Reopen

I have had this blog closed for the public since i was running on old Wordpress software. I had some weird things popping up on the blog and i figured that until i have time to dig in-depth into what has really happened I should just close it so things don’t get messed up by people that do not have better things to do.

I just upgraded to the latest and grates, and man is there a difference. I love the new dashboard and everything. I can truly recommend upgrading if you are thinking about it.

Massive amount of unpublished posts

Just realized that i have 22 unpublished posts. I have to go through them to see what posts are feasible to keep and publish and which ones to delete. Why do i do stuff like that? I should publish right away..

Speaker at MySQL UC 2009

I together with Anders Karlsson at MySQL/Sun will be speaking about MySQL HA. The title of the talk is MySQL HA, Pros, cons and real world experiences.

We will do a walkthrough of technologies that can be used, pros, cons, common pitfalls and how we solved it at bwin games ab (company i work at).

I will post more information about this later. Just wanted to share my excitement.

MySQL UC 2008

I visited MySQL UC 2008 in Santa Clara. It was as usual fun and I met a lot of interesting people. There were 2 other guys from my company attending (Urban and Rickard). My old boss Per did also attend. All in all it was a fun trip. There was a presentation that really stood out of the whole mass, and it was Dick Hardt with his presentation about identity 2.0. This guys presentation technique is really something different. I have tried to find a recording of it online but have been unsuccessful. If i find it later i will add it to this post.

The whole California visit was not only work. I managed to squeeze in a week of vacation to it. Traveled around NoCal, did some shopping and met some friends.

Edit, i found a recording of Dick Hardts presentation:http://blip.tv/file/981411

MySQL UC 2007, Santa Clara – CA

so, i am going to attend the MySQL UC 2007 in Santa Clara, CA – USA next week. I am actually traveling tomorrow so i can get rid of the worst jet-lag til’ the conference starts the 23:rd of april.

Will try to keep something here updated on the way…

Time to hit this baby off.

Plans just dont turn out as you want them to sometimes.. Originally i wanted to use this setup of wordpress to just share stuff.. Well, as time is not your best friend at all times, I have not written many sentences here..

Almost 6 months from when i put it up i have what, 2 posts now?

Things at work are going well, and i am planning a vacation this summer with my girlfriend to actually go to visit some family that i apparently have in Kraków/Poland.

I will also try to renovate the kitchen at the same time. Before we leave off for vacation i will remove everything from the kitchen, and demolish some walls and remove some wardrobes in the hallway.. then i will have a painter spackel and paint the walls and the roof.. I will put new spotlights in the hallway and the kitchen, so a new roof has to be installed..

well, i’ll get back with some more information when i know what i will do completely..

Ongame becomes bwin

The company i started to work for a while back (Ongame) changed it’s name to bwin.. Ongame was bought up by betandwin not long ago (like 6 months or something) and now the whole group is changing their name to bwin.

You can read more about bwin AG at http://www.bwin.org and you can play at http://www.bwin.com

For those who does not know what bwin/betandwin does, they are the biggest online sportsbetting, casino and poker company in Europe. The Swedish branch (where i work) is the division who develops, maintains and operates the poker platform (old ongame e-solutions ab). Our office is located in the center of Stockholm, in the main central station building.

Same company, new name, same work new work.. :S

New job; Ongame E-solutions AB

So i begun my new job at Ongame e-solutions AB today.

My position changed a bit until it was time for me to actually begin (from the time i signed the contract) so i was a little surprised when i got to work.

So, i enter the office, and there is kaos all over. Terrible incident had raged the night…

I was not much of help this day.. I just got there and felt confused because i had no computer no nothing.. just sitting there looking like a goof..

Hello?

Just setup this blog software to se if it is something i could use for what i want to save here.. And it seems pretty neat..

What i want to save/post is just general stuff about life and some pictures for family to recap on what they have missed.. Some information about me and maybe a bit of my hobbies..

We’ll se if i stick to it or if i do something else..
