- However good or bad a situation is - it will change.

- “Through the beautiful always to the good”: New recordings from my choir.
2010-01-11
- Due to unforeseen developments in my teacher training I do have some free time now, which I use to extend and update my homepage:
- There are new, detailed computer software recommendations!
- A new selection of photos from my “half way around the world” trip in 2008: Victoria, Australia.
- Current webbrowsers' new functionality is now better used: shadows under the menu (better visible with a bright background), and embedded fonts (only for the German version of this website).
- Eight new photos from Dortmund and the area.
- Dortmund as part of the Ruhr (area) now officially is (part of) the European Capital of Culture 2010!
2009-12-24
- Merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2010!
- More new content coming soon!
2009-11-15
- My “to-do list“ with plans for Vlado World-Wide grows and grows, but during the two years' teacher training I'm currently in I can't even think of processing it all.
- Also being a member and the webmaster of my local Greens branch takes a lot of the time I might otherwise have used for this private homepage of mine.
- After three semesters at the university choir I joined the men's choir “Harmonie” 1882 early this year. Our next performance is November 22nd at the Freischütz.

- Renovated the Dortmund page and added one more photo to the Dortmund gallery.
2009-02-22

2008-07-28
- The web pages on Vlado World-Wide are now created with PHP. The language to use is now detected from the browser settings. Soon some new content will follow.

08-11-2007
- The about page is updated.
- 52 photos of a three-day holiday in Hamburg.
- Minor corrections of the old photo album.
- Adapted some formats to idiosyncrasies of the relatively new Internet Explorer 7. Please use a different browser if you can!
- I felt impelled to make my contempt for advertising in my guestbook more explicit, after I had to delete 25 spam entries within one year.

- To let you test the improvements, I uploaded 40 new pictures from a trip to Prague.
03-03-2007
- In order to finally have reliable e-mail addresses with my domain I’ve switched to JPBerlin. So now I pay more, which as a side-effect also gives me enough webspace to have all my pictures, including those from my Australia Year 2003, on the same server.
- Three new photos from Dortmund, taken near my flat.
21-01-2007
- Problems with my e-mail address again: like in 2004 I had to discover that some e-mails that assertedly were sent to me never reached their destination. I’ll no longer pay this provider, and try to find something more reliable. If you are still waiting for a reply, please send you message again!
- Finally we in Dortmund also get to feel climate change! Not only that riding the bicycle without gloves is no problem at all this January (which is supposed to be one of the coldest winter months, together with February) - no, we even finally get to experience interesting winds in the city area, so the we no longer just now windthrown trees from tv shows and holiday trips.
01-11-2006
- The program Sprechzeiterfassung, a better stopwatch.
29-08-2006
- Instead of uploading pictures that I took to the Dortmund gallery, there are five photos of me, taken by friends, this time.
- Probably my longest holiday in duration and distance during summer 2006: three days in Mainz.
- Just in case someone missed it: the guestbook is working again.
- No more GPL violation: my modifications to the guestbook are now available in source code.
19-07-2006
- Already a few weeks ago I’ve finally completed the Wir zweifeln jetzt anders photo series.
- Added on the About Page that I am now the webmaster for ESN Dortmund.

05-05-2006
- 106 photos from my second Australia trip!
- Now the photo gallery index appears in the navigation menu as well.
16-02-2006
- What are the top 100 most embarrassing things?
- 1. Love.
- 2. When you don’t have a clue.
- 3. First having a big mouth, and then just coming up with three.
I am glad to now have clarity... because indeed it was embarassing, havig this stupid heart on the top of my news page, although she said she was “not sure”. So now I’m on my own again and can light-heartedly travel half-way around the world... new pics from Australia are planned for mid-April.
- Already done: minor corrections to the Australia Page.
- Yet another thing: three new Photos from Germany.
18-12-2005
- Having solitarily travelled half-way around the world I finally found love at home, a girl from my own kindergarten group!
- She does not like the idea of being displayed on the internet, unlike my flatmate, who usually encurages me to take and upload photos of him.
- Apart from the abovementioned flatmate photo there are six other new photos at the bottom of the Dortmund photo page.
24-10-2005
- The promised new Photo Index (many photos, little words).
- On the German language Studies Page I updated my current timetable (Stundenplan).

- Beer Section introduced on the Dortmund Page.
09-12-2004
- Vlado World-Wide moved to a different provider! Probably there will still be some work to be done on the website, but all my eMail addresses with vlado-do.de should already work properly again.
- Problems with my eMail addresses "@vlado-do.de": recently evidence for very poor reliability has been overwhelming:
- Although I wrote so many e-mails recently, on the 16th of November for instance, I hardly get any.
- On mailing lists I get replies to e-mails that seemingly were send to that list as well, but newer reached me.
- A test e-mail I send to myself only arrived with a four day delay.
- My internet domain’s move to a different provider has been initiated, but has not been carried out yet. In the meantime writing to my old GMX address might be the more reliable way of reaching me (although it is heavily loaded with junkmail and especially e-mails written in English run a small risk of being falsely identified as spam by my local SpamAssassin): vlado@gmx.net
18-11-2004
- Eight new photos from Dortmund.
25-09-2004
- The Japanese character of the title page should now display correctly (as long as you have the necessary font) because with the help of a little PHP script I found out the character’s unicode "number".
- I removed a file from the dFG archive which should not have been in it from the start and cleaned up the dFG’s css file too.
05-09-2004
- Photos from a bike ride to Berlin
- ...which, just like my Dortmund photos (some new entries as well) are being displayed by dFG 3.3.3pre2, a PHP script that I modified for my galleries.

- I changed the layout of the site, especially the menu, so that now it looks less crap (but still not right) in the unfortunately so wide-spread Micro$oft IE. I’m now using less transparent PNG pictures (which are looking ugly in the IE for Windows), but I copied the rounded edges design from the Why Mozilla (for users) site (which the IE does not support either).
