I tend to test a lot of things like electronic gadgets, computer programs etc. and I like to share my experiences with you. This category also includes non-electronic things like movies, music and books.

My favorite iPhone apps of 2009

By emil | Published: January 8, 2010
The number of applications in Apple’s App Store has exploded during 2009 and it is getting harder and harder to find new stuff. Therefore I thought it was a good idea to share my favorite applications of 2009 (mostly based on the apps I have used the most). ReederAs a Google Reader addict I have tried [...]

10 years of digital cameras

By emil | Published: May 24, 2009
I recently sold my Nikon D90 since I realized that I only use an SLR-camera when I’m on vacation. In everyday situations it is just to heavy to throw in the backpack. While thinking about which camera to go with instead (an ongoing thought process of mine) it struck me that I have been a [...]

NovaMind Express

By emil | Published: September 18, 2007
Testade precis en trial av MindMap-programmet NovaMind för OS X. Det verkade lovande från de screenshots som finns på hemsidan, men efter att ha använt det I ungefär 10 min för att göra en nowMap gav jag upp. Buggigare mjukvara får man ju leta efter. Skulle aldrig få för mig att betala 345 kr för [...]

I recently found the book Code Complete 2 in a review at http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/. The review praised the book a lot, and I also found some other good reviews about it at other sites so I decided to order it. Basically it covers all aspects of software construction from a developers point of view. It is not [...]

Book review: Find the bug

By emil | Published: May 22, 2005
Published 2005 by Addison Wesley and written by Adam Barr, this piece of work comes right from the press. It challenges the reader to analyse the source a step further like a “human debugger”. Many bugs are hidden during normal debugging and does not show up in unit tests. To find these bugs, the programmer must [...]
