SE P910 Resources

09.27.2005 · Posted in Technology

I\’ve been looking around for some cool stuff for my mobile and found a nice resource with tons of free themes/wallpapers/ringtones/mmses/whatever. Free registration is required and number of downloads are limited to 20 per day.

pfSense

Its been a week since I am playing around pfSense – a firewall solution based on m0n0wall (which, in turn, is based on FreeBSD and lots of open-source tools). For the time being it seems to work fine and handle the small LAN (around 40 users + 7 servers) with no problems.

The cool stuff around it is that it has WebGUI for all its configurations which makes it to be a nice replacement for those 3com ADSL routers people are usually using in such places.

My New SE P910i

09.26.2005 · Posted in Personal, Technology

Finally I managed to change my phone. My old Nokia 3310 [kindly presented to me by my brother as a birthday gift a three years ago] served me a lot and finally the battery dead. Due to the reason that I needed more powerful mobile I went and got Sony Ericsson p910 which I found to be a very good phone with everything (and even more) stuff I that were in my requirements list.

in addition I got a USB bluetooth (very small and handy) so I can make file exchange between my phone and all the computers I need.

Hope that the new phone will server me as good as the old one.

P.S.: since I have a digital camera in the phone I hope that some photos might appear in this blog from time to time which will make it more lovely.

Don\’t Worry, Be Happy.

Yesterday was watching one of the new russian movies \”Слова и Музыка\” [Words and Music] and heard this nice song by Michail Bashakov.

If you remember the original song \”Don\’t Worry, Be Happy\” by Bobby Mc. Ferry, this one uses the same melody, but the text is in russian and it is a very, very nice translation (of the hole idea, but not the text as it is). If you can understand russian, I would suggest you to download this track and take 3 minutes to listen to it. Don\’t know about you, but for me – it raised my mood a lot today morning :)
