A small step for us, one huge leap for Romeo

Tina called me this morning, I was already at work. "He can walk" she said. "What?" "He can walk and stand all by himself". Romeo could walk before, but always needed our support. Now, for the first time he took some steps without help. Isn't that great!? A real milestone for the little guy. Well done boyo, I am so proud of you! Can't wait to see you do it.
As soon as we have a flick I'll post it here!
[UPDATE, 12th of August] It seems that Tina and I had some miscommunication :-). Romeo can walk, but not entirely by himself. Instead of two hands, he now only needs one hand support. So still a big step, but not a giant leap. Soon we hope to see him walk alone. We'll be back then for sure!

You traveller, me photographer

Hoorah! One of our photos has been selected for the online travel guide website Schmap. It's a pic of Dublin cafe Voodoo (part-owned by Fun Lovin Criminals' Huey). Check it out here. How we got there? It was found via Flickr... Make sure your tags are alright and you will be found also.
A great tip before going on holiday: type in a city in Flickr and be amazed.

Heavens - Patent Pending

YES, this is a must see/listen: a great song by Heavens (formed by former members of Alkaline Trio). It's called Patent Pending and you can see the clip with funny intro here. I really like the speed and the style of it. Punk with a catchy tune. More info on the band here. Don't hesitate any longer.

It could happen to us

What would happen if the internet broke down? How could it happen? What would fill the void? And how can we all get it back online? Check it out in this geniously made flick.

Conan the Rasterbarian

Have already been canvanized? Do you want to be (even) more creative? Rasterbate! This is a cool site where you can rasterize your photos, divided over multiple A4 / Letter pages. So you can fill your walls easily with a huge poster that you made yourself. All you need is a printer, lots of ink, a little patience and - of course - a good photo. Go create.

Canvanize

We always wanted a canvas on our wall. But we didn't have a good photo yet and also lack of time was a disturbing factor. But thanks to our good friend and colleague Marco - who shot the photo - we now have one. It's fantastic. The original picture was shot in color, but we turned it into black and white first and then gave it a purple haze. To go with the rest of our livingroom. We used the site mooiaanjemuur. They offer good value for money, deliver for free and are really fast. Go check it out and canvanize your house!
