I meant to do this review already some time ago since I’ve had the Tanita BC-601 Segmental Body Composition Monitor for six months now. However, I’ve at least had some time to gather data and to see how the device can be used to follow trends. I’m glad to say that it has been quite [...]
I’ve just made a final decision to integrate my general website into the WordPress blog. There are some downsides to this, but it looks like things should work out just fine. The main issue that I still have is to find a way to get dynamic updates from my Gallery 3 installation, with all my [...]
Well, in fact they’re already here, as you can see. It was about time to change the look of this blog, and although the previous theme that I used is one of the more interesting ones out there (especially because of the user-adjustable width), it was getting rather old.

Due to my move to the University of Helsinki, I will be primarily using my new helsinki.fi e-mail address in the future. My Durham e-mail is still working and I will check it periodically, but I’ll try to stop using it altogether as soon as possible, because the Durham e-mail system is terrible; it doesn’t [...]

I was mostly happy with the 405CX, although at times the bezel system was a bit irritating and the 8h battery life wasn’t quite enough for [...]
Or how I finally succumbed and joined Twitter. The primary motivation is to share philosophy news, blog posts, CFPs and so on, but it is likely that I will expand on that and cover all the topics that I do on the blog. Follow me here. And for those of you who don’t know where [...]
See the story here, or, if you know Finnish, you can go straight to here. I can report that the English story is accurate enough though. This seems like a sensible enough idea to me — I often use my Nokia E71 to browse the Internet via some random unsecured Wi-Fi, and it’s often impossible [...]
I have been using the Garmin Forerunner 405CX GPS-enabled sportswatch and heart rate monitor for about a month and a half now, so I thought it’s time to post a review. I got it mainly for running, and I think that it is essential gear for runners, but I’ve also used it on hill walks [...]
