Cult of Mac: iTunes Is Apple’s “Weakest Link”
Seems I’m not alone thinking that iTunes needs to be split up into at least two, maybe more separate apps.
So here’s my suggestion. Break iTunes into separate tools for separate functions. An app that plays audio content. An app for browsing and buying in the Store. An app for managing iDevices. Break it up into its component parts, let each one do its thing. Independently, and when required.

It’s taken a while, but I finally made some time to sort out my pictures from DrupalCon Copenhagen 2010. Everything is on Flickr, as usual. Eelke’s DrupalCon Copenhagen 2010 pictures.
LeftLane: MINI quietly unveils Scooter E Concept ahead of Paris Motor Show
LeftLane News is reporting that Mini will show an electric scooter in concept form at the Paris Motor Show. Interesting. How Mini can you go? Are they trying to compensate for the “giant” Countryman?

Converting from Subversion to Git
Note: This tutorial is about completely replacing a server-side Subversion repository by a Git repository, for a workflow with a central Git repository. If you just want to use Git as a frontend to a Subversion repository, you are probably better off with the standard Git SVN documentation.
For a personal project I wanted to convert from subversion to Git. There are a lot of tutorials out there. Why add another one? Well, I haven’t found one that is generic and tells me everything I want to do. The most notable omission from most tutorials is, what happens to your Subversion branches and tags. I want them to be properly converted, and I want to replace my server side SVN repo with a Git repo, so that I have a central place somewhere that stores my work.
So, I’m recording the steps I need to take, as much for my own future reference as for the “public benefit”. The project in question is the website for the Mini Seven Club Nederland. I’m by no means a Git expert (I hope to become one once I have converted a few of my projects to Git), so please bare with me and forgive any mistakes I might make (or rather, please point them out in the comments).

Translations broken on WooThemes Bueno
The past few days, I have been working on switching my girlfriend’s new site – Mientje’s Baksels – from wordpress.com to a self-hosted blog, using WordPress 3′s new multisite feature (this blog should move there soon too, I just have to sort out the domain transfer). The wordpress.com blog used WooTheme’s Bueno theme, which we thought matched very well with the subject of her blog: cakes. Unfortunately, the theme didn’t seem to pick up the Dutch language selection. Here’s what was wrong with it, and what I did to fix it.

This is just ridiculously cool. Small works of art carved from the tip of a pencil.

Upgrade to WordPress 3
Just a quick note to say I’ve upgraded this blog to WordPress 3.0.1. I haven’t had a look around yet, but I plan to give the multisite feature a run for its money soon.
