volleyball

I'm now attending the training of PSvBG Salzburg team that plays in Austria's National volleyball league. Maybe when when I'm grown-up :) I will also play in the team, for the meantime I attend the training as often as I can, try to improve myself and play in team #2. Keep your fingers crossed, maybe in a year or two...

I made my first transaction on eBay and bought a lomo action sampler. This cameara makes 4in1 pictures like the one on the picture (it's not my picture, I have to take, develop & scan them first) Looking forward to cool pics

OE3 on FM4

Was driving in a taxi this weekend and the driver was listening to the Austrian radio station OE3 (they play music from robbie williams, tina turner, scissor sisters, boys & girls bands.. ). The weird thing though was that it was stored on on this radio on FM4 (=the 4th channel on this radio, unfortunately the quality of the picture is very bad). FYI: FM4 is the "alternative" radio station in Austria (they play placebo, beck, billy talent, scissor sisters (aha -some overlap, interesting:)). Alternative means that the music and image is the alternative to OE3. You can guess which station I'm listening to :)

paper submitted

after months of work Wolfgang, Christoph and I submitted a paper to next year's CHI conference in San Jose, CA. It's 0.30 am so we're finished in any possible sense and look forward to a good pint of beer (or two :)

football is great

Football Fans,

Sorry to all my Volleyball colleagues, I have to admit that watching football (even though the level in Austria is very low) is a great activity. Christoph and I watched Red Bulls Salzburg vs. SK Sturm Graz last Sunday. Christoph kept his fingers crossed for Salzburg while I did the same for Sturm. Well Sturm lost, but that was no big surprise. The nice thing is, that you can enjoy a game even in a half-drunk condition(as an excuse for this picture ;-)
