How YR.no make the best weather site in Norway

Monday, 12. October 2009, 08:40:03

,

Swedish Techworld magazine is running an in-depth article on how the Norwegian weather site YR.no works (Swedish only, unfortunately, but you could try Google Translate).

There are a couple of interesting facts presented that at least I did not know of before, like how meteorological data is available for free for anyone who wants it, and in a standardized format, circulated by the UN's WMO (World Meteorological Organization).

But even with all these data and models, the prognosis for yesterday claimed there would be no rain here in Oslo, while it in reality came pouring down. Better luck next time, I guess.

Everything you have ever heard of Japan is true

A colleague who spent three months working from our Japanese office told me on his return that “everything you have ever heard of Japan is true”. I have only been there briefly, but from what I have seen, I do have to agree, not only because ZDNet Japan just published a report on what we eat for lunch, there are so many other things that make Japan into such a wonderful country… :smile:

I recently received a link to an illustrated guide to the Internet in Norway over at Digi. Even if you don’t speak Scandinavian, the pictures do talk for themselves…

Good Swedish article about Opera

I usually do not just post links to the blog, but this article is worth reading: E24.se: Allt ljus på Opera (Swedish)

–Vi vill köpa ert företag för 100 miljoner kronor, sa företrädaren från Sun.
Jon S. von Tetzchner och Geir Ivarsøy var tysta någon sekund.
–Smickrande, men det är inte till salu, svarade Jon.

  • Does anyone have a bug fix?

    As a programmer I am quite used to bugs, or software errors, that have to be fixed. But I was not expecting to find a bug, or insect, in my müsli when I was about to have breakfast this morning. I opened a new package and was just about to pour me a portion when I was greeted by two small inse ...

  • Fy, Nintendo

    Min Wii tyckte jag skulle installera en uppdatering i dag, sÃ¥ det gjorde jag. Inte för att jag vet vad den innehöll för förbättringar, men den innehöll en stor försämring – den avinstallerade Homebrew Channel, ett program jag installerat pÃ¥ min Wii för att spel ...

  • Home at last

    I arrived back from Essen late last night. It was really nice to come back there again after not having joined last year, but it is still very nice to get back home again. It feels a bit weird to be away from Jenny and Thea for that many days. (Continues…)

It is me, Allan and Thomas, who once again are colleagues since I am back at Opera. The fair looks just about like it did last time, the big companies ar ...
