Was mich wirklich ärgert: Berufskraftfahrer die während der Fahrt telefonieren.

Wenn man schon (theoretische) 40h die Woche hinter’m Steuer sitzt sollte man sich doch eine Freisprecheinrichtung leisten anstatt den 30 Tonner 1-händig durch die Gegend zu kurven.

Sowas wird nur noch getoppt von (Schul-)Busfahrern die während der Fahrt telefonieren.

PS: wär‘ das jetzt ein Twitter-würdiger Beitrag gewesen?

Quiz: does anybody know the origin of this poster? I found it months ago somewhere and don’t remember where & how. It makes fun out of the „xxxx for dummies“ series of books and the fact that a dove is reading it.

Those who know me 🙂 are aware that http://woecki-hausbau.blogspot.com keeps me from frequently posting to this blog.
I find it amazing how well my ancient Palm Treo 680 performs as a productivity machine! I’m following the IPhone / Android / Palm Pre hype, but i still have no real reason to upgrade! Palm OS still does everything i need to manage daily life (which got more complicated because of … see above):
– „Calendar“ helps me to keep track of appointment, dates, schedules (i’m using Datebook3)
– „Todo“ tracks all those little things that are required to make our dream(house) become reality. I’m following some GettingThingsDone principles, but not too tight.
– „Contacts“ grew a alot during the last months: nearly every plumber, electrician, … in the area is in now 🙂
– „Memo“ and „Voice Memo“ allow me to make notes instantly, even when there’s no time/space to write, critical for not loosing thoughts.
– the really outdated „Camera“ still allows me to make snapshots for documentary purposes
– everything syncs fine to my Win XP PC for archiving or further processing
The only thing i’m missing is sketching – but i doubt that iPhone/Android/PalmPre rock in that are.
Comments welcome.

Blogger, LinkedIn, Xing, Facebook, Twitter – can someone pls. tell me where this all leads? As a always curious person i try out everything, but only few of these services offer real benefit. ok, some ppl. tell me i should just stay away if i don’t love it, but i’d like to understand …

My biggest problem is always the amount of data i’m willing to submit: my virtual, internet-based „social network“ is too varying (so is my real-life-network too).
I don’t share the same amount of details with all of them. With some of them i stay more on the surface, but i’m sharing deep(er) thoughts with some of them. So i’m uncomfortable submitting very personal stmts because they can and will be read by ex-workmates etc. which i only track loosely. And only submitting silly messages would give me the feeling i’m painting a silly picture of myself.

For me, the internet fails in that area.

Any comments?

I’m following http://www.getrichslowly.org/ for a pretty long time and i already thought several times about sharing this with my readers, but http://www.getrichslowly.org/blog/2009/01/27/almost-one-million-a-case-of-shameless-self-promotion/ made it happen :-).
GRS, as it’s called in „the community“ is a brilliant blog about personal finance where nearly every single posting is worth reading (as long as you’re interested in the topic).

The only blog i know about that’s nearly as great is TSD – http://www.thesimpledollar.com/.

It might happen, that personal-finance-posts show up on my blog too in the future, but i’m in doubt that i can write anything that hasn’t been already been covered by theese two blogs.

Shameless self-promotion: on http://flohmarkt.woecki.org/ i sell used stuff (mainly electronics & agricultural equipment(!).

Hi,

Proud to announce http://flohmarkt.woecki.org – my personal, virtual flee market.

I’m aware that i won’t be able to beat Ebay, but this site is mainly intended to act as a central point for putting detail information and photos online. The items listed might/will also appear on Ebay or e.g. http://www.landwirt.com/kleinanzeigen (recommendations for other opportunities highly welcome!).

At the beginning i will list electronic gadgets and farming equipment (!) as these are my areas of interest ;-).
