The Sims play SimCity

Amongst the myriad of extension packs that have been released for The Sims, this fan-made one ought to be the funniest one: The Sims play SimCity. It is now possible to keep your Sims amused by instead of working or taking care of the children, by playing SimCity within the Sims. It's kind of like having the Sims be a "metagame", just for playing another game... Cool!

One week of holidays left

And that's all. I was only allowed to take 2 weeks of holidays (even though I had been working for almost 9 months now in the same company) and now there is only one left. I'm back to my home town where I will meet some of my friends and try to have some fun and not suffer too much because of the heat here (compared to Finland, this is unbearable)In the meantime, I'll also be working on the next version of pLog and as a result, I have updated the version used here to the latest development snapshot that includes amongst others, a working search feature (thanks Mark for getting it working
), and some performance improvements. It is going to rock
Web Interface for Microsoft Messenger
25/12/2004 19:29 | Categories: News, Geeky | 0 Comments
Probably many of you already knew about it but Microsoft is beta testing a version of MSN that can be accessed via web. In my case it is the only solution to use MSN from my office (why on Earth would I want to do that??) because everything is here heavily firewalled and protected... but you know, it's good to have Web Messenger
There are other similar tools out there but this one is coming from Microsoft so it should work better. Surprisingly, it even works fine with Mozilla!! (need to try with Safari, though)
