Moving North

After nearly 14 years in one place time was long overdue for a change. So I moved from Karlsruhe (South-West Germany, seat of both the Federal Constitutional Court and the Federal Court of Justice - just up and down the street where I lived) way up north to Hamburg (probably better known outside Germany for some places where the Beatles got some of their very first ideas ;-)

So, if you're visiting Hamburg, drop by for a tea or a coffee and/or some rest at the Elbe beach!

And if you're looking for a software engineer, a Java developer or a Java trainer in Northern Germany (or anywhere within reasonable flight or train distance), get in touch with me :-)

Mittelpunkt der Welt

Last week "Element of Crime" released their new album " Mittelpunkt der Welt" (centre of the world - which is, according to the lyrics, where your feet stand). Yes, it's a German band with German lyrics, but if you ever wanted to listen to some unconventional tune, put an ear on this one :-). Ten songs for the moods of autumn.

BTW: In their early years (1985-89) they used to sing in English, but believe me, their German is better ;-)

Finally...

After so many years on the web (IIRC my first home page started over 10 years ago) I finally decided it's time to publish my own weblog :-). Don't expect daily updates, but whenever I feel there's something interesting to say about browsers, JavaScript or my favourite programming language Java, I'll post a few lines.
