News & updates
September 30th, 2010
I have started on a project to make my LEGO RC car to have some radio module so I can have fun in winter time.
There is also some code for you there if you are interested. :)

So, well, still few updates due to I have some exams I have to read to... My goal is to educate into some sort of an electrician, and hope I can get a future in the norwegian railway industry. And perhaps drive some trains...?
I would also like to have some guestbook entries from you. :)

Yes, yes, I know there have been no updates as I promised but still I got a summer season work in a quite large neighborhood, which means I do not get quite much time to fiddle around with my electronics, web design and my website.
But I can tell you that I bought some sort of a LCD graphic display, ST7920 controller, but I have not made it to work yet. And it turned out - as I have read - that this Graphic LCD display is not a graphic display, but rather a clone of the HD44780 character display controller. So I bought another one, a KS0108B controller which seems to be quite much discussed around the Internet. I will try to post some progress when I receive it.

I've been busy last weeks with some work, so I haven't been able to post anything new here. Though I have received a 4x16 LCD character display (HD44780 controller), a PIC18F4550 and some other goodies. I will post a blog entry of that when I have enough time.

Since Sunday 23rd my servers went down... Well the webserver Charlie and database Bravo went down but not the main server Hercules...
Well, I am up again and very soon I will post a new blog entry about a simple but fun RC car I have made out of LEGO, tape, old computerfan and some RC radio controller units.
Stay tuned.

Added a Google Translate utillity for those of you that is not satisfied enough with your English.
Also, there is a new blog entry about my RC car.

So I have just had my first blog entry. Mostly just to test the TinyMCE editor I use for editing the site.
It works nice but it got its flaws which forces me to do minor edits into the database itself...

New design for this website and is now focused to use English as main language rather than Norwegian.
