Have you ever wondered how it would be like to have a completely different line of work than your acctual work?
I have had this thought a few times and I’ve come up with a list of jobs I find interesting, some of them are not realistic at all since it requires years of studies and work experience, but I still choose to mention them. Other jobs would probably only be interesting in a week or so. The jobs are randomly listed and not listed by most wanted

Okay here we go:

• Crosswords author (sounds interesting enough, but just for a week or so).
• Helicopter pilot (requires years of studies and flight experience)
• Architect
• Work at a local recycling factory (only for a week, just to see what they actually do there)
• Athlete (but I guess that don’t count as a line of work)
• Carpenter
• Professional photographer
• Car designer
• Chef (I really like cooking)
• Millionaire

Please add a comment if you have a list of jobs you’d like to try out.

Torunn in Orange Bus submitted a wallpaper for Smashing Magazines October wallpaper download, and it got in Congratulations Torunn and Orange Bus, and good work Torunn

Guess what wallpaper I’ve got on my computer this month?

Mats forwarded the 123-meme to me today, I’m not entirely sure what 123-meming really is but the instructions are:

1. Pick up the book closest to you
2. Open page 123
3. Find the 5th sentence…
4. …and publish the next three sentences
5. Link to 5 other bloggers and tell who linked you

The book closest to me is: AGILE PROJECT MANAGEMENT WITH SCRUM, on page 123, sentenc nr 5 is:

During this day, the nonfunctional scaling requirements for this particular project are determined and placed in the Product Backlog. For example, if you are scaling the project to use multiple teams, the following nonfunctional requirements should be added to the Product Backlog:

• Decompose business architecture to support clean-interface multi-team development.
• Decompose system architecture to support clean-interface multi-team development.
• If necessary, define and implement a development environment to support multi-team collocated or distributed environments.

I pass this 123-meme on to Erik.

When talking about cheat sheets, www.ilovejackdaniels.com has a list of a few good cheat sheets. I’ve actually printed some of them at work and taped them to the wall next to my computer.

Thanks to Dave Child for doing the work of putting together these sheets.

Tonight I did a quick google search for a new wordpress design for klunde.net, I came over this page where I downloaded the earthtones design and added it to www.klunde.net

I came over this useful site: http://www.patternsforphp.com while browsing through the phpplanet rss. It has a introduction to the most common patterns, and its all written in PHP, quite handy when you need to look up a pattern.

Okay, I finally realized that I’d be better of using an existing blog publisher than writing the code myself. So far I’ve written most of the code on www.klunde.net, I tried out Joomla a few years ago, but I wasn’t quite happy with it, so the old php code I wrote in 2003 has done its purpose. Well I’ve started up writing my own CMS and web applications a few times now, and I have to admit I have a lot of fun writing these small web applications, but at the moment I just doesn’t have the time to maintain and write my own web application.

So bye bye old www.klunde.net and welcome to wordpress @ klunde.net. At the time of writing I’ve been using wordpress for approx. 20minutes, and I must say I’m impressed, easy administration interface, and easily set up
