Open, 24 hours a day [Berlin]
till: This is so new and aids especially people who work weird hours/shifts - the first supermarket shifted its opening hours to all 24 hours of the day from last Monday. The store is a Reichelt and located at Berliner Straße 24 (Wilmersdorf). I think I’ll give it a try tonight, just to see if it is really true. Alas - it is not open seven days a week. In fact, the store will close...

Ä, Neukölln [Berlin]
till: If you didn’t know, there are bars and so on in Neukölln as well. Well, at least there is one - it’s called Ä and is located Fuldastraße/Weserstraße. Inside the place is pretty rough, some couches, nice atmosphere and literally packed later in the evening. A good excuse to go (and start drinking) early. ;-) By the way, aside from the usual beer mix (Berliner, Becks, ..) the...

More details on Yahoo!'s role in China
New documents suggest that apparently Yahoo! knew very well what Wang Xiaoning was investigated for. Those documents also tell that the data provided by Yahoo!’s office in Beijing was directly used as evidence to convict Wang. http://www.duihua.o… Read and post comments | Send to a friend (via till’s blog)

Fusssäure [Berlin]
till: Anscheinend spielt jemand mit Flusssäre in Berlin. Also nicht alles anfassen, was man so sieht. Seit Januar gab’s wohl (vorallem in U-Bahnhöfen) 40 Anschläge - in 2006 wohl 200. Wer macht denn sowas? Looks like someone has been using hydrofluoric acid around town in over 40 cases this year (2007). So don’t touch anything you see - especially on the subway. According to the...

FON Problems
So lately, the issues with my very social FON router have been taking over which is why I am a not so happy Fonero. 1) The #1 issue at hand is DNS. So many times Flickr fails for me because my Fonera (that’s the router called) relies on FON’s own… Read and post comments | Send to a friend (via till’s blog)

Banksy in Israel
Painting the Israeli West Bank wall: Old man: You paint the wall, you make it look beautiful. Banksy: Thanks. Old man: We don’t want it to be beautiful, we hate this wall, go home. From Banksy’s book Wall and Piece. [via] Read and post comments | Send to a friend (via till’s blog)

Knut to be a Bestseller [Berlin]
till: Today Yesterday, the zoo of Berlin released an autobiography of Knut for children describing his early youth. The designated ghostwriter is Craig Hatkoff. The first run includes 30,000 copies, a second - still in print - adds additional 15,000 copies to that. Yay. Oh yeah - sorry! And forget I wrote the book is for children. Since everyone reads Harry Potter nowadays, this book can be read...

Home.
Hmm., originally uploaded by illtillwillkillbill. Look at that. My mom just made a late dinner for me. A bunch of tastyness manifesting as slices of (dark) bread with cheese and jamon (ham) and a bunch of tomatoes. It’s good to be home. At… Read and post comments | Send to a friend (via till’s blog)

Harry Potter [Berlin]
till: The postman just rang the bell today and dropped off an Amazon package for a neighbour. So I ask him where those people live, he says… postman: “3rd or maybe 4th floor in the first building? No idea, but that’s the new ‘Harry Potter’ there.” till: “Harry Potter?” postman: “Yeah!” till: “Hmm, really?” postman: “Oh...

Bronco says! [Berlin]
till: “Graffiti is the power” - it makes more sense in English. And that’s probably where it comes from. In German, it has a touch of analphabetism and looks pretty weird. But this is just one of the pictures I took yesterday when we spent the day in 36 - if you are interested, check my Flickr. I’ll post more my favorites later on. Tags: berlin, graffiti Posted on...

Oberbaumbrücke [Berlin]
till: Oberbaumbrücke is a so called double deck bridge. Because there is a deck for cars and the subway up top. It was part of a wall built in 1732 which marked the city boundry (Berlin Brandenburg). The bridge served as a city gate back then. Today Oberbaumbrücke is inside the city of Berlin. The gothic towered bridge crosses the river Spree and interconnects the districts Kreuzberg and...
