I am very fond with the new theme and I hope you all like it too.

You can click here to navigate to the testimony page or use the sidebar on the right of this post.

Furthermore I want to encourage you to write your own personal testimony, because thinking about your motivations and believes will strengthen you by giving you an clearer insight into who you are.

Professionally I have been very busy with re-implementing an application to leverage to power of DDD (Domain Driven Design). The application contains objects, users and permissions, the difficult part was to come up with a design to handle permissions for the different objects. At the moment the architecture is highly experimental, but when I am finished with it I will publish a sample on this weblog, so keep an eye out.

Personally I have been spending a lot of time with my girlfriend, since she is going on a 2 week holiday this weekend. This weekend I went with her, her sister and her friend on a weekend trip in Venlo. We had some great time there; I wish that could last forever. Unfortunately all good things end. Anyway, my journey to find 5 minutes beauty each day is going absolutely amazing: It gives me great joy and happiness in my life.

Today I am going to work on a very interesting new concept we came up with in a meeting last week. It is an effort to present the truth about a lot of things in a simple, yet comprehensible, way. We want to provoke discussions on various subjects, like: the ‘Al Gore’ discussions about the environment. I do not know where it will lead, how we are going to do it, but I am very existed about it and I believe that it is an opportunity to change the world. I will keep you posted on this!

I have decided to split this blog into two sections. One section about my personal life and one section about software development. To clearly differentiate between those two sections I decided to split my personality as well. For my personal posts I will keep using the my real name â??Bert Willemsâ?? and for my software development related posts I am going to use my â??hackerâ?? alias â??Trilobyte.â??

You can find a list of posts written by my two selves by clicking on the links behind the names below.

I hope you like what I have done, otherwise please let me know!

• About
  This item contains a very short description of what this weblog is all about.
• Currently Reading
  In this item you can find the book I am currently reading, you can click on the cover of the book to go straight to the bookâ??s page on Amazon.com.
• Categories
  The categories item has been changed. The categories are now represented by a so called tag-cloud. The bigger the category name the more posts it contains.

Another imported change is that most of the pages are translated in English and I made some minor content updates.

Last, but certainly not least, I added printing support to the post. Click on a post and you will see a small icon of a printer just below the title. I think that will be a welcome feature.

Tonight I will try to finish the translation my curriculum vitae.

Op het moment ben ik nog bezig met het maken van een pagina voor mijn Curriculum Vitae en het opnieuw schrijven van de Over Mij pagina. Ik hou je op de hoogte.

De nieuwe theme is gebaseerd op de MistyLook 2.3 theme van Sadish Bala en is XHTML 1.1 en CSS complient. Het design lijkt goed te werken in Firefix 2.0 en Internet Explorer 7.0. Mocht iemand problemen hebben met de theme laat het dan even weten.

De nieuwe features van de theme zijn:

• Simpel en overzichtelijk
• Meertalige ondersteuning
• Reacties op pagina’s

Ik ben nog bezig met het zoeken naar een nieuw plaatje voor de header, maar tot zo ver noch geen geluk. Mochten er nog op of aanmerkingen zijn gebruik dan het onderstaande formulier om een reactie te plaatsen.

Groeten,
Bert
