Photo blogging before “smart phones”

Erlend — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 13:22:15 +0000

Rummaging through an old Unix account I found the following Perl script, simply named “test.pl”. What could it be? It hasn’t been touched for over five years:

-rw-r--r-- 1 hamberg fidi_s 870 2005-09-17 04:50 test.pl

Reading the code it becomes apparent that it processes text and extracts base 64 encoded data…

… which made me remember that I used this as an email filter to extract images from MMS messages sent to myself from my mobile phone. Whenever I sent a formatted email to myself it would extract the image and text and make a blog post. I remember that was quite cool back then.

These posts even survived the transition to using WordPress for my blog: http://hamberg.no/erlend/category/mms-bilder/.

Det gleder meg stort at det finnes folk som leser om treringforskning.

Minibank-feil

Erlend — Fri, 17 Mar 2006 12:30:43 +0000

Da jeg skulle ta ut 200 kroner fra en minibank i dag, fikk jeg ingen penger, men denne beskjeden. Etter en telefon til Fokus bank løste det seg heldigvis, og jeg får pengene mine tilbake.
