- <description><p>En god og offentlig kilde til bensinpriser i Norge er
-<a href="http://www.dinside.no/1931/her-faar-du-billigst-bensin-diesel">dinside.no
-sin prisoversikt</a> samlet inn på dugnad fra frivillige over hele
-landet. Den har ikke like mange priser rapportert inn som Bitfactorys
-mobil-app, men informasjonen som samles inn er enkelt offentlig
-tilgjengelig på web. Dessverre forsvinner prisene fra web etter noen
-dager, så for å kunne lage analyser og se trender må en lage en
-database ved å hente ut informasjon fra dinside.no sine nettsider over
-en lengre periode. Jeg startet for litt over en uke siden en
-innsamlingstjeneste som gjør nettopp dette. Jeg har de siste ukene
-lært meg å bruke <a href="http://www.scraperwiki.com/">Scraperwiki</a>,
-et nytt og nyttig verktøy for å hente ut og strukturere informasjon
-tilgjengelig fra nettsider, PDF-er og andre kilder og som trenger
-strukturering. Hvis du vil se hvordan prisene har utviklet seg, ta en
-titt på
-<a href="https://scraperwiki.com/scrapers/dinside-bensinpriser/">scraperwiki-siden
-med databasen</a> over bensinpriser. Den henter ned priser fra
-dinside.no hver time. Hvis du vil bidra til å bedre oversikt over
-bensinprisene i Norge
-<a href="http://www.dinside.no/php/int/vis_endre.php?ny=1">registrer
-deg</a> hos dinside.no og legg inn prisene fra dine lokale
-bensinstasjoner.</p>

+ <description><p>In january, I
+<a href="http://blog.cihar.com/archives/2012/01/17/colorhug-has-arrived/">discovered
+the ColorHug</a>, a USB dongle from
+<a href="http://www.hughski.com/index.html">Hughski</a> to calibrate
+the color on a computer screen. The software required is
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/colorhug-client.html">included
+in Debian</a>, and I decided back then to preorder from the next
+batch. Yesterday I finally heard back from them, and got the
+opportunity to order. Today I ordered mine, and eagerly await the
+delivery. I hope it arrive next week, as I got a confirmation that it
+should go in the mail on monday. :)</p>
+
+<p>If you want to ensure the colors on the screen match the intended
+colors, I suggest you check out this cheap tool with free software
+drivers. :)</p>

+ <description><p>Peter Hidas fra Gartner melder i Computerworld at
+<a href="http://www.idg.no/computerworld/article245011.ece">Unix
+nedkjempes av Linux og Windows</a>. For meg er påstanden meningsløs,
+da Linux er en variant av Unix, og hele diskusjonen om Linux er Unix
+eller ikke er utdatert og uinteressant. Jeg ser at Helge Skrivervik
+deler mitt syn på saken i sin kommentar fra i går om at
+"<a href="http://www.mymayday.com/blogs/2012/unix-linux">Unix vs. Linux
+= uinteressant"</a>.</p>
+
+<p>I <a href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a>-sammenheng møter jeg av og
+til folk som tror NUUG er for avdankede folk som driver med den samme
+Unix-varianten som Peter Hidas skriver om i sin kommentar, og dermed
+er en foreningen for avdankede teknologer interessert i døende
+teknologi. Intet kunne være lengre fra sannheten.</p>
+
+<p>NUUG er en forening for oss som har sans for fri programvare, åpne
+standarder og Unix-lignende operativsystemer, som Ubuntu, FreeBSD,
+Debian, Mint, Gentoo, Android, Gnome, KDE, LXDE, Firefox, LibreOffice,
+ODF, HTML, C++, ECMA-Script, etc. Kort sagt der nyskapning skjer på
+IT-fronten i dag. Det innebærer selvfølgelig også de som er
+interessert i de "gamle" Unix-ene som Solaris og HP-UX, men de er bare
+et lite mindretall blant NUUGs medlemmer. De aller fleste medlemmene
+har i dag fokus på Linux.</p>

+ <description><p>It has been a few busy weeks for me, but I am finally back to
+publish another interview with the people behind
+<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu and Skolelinux</a>.
+This time it is one of our German developers, who have helped out over the
+years to make sure both a lot of major but also a lot of the minor
+details get right before release.
+
+<p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
+
+<p>My name is Jürgen Leibner, I'm 49 years old and living in
+Bielefeld, a town in northern Germany. I worked nearly 20 years as
+certified engineer in the department for plant design and layout of an
+international company for machinery and equipment. Since 2011 I'm a
+certified technical writer (tekom e.V.) and doing technical
+documentations for a steam turbine manufacturer. From April this year
+I will manage the department of technical documentation at a
+manufacturer of automation and assembly line engineering.</p>
+
+<p>My first contact with linux was around 1993. Since that time I used
+it at work and at home repeatedly but not exclusively as I do now at
+home since 2006.</p>
+
+<p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux/Debian Edu
+project?</strong></p>
+
+<p>Once a day in the early year of 2001 when I wanted to fetch my
+daughter from primary school, there was a teacher sitting in the
+middle of 20 old computers trying to boot them and he failed. I helped
+him to get them booting. That was seen by the school director and she
+asked me if I would like to manage that the school gets all that old
+computers in use. I answered: "Yes".</p>
+
+<p>Some weeks later every of the 10 classrooms had one computer
+running Windows98. I began to collect old computers and equipment as
+gifts and installed the first computer room with a peer-to-peer
+network. I did my work at school without being payed in my spare time
+and with a lot of fun. About one year later the school was connected
+to Internet and a local area network was installed in the school
+building. That was the time to have a server and I knew it must be a
+Linux server to be able to fulfil all the wishes of the teachers and
+being able to do this in a transparent and economic way, without extra
+costs for things like licence and software. So I searched for a
+school server system running under Linux and I found a couple of
+people nearby who founded 'skolelinux.de'. It was the Skolelinux
+prerelease 32 I first tried out for being used at the school. I
+managed the IT of that school until the municipal authority took over
+the IT management and centralised the services for all schools in
+Bielefeld in December of 2006.</p>
