Master's thesis officially published

It is done. Today I officially published my Master's thesis. Since I use pictures from other publications, I had to ask all authors for permission to republish them. There is still one permission missing, so I decided to exclude the picture and include a link to the author's page where a picture can be found. Thereby I am finally able to release my work. Here is the link:

TAOs - Tangible Active Objects for Table-top Interaction - BibTeX

This is a low-resolution online version. Enjoy!

Code Folding in GEdit

For those of you, using GEdit: I found a plugin (by Kawaikunee), that allows code folding. You can find it at

http://code.google.com/p/gedit-folding/

Just download both filed from the download page into your /home/[USER]/.gnome2/gedit/plugins (create it if it does not exist). After restarting GEdit and enabling the plugin in GEdit's preferences dialog (there it's called "Simple Folding" and is described in Russian) you can use folding by pressing ALT-Z (in the first line of the block you want to fold). Works fine here. Unfortunately it only works by short-cut not with mouse. The folded block is then reduced to the first line an highlighted light green.

Enjoy!

Much has happened

First of all, I have to apologize for not posting so long (again). I am very sorry!

Much has happened in the time since the last posting. During the end phase of my Master's thesis I applied for a Ph.D. research grant of the CITEC institute, which was finally successful. After submitting my Master's thesis (and getting a really nice final grade ;-)) I may now work on my Ph.D. thesis. *Yippie*

I'm also going to publish my Master's thesis here on my website (the BibTeX entry is already online: riedenklau2009tao.bib).

Keep an eye on this blog. Further things will come. This does not mean that I have more time now, but I hope to start posting, again. ;-)
