I might begin to repost and relocate entries from my old blog. There are som good thoughts there and it bugs me that they are dead in a weblog way of speaking. The MT-engine somehow gave up on me and not sporting the most excessive knowledge on databases and stuff (you probably know better than I what I mean), it was only a backup that saved the old blog from being but a digital fart in cyberspace.
I’ve decided to learn the shortcuts in Firefox but my patience is not as long as it used to be… Learning an application or computergame by mere trial and error has somehow lost it’s charm. And thus I went hunting for an overview of the shortcuts in Firefox. Obviously I succeded, and I’m now trying to internalize ctrl+t for new tabs, ctrl+tab for sorting through the tabs, ctrl+w closes the active tab, and finally ctrl+l for the adressbar, which in Firefoxian is the location bar.
Ahh, ctrl+1-9 can also be used to navigate throug the tabs.
I’m getting there. 
Not being the most experienced user of powerpoint I have embarked on journey into unknown territories. Some things seem strangely familiar, and yet others are so very different from what I am used to… Take for instance the plethora of features you can add to style and actions on the page; text swirls, twirls, fades and slides – to mention just a few. As I sit here i get flashbacks to some of the first experiences with wordperfect – then it t was mindblowing that you could actually use bold or italics or even change the font size, then came word with wordart, colors and mages. Unfortunately many experiments went awry with overstyling (I’m getting to the point know…).
Styling a document with all kinds of fancy effects is not directly related to the classical rethorical understanding of ornatus, but powerpoint can be seen as part of the speaker’s actio and thus affect his delivery by being too ornated.
Well, it may be old news – but it is an important part of delivering a convincing presentation and I am proud to be aware of the pitfalls of powerpoint.
