tagging!
As for the rules:
- Link your original tagger(s), and list these rules on your blog.
- Share seven facts about yourself in the post – some random, some wierd.
- Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs.
- Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs and/or Twitter.
Yay! Another new blog setup. This time I will actually write stuff… I promise! Back to WordPress again, seeing as naneau was too lazy to finish Madoqua.
