This day has been mostly inefficient. I have been lazy and haven't accomplished much. But I have created a script that counts the number of visitors on the site and you can also register now, not log in though. I have to figure out something first, before I will fix so you can log in. But I am happy to see that some of you have written in the guestbook! I also tried to find a better font for the header thanks to Tim's last comment (I had totally forgotten about the header) but I've decided to create a header-image instead. Actually I probably wont keep much of the current layout since the site at the moment has no real purpose. But for now it is a wall, and I've learned much creating it!
Now I have to pack because tomorrow I'm off to Berlin, Germany!
So see you all
Bye

Oh that's right!
Almost forgot that I was suppose to give you the latest update! Well it is late now and I'm tired so I guess you'll just have to check it out yourselves! And leave a comment in the guestbook! It's up and running now!
Good night
Good night

Day two
Greetings fellow internet users! I am now officially an html-nerd. I spent moste of the day learning and applying what I've learned. My day is easy to summarize:
I'll probably post something more about my progress tonight, so see you then.
11.00Facepalm13.00Singing and dancing16.00Double facepalm- And so on...
I'll probably post something more about my progress tonight, so see you then.

Restart
Well, as you can see, I am not a consistent man. I did start to write but then I had a hard time finding opportunities to write. I did start using c++ but now I actually started writing in Java again because I wanted to write simple games and doing graphics in c++ is anything but easy.
Apart from the Java-programming, I also have a new project which is the reason for my comeback here. I am writing a website for a company, which happens to be run by me and my friend. So I am now going to do this blog my notebook or diary or what one may call it, for the website project that is. The Java-thing-ie well, that will just have to take the time it needs. I will focus mainly on the website. And by the way, if any of you have a good tip of a course or similar (maybe a tutorial) then leave a comment, since I am kind of new at this hole world of web-programming.
Also if you want to leave a comment about layout or bugs, feel free to check the site out here!
Til next time, got to sleep!

A decision has been made
I am sorry I haven't updated my blog for a while now, I just never really found a good time for it. But now I'm back and I've got some news: I am going over to the other side. Meaning C++ not the dark side. I don't really know why I decided to switch but it just feels like it's easier going from C++ to Java than the other way around. So if I learn C++ it wont be as hard to learn Java later, and now I have programming in school so I have a teacher who can help me if I get stuck.
Besides, it feels like C++ makes much more sense to me than Java, although Java is a much more comfortable language to be programming in. The only problem is the problem which Tim also pointed out in the comments of my last post; that Java has awt and swing which are well built, ready to use, functions to make a nice GUI, where C++ only has qt which I heard is not that easy to use. So although I tried to compare Java and C++ in my last post, Tim was of course right. It is almost impossible to choose which is the "better" language. They are just different. But even though I don't know if C++ is the better choice for me, I've made my decision.
Maybe I'll even post one of my programs I make here, so you can see my projects at the moment. Although that would be easier whit Java, cause then I could just make an Applet... And so the battle continues.

Tonight: Java vs C++
Although I am not yet an educated programmer in neither Java nor C++ I do have some experience in the differences between them.
The first thing, of course, is that dealing whit graphics is a lot easier in Java than C++, but instead of stating the obvious I want to throw in some of my own opinions and experiences whit Java's JFrame, which is the package I use the most. Even though it is really easy to make your own menus and windows whit JFrame compared to C++, I still haven't found one single website that lists all the different layouts a panel can be made whit. All those I know, I have learn from friends at school. But that's just one example, there are many more. Now, I'm not saying that it is impossible to learn JFrame, my point is that there are way to many built-in functions you can use. And that's my biggest found difference between Java and C++. In C++ you have to make the functions you need on your own or "include" functions other people have made, while in Java the most time is put into learning all built-in features. I haven't yet decided which of the two I prefer, but I will keep learning both and hopefully then I can help those of you who wonder which to learn or where to start.
And to those of you who already know both Java and C++ like the back of your hand, please comment and tell me what you think of the two. Which is better? Faster? Easier?
Cheers!

Big step into adult life
As it happens, today is my 18th birthday! So, I was woken up this morning, by a singing family and a not so much singing little sister. Instead she through herself into my bed to make a cave out of my cover. I did get a birthday kiss from her though.
After the awakening I got to open my presents and eat a big breakfast. My presents consisted of some clothes, a book, some money and an Iphone. Although, the Iphone hadn't got here yet so I just got an envelope whit a picture of it, but that was enough to make me go like this!
Well no I have to go and eat my first lunch as an adult, but I'll probably write something more later about what I think about C++ relative to Java.
See you then!

Welcome!
Since this is my first post on this blog I thought I might as well summarize what I am going to write about.
As you may have read I am really into computers and using them in all the ways possible, so I am going to write about what I do and discover. I am at the moment learning some programming languages for example c++ and java, and I am also considering to launch a website. All I need is some more experience and someone to help me on the way, so if you are interested, let me know!
That's about it. And by the way, I am probably going to post some thoughts about other things as well when I have to lighten my mind a little bit, but most of the time I will write about computers!
That's all for now, be sure to leave a comment if you have any thoughts about what i could write about, or just tell me what you think of the stuff i write.
Cheers
