Today, I read an entry on heise where was anounced that up to now you can tag your photos on flickr with geodata!

Pretty cool I thought and run as fast as I could to my flickr-account ;-)

The first thing to do was reading the latest blog entries on the flickr blog - and I was flashed!

Apple has determined [...] certain lithium-ion batteries pose a safety risk that may result in overheating under rare circumstances [...]. (https://support.apple.com/ibook_powerbook/batteryexchange/index.html)

Yesterday I checked my Battery serial number of Leyla (my iBook G4) and - DAMN - the number is in the range!

So HEY APPLE - I’m ready for the exchange process!

UPDATE
I followed the instructions at https://support.apple.com/ibook_powerbook/batteryexchange.

Today me and Sylvio visited Games Convention 2006 in Leipzig, Germany.
We’ve seen some interesting things (e.g. Screencast of PS3, Call of Duty 3 for XBox360) and played a lot of games.

In short - it was very exciting and we’re looking forward to be there next year.

Today I will introduce you two upcoming features of the new release of streber.
Versions in streber

In the upcoming release we can proudly present a Versions feature.

A Version is some kind of milestone and can be used like a milestone.
In your tasks you can use this version for planning in what version the task was resolved in.
So you have an overview like
- “this bug was reported in version x.xx”
- “this bug/feature/issue was planned be fixed in version x.xx”
- “this bug/feature/issue was changed/fixed in version x.xx”
Quick edit form in task view

With the quick edit form in the task view your workflow of editing a task will be much faster than normal editing of your task.

The quick edit form allows you to change some important preferences of a task on the fly:
- milestone
- resolved in version
- resolve reason
- assignment
- prio
- completion
- status
In addition to this you have the possibility to post a comment within the quick edit form!

After sending the request to the server the task view looks like this:
