Garage48 in Helsinki and the Montroller Story (Videos)

Wednesday, January 19th, 2011

Back from another Garage48 event, this time from Helsinki. The project I was member of was completely different from the earier ones — we turned 6 more-or-less mobile devices into wireless 3D controllers for Lego Mindstorm NXT. We won Nokia special prize and public vote prize.

The Next Garage48 Passed, Two Weeks Later

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

As I promised in my previous post, The Story of Creating Cocktail Roulette at Garage48 Startup Bootcamp Weekend, I participated in another Garage48, that happened in August 27-29th, in Tartu. As I am personally Tartu-based, I was actually engaged with the organizing team, but in the beginning of the event, I also decided to jump into helping out one idea Blurt.at, which, I think, is so far the best micropolling site available .

The Story of Creating Cocktail Roulette at Garage48 Startup Bootcamp Weekend

Monday, April 19th, 2010

The concentration of IQ, energy and motivation was so sharp in Tallinn IT College this weekend, that there was a humming and glowing halo above the college building. What happened? 16 business ideas were turned into the launched startups in 48 hours during the Garage48.org event there. I got emotionally and physically entangled to the event in several ways.

Ideas Drawer, Sayat.me and Garage-48 style projects in general

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I’ve had some hobby-fun of trying out how small you can squeeze the time that is needed to complete a reasonable web site from an idea to first visitors (and their positive feedback). Ideas Drawer — in 12 hours by myself. Sayat.me — idea by me, but design and code by Mooncascade in 8 hours. Garage48 — weekend event in April, I’m planning to participate.

How to Install WordPress MU on Windows Vista Desktop

Monday, September 7th, 2009

As my blog is prowdly powered by WordPress (the non-MU version), I went through setting (the MU version of) it up onto my Vista desktop computer, to be able to try out things with it more closely. More than once things went tricky and I took some notes at those points, just in case for potential future reference. I decided to make these notes part of the global Internet noise. The result is below, starting from setting up Apache and ending with some last WordPress MU configuration option cleanup.

The DailyPerfect News Site Is Publicly Launched

Friday, June 5th, 2009

As usual with well prepared launches, the most exciting and rewarding moments are the last count-down moments before the launch, and observing the smooth lift-off of the baby – the first 400 users signing up in first 3 hours. These are the moments to live for!

I Almost Thought My Old University Time Homepage Is Lost for Good

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Do you lack a dose of nostalgy? Go on, and discover what has been there in the internet in the past. I just discovered 50 snapshots of my old homepage. The real gem is the only studio recording of our band. It is recorded on spring 1997. I am the middle singer (especially distinctive when screaming the high pitches at fourth verse) and doing the rhythm chords on nylon string guitar.
