Functionality I want in the iphone/ipod

Podcasts

I am a hardcore podcast listener and you know that I am sometimes also write some more or less interesting blog entries. I would love the capability to quote sections of certain podcasts to comment on them or to use them as a sources for some statements. But this is a real pain at the moment. You have to write down what the time was of the comment, import the podcast in garageband or any other audio editor at hand, make new file out of it, tag it, upload it and integrate it in you blog post. That means you will not do it, never, ever.

So what I want is a possibility to just jump back a couple of seconds, set a start marker, wait to the end of the quote press again to set an end marker, get the waveform displayed so that i can adjust the waveform by pinching it into the boundaries, than get a text field/Headline field write my short blog entry and than upload it directly from there or if I don’t have a proper connection, let iTunes upload it to my blog while syncing.

Is that asked to much?

ESTC 2008.1

I am in Greenwich, London at the moment at the ESTC2008 (Electronics and System-Integration Technology conference). And I am going to enjoy three day of electrical engineering geekery at it’s finest.
I am starting now with a session on “Electronics Integration for Healthcare: Materials and Processes”by James Lee.
The first talk is on “Versatile low cost wafer-level packaging enabled by powderblasting“.

The adventure begins

Holy Crap,

Bathroom quickfix - but it was meant to stay for ten month

After ten month I was able to convince our landlord/letting agency to fix our bath. It was just possible by using financial force (refused to pay the full rent). Well, tomorrow the plumber will start to take the tiles from the wall. The schedule says that the works will be finished on Friday. That’s never gonna work.

Wish me luck

Virgin Media is not an option anymore

Yeah,
This is exactly what we need, another ISP co-operating with the content mafia. This is the problem that they are looking in our traffic. Why are we still taking this, we would not let the royal mail look in our letters, would we? Stand up and sue this people in Luxembourg City.
