Who doesn't like it? :-)

Together with my friends Janosch and Sebastian, I went to the Chemnitzer Linuxtage (Chemnitz Linux Conference) at the weekend.

The trip took three and a half hours by car, but I would say it was worth it, although there were less business people and company presence than I expected. Too many freaks :-)

The most notable presentations I took part in were about the PostgreSQL open-source database system and about website security, including a live demonstration of cross-server-scripting attacks.

The organisators provided sleeping place in a sports hall, which was a good stay for a great price (5 Euro including a nice breakfast buffet).

Also notable for the weekend was our selfmade after-show party, which was prepared in advance by buying lots of beer and some potatoe chips :)

I did not really enjoy the tour back home, as I was little tired and stressed, but after all, I had two fun days with good friends.

Children love birds. Took this picture two days ago. The weather was nice. I enjoyed the sunshine too, although it is was not very warm outside... Summer, where are you?

No... thanks.

I find adventure everywhere,
and friends with whom I'd like to share.
This is my stop along the way.
Don't really know how long I'll stay.
Stop over. The world is my friend.
Stop over along the road without end.
Traveling around from town to town.
Sometimes I think I'll settle down.
But I know I'd hunger to be free.
Rovin' is the only life for me.
A-driftin'. The world is my friend.
I'm travelin' along the road without end.

By the way, I could go crazy for all this lomo here and there. As a result, here is a lomolized version of the above image. It has been processed with The Gimp and the Photo:Lomo script. Another Lomo: Yesterday's road with the truck

Looks like we're comin' into town.
Seems like this train is slowin' down.
Can't help but wonder what's in store.
Could be I've been here once before.
A-driftin'. The world is my friend.
I'm travlin' along the road without end.
Ridin' these rails town to town.
Sometimes I think I'll settle down.
But I know I'd hunger to be free.
Rovin's the only life for me.
A-driftin'. The world is my friend.
I'm travlin' along the road without end.

There's a voice that keeps on calling me.
Down the road. That's where I'll always be.
Oh, every stop I make, I make a new friend.
Can't stay for long. Just turn around, and I'm gone again.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down.
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep movin' on.
So, if you want to join me for awhile,
just grab your hat, and we'll travel light. That's hobo style.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down.
Until tomorrow, I'll just keep movin' on.
Until tomorrow, the whole world is my home.
