Just a small note that I've made some improvements to my SocialLinker-gem lately and while I've been using it on a few sites already, I wasn't using it on my very own blog. Today I found some time to change exactly that: you've got to eat your own dog food. If you want to have a taste of it: murb/social_linker (if you're a ruby-dev) or just click the share icons below :)

I got asked: “So what do you think?” Here’s my opinion after 1.5 days of working with it.
I never used the dashboard, spaces etc. But now its easy. Not an upgraded function key to press, or some key combo, but a nice gesture: a three finger slide to the left, a three finger slide to the right… yeah. Just have a peek at the right most widgets of the dashboard, and release, defaulting to where you were. I like. Switching between Windows in a VM is now also a lot easier: my VM (VirtualBox) disables Cmd+Tab when you enter the VM, as most other key combinations, but the three finger swipe still works.
It doesn’t work yet for all apps, but its easy to get addicted to I guess: close a text editor and no dialogs anymore asking me whether I wanted to save what i just typed. Actually, this was the primary reason I downloaded the upgrade. I’ve lost too much work during the years. Sadly, it is somet…
Short update: I defended my thesis successfully, just have to await my diploma before I can call myself officially Master of Science in Human-Technology Interaction (or something along these lines) ;)I'm about to defend my thesis, if you are in the neighbourhood, you are welcome to visit it.Titel: The Influence of the Auditory Environment on the Emotional Perception of Speech Location: Eindhoven University of Technology, IPO building, room 1.18 Date: 16 May Start: 14:00 Supervisors: Armin Kohlrausch (TU/e & Philips Research), Harm Belt (Philips Research), Dik Hermes (TU/e) It is generally assumed that speech conveys information about how a person feels (see for an overview Scherer, 2003). Most communication, however, does not take place in isolation, in general there is context available as well. That context can play a role in the perception of emotion has been demonstrated before, e.g. by presenting expressive anchor faces next to a target face (Russel …
I started this blog with a simple plan in mind: every now and then I have been coming up with an idea that seems to be interesting enough to think about a bit more. Such ideas, I thought, should be worth sharing…… and now I discover that most of my quick writeups aren't that good anyhow… or at best dated. I committed myself to posting only something that is good enough to post (and of course long delays between posts may force myself to lower this 'quality standard' (you're reading a good example)). So work is in progress, but I've got other things to do (planned date of graduation is getting close… quite close :o ) Just subscribe to the feed. That's what feeds are for :)
