How to use your own domain name with Gmail (with Google Apps and for free)
Are you also in love with Gmail’s interface but is it time to get a more professional looking email address like @nonimay.com or yourdomain.com? Don’t stress, Google Apps has you covered! You can pay or use the free option, I’ll show you both options in this tutorial (Get this done in less than 5-minutes!).(more…)
Long time followers of mine know I’m in to online privacy and internet freedom. It was a big challenge for me to figure out how to stay secure while traveling. (more…)
A big part of traveling these days is your digital presence. But besides the social obligations, we also use our phones and laptops for bookings, city guides, and other travel related stuff. (more…)
Decemless. A few tips to minimalize consumption during the Holidays (and empty the digital clutter!).
I complete agree with the first image, let’s try to consume less these holidays. It’s often over done with presents, food and alcohol but why? So you have something to do in January like getting back in shape? That’s total madness if you ask me. But more than overspending money on food and extra presents its also time to reflect & clean up!
Take your time to delete some of the digital clutter during the holidays. I know, Christmas behind your deviced is probably not how you imagined Christmas to be but if you’re taking a few days off it’s actually the best time to go through your digital files and delete one and another. I just deleted 250 GB from my Macbook PRO by backing up my iPhotos and videos and it’s such a relief. If you’ve more than 700 GB of digital photos and videos on your laptop it’s not as fast as it used to be once. Cleaning up was highly on my to do list, but if you’re always busy (mainly because everything takes sooo long because the Macbook was sooo slow) it’s actually a good investment. It took me a few days (iek, I know!) but now I’ve backed up, sorted out and cleaned up my photos and video archive and that’s really priceless as a blogger, photographer and creative type. Next up are my iPhone and my iMac, can’t wait to have everything digitally organised!
Oh, and with an empty desktop I decided to download myself a new background, itsssss Thierry Hendry, because today he retired from his great football career! He has been one of my favorite players for a very long time, so lI’ll show him my respect with this grand gesture by having him as a desktop background lol!
Hasselbladhas expanded its compact luxury line with the ‘stellar II’, a camera crafted exclusively for collectors and photography aficionados. Woah, I want that cam!! If you’ve been following me the past few years, you know that I do freelance photography work. But perhaps you also know I try to live a minimalistic life. How do I combine these two, as cameras come with gear. A lot of gear… I try to not spoil myself anymore with new cameras, the ones I have now (must say, I think I own about 15+ cameras.. told you I TRY to live minimalistic ;)) are more than enough for every things I want. I have analogue cameras, I have instax cameras, digital cameras, DSL cameras… but no Hasselblad. Hm, maybe… this is the perfect Christmas present for me. But maybe I should just leave it by dreaming. Who knows!
Oh, the camera is €1650,- haha..
