Miscellaneous technobabble from a Swede in Norway.
This is an archived copy of the blog that was once located at My Opera. Since I don't like the idea of content going away, I decided to archive the blog here after My Opera was shut down in March 2014. The original formatting is gone, but the important part, the content, is still here.
Please note that the blog is old and that links might no longer work.
This page lists the posts sorted by tag. To find the posts sorted by date, please refer to the main index.
The successor to this blog can be found at A Swedish wolf in Norway 2.0.
