My very own WordPress :-)

By on 4-Sep-2011 in Alexander-2011

So, having hit fifth grade and having been nagging to Dad about it for the past six months, I guess it was about time. Starting today, I will try to get my hands dirty with my very own WordPress site: HoBo101.wordpress.com. I’ll play with uploading pictures, adding posts, and what not. Dad also showed me how to add new entries via my SmartPhone, which was kind of cool. Of course, now I actually have to write stuff there too :-)

Enter Smartphone, the HTC Wildfire

By on 26-Mar-2011 in Alexander-2011

After having been introduced to the world of mobile phones some time go, Dad decided it was time I got down to playing with a so-called “Smartphone”.

So today I will ditch my good old SonyEricsson T650i for a HTC Wildfire, sporting the Android operating system. Granted, my “new” phone isn’t the state-of-the-art, but it’s close enough for my needs. Dad also got me a near-unlimited surf-plan after having spent 30 minutes on the phone with Tele2 (I’m sure glad I don’t have to answer his calls at some customer service desk).

One neat thing is that I can now sync my calendar (and e-mail, etc) with my Work2Go (collab) account. This means that Mom and Dad can add things to my calendar that I need to remember :-)

What Filip will say remains to be seen .. I’m pretty much convinced that he’ll scream his lungs out. But hey, I didn’t have a neato-whizz-bang mobile phone when I was his age either!

My first e-mail

By on 11-Aug-2010 in Alexander-2010

Today I wrote my first e-mail, with my very own e-mail account! Dad has begun showing me the ropes of what he calls a new world (for me). It will be an exciting fall no doubt (not just because of e-mail of course). It was very interesting, but quite a few new things to learn.

Dad also showed me some keyboard shortcuts that made navigating the web a lot faster .. we also talked a bit about programming. There are a lot of strange words that I’m not entirely sure of yet, but I’m sure it’ll all come to me in due time.

We ended our training session by a Wikipedia lookup of “lactose” and “lactose intolerance“; something we had pledged to do since we were talking about it at the breakfast table this morning. I’m not lactose intolerant, but we were discussing “sugar” in foods.
