Nowadays I'm quite busy with my work. As I mentioned before, we had some problems with the company that hosts our website ywamrestenas.se and we wanted to change that hoster. We decided to get hosting that would give us more control over the server, and we hound a couple of different solutions. Now the only thing we need to do is actually move the ywamrestenas website from one server to another. But before that operation, I decided to practice a little on the local server to manage Internet server (model) by myself. I'm quite successful so far but there is one little detail, our site is too complecated to simply move it. To resolve complications I have to setup our site from scratch and move old content to the new site. This is quite a job, and I ask you to pray for me.

To reduce future risks, I'm also looking into opportunities to move our site from one system (typo3) to something more easily set up (e.g. Joomla). This work is even bigger, and praise The Lord I dont have to rush. Right now I try to learn Joomla as much as possible to move all the templates to it, and convert typo3 extensions to Joomla extensions. I'm even afraid to touch this pile. Home to get more inspiration.

Thank you, my friends, for your prayers and support, I really need them now.

A few times in my lifeI was trying to fight against monopoly of microsoft on my computer, a couple years ago I finally won. Now I have Ubuntu Linux on my home and office PCs. As you might know there is no Internet Explorer in Linux, most of the distributions of Linux have Firefox installen for browsing the Web. So, both of my computers have FireFox preinstallen. But this browser is a little heavy on resources and sometimes behaves not well under slow oldish hardware, and here I remembered Opera. Opera is Norwegian web browser which was designed with speed in mind,After close comparison between browsers that I have used before Opera definately wins by speed of opening pages. However, Google's Chrome is stepping on tail and eats even less resources than Opera. But there is no Chrome for Linux yet, I dont even think that Google will daire to release Chrome for Linux in near future. That means I will use Opera on my old pentium 2 with IceBuntu Linux on it. I didnt do benchmark tests myself, there are plenty of people who did it and proved that Opera is fast. I just want to recommend you - if you are using old slow computer, and want to surf Internet without slow-downs, Opera is the choise for you. I use this browser on my telephone too. Opera mobile is also the fastest according to my experience.

If you are Christian, who has windows mobile based Pocket Pc or smartphone, I'm sure you would like to have the Bible in your device. There are quite a few different software products available on the market to satisfy your need, I'll list only freeware and only those that have Russian Bible in them:

Some time ago I was looking for an alternatiive to heavy and slow Eclipse and NetBeans, for Java development, and I found a few Java IDEs (written on Java) but most of them where a little slow. But after a few hours (or days..., I dont remember already) I found one excellent aplication called tIDE. It is writtem on Java, but fast enough to compete with such monsters as netBeans. It has most of the features that commersial IDEs have. It is open source, and it weights only 2Mb. If you are Java developer - you should check this  IDE. Here is what the author say about his programme:

"tIDE is a full featured opensource Java integrated development environment (IDE), distributed under the GNU General Public Licence (GPL).

More precisely: tIDE is a small, powerful, quick, efficient, easy and open framework to create 100% Java applications.

Try tide, you'll be astonished by its simplicity and rapidity. No installation is required. A single click on the JNLP and the IDE is on your screen ! An import tool let you import the main settings of any existing Eclipse, NetBeans or Schmortopf project."
