Should’nt be that complicated 😉
Airtunes in existing WLAN
Did I ever tell you how much I love Apple? It’s not only the design, but the simplicity…
We live in a maisonette having my old iBook with an external HD as music server on the upper level: our goal was to bring the music down to the kitchen. That for we bought an Airport Express (with the possibility to plug active speakers in) – though the guys at Gravis told me, Airport Express is not able to integrate itself into an existing WLAN. Well, guys: it’s that simple:
1) connect to your Airport Express through a cable
2) start the airport admin (not the assistant)
3) choose „connect with existing network“

4) enter name of your network (if it’s a hidden SSID just type the correct name in the field
5) Click on „security“ and enter the right passphrase
6) Click on the „music“ tab and give your airtunes a nice name: „kitchen“
7)
Click on the „internet“ tab – the airport express shoukld have gotten an IP in case you’ve DHCP enabled in your WLAN. In case of static IP simply put in a right adress from the right adress-pool
8) Safe everything back to your Airport Express – and wait for a restart. Unplug your cable to the AE. A green LED means it’s connected correctly to the WLAN.
9) chose the destination in iTunes, where your music shall go to – it’s even possible to enter more than one output (Kitchen, Computer, bathroom,…)

P.s.: We bought the JBL spot’s: marveless design and hell, what a brilliant sound. In my opinion better than the soundsticks from h&k

Based on Skype this is a real cool app for sharing your desktop over the web: yugma. Ideally used for presentations etc, with no need for an own server. The host needs Sykpe installed, the clients just needs a webbrowser with JAVA installed. On a windows system some (unsupported) drivers had to be installed, which worked seemlessly. cool….
OSX: Export Adressbook to csv
Just a reminder: use addressbooktocsvexporter
Let’s have a look at china

Fanta4 Gewinnspiel

Es geht wohl immer mehr in die Richtung bei Marketing Verantwortlichen, die Kunden in das Geschehen mit einzubeziehen. So auch hier, beim neuen Fanta4 Gewinnspiel auf Vodafonelive, wo man 44 tsd Euro und natürlich div. Handys gewinnen kann, wenn man möglichst fantasiereich den neuen Clip für den fanta4 Song „ich is ich is ich is ich“ dreht. Da wahrscheinlich der Clip hinterher auch wirklich als Musikvideo ausgestrahlt wird, sind natürlich 44 Tsd. Eur jetzt nicht der Oberhammer – aber auch ein nicht zu verkennender Obolus für den Gewinner. Bin sehr gespannt, wie da die Mitmachquote sein wird. (Disclaimer: Vodafone is zwar unser Kunde, und der o.g. Clip wird auch bei uns gehosted, aber ich will dafür gar keine Werbung machen. Ich find die Aktion nur spannend…)
In the hospital….
…seems that this is the end of my career as a football pro: I am in the st. vinzenz hospital in cologne since last wednesday, with a defect hip – too much sports during the last years, running and football is a no go, as in the word „no go“, in the future. But I’m really fascinated by the process of getting into hospital, being served with everything one needs. This is such a complicated process of dozens of different parties working together, that I’m really astonished that everything works (from calling 112 until you lie in bed with all hoses running into your arms, everyone knows exactly what his job is…) So, let’s see how stuff works out, maybe the time for a new golf-pro has come…;)
