Tools used - Tól sem notuð eru

Today I use HtmlEd32 editor designing the web pages, its a simple text editor with html menu/toolbar shortcuts. I also use some additional tools at complex operations and would like to mention a good tool called ActiveX Control pad from Microsoft, its expecially handy designing with ActiveX and VbScript. Then I use some graphic programs processing pictures, like Microsoft Photo editor, a part of Office, and Photofiltre, a good free graphic program. IrfanView is a small and handy program, to view pictures, create thumbnails and more. Bookmark wizard is a good program that can read Favorites and save it to html document. Bulk rename utility is a good tool for renaming lot of files.
Í dag nota ég HtmlEd32 editor við að hanna síðurnar, texta editor með html flýtileiðum. Einnig nota ég ýmis hjálpartól við flóknari aðgerðir og vil ég helst nefna skemmtilegt tól sem nefnist ActiveX Control Pad og er frá Microsoft, það er sérstaklega hentugt til að hanna ActiveX og VBscript. Þá hef ég notað ýmis grafik forrit við vinnslu mynda eins og Microsoft Photo Editor sem fylgir með Office pakkanum og Photofiltre, gott grafíkforrit af netinu. Ennfremur nota ég IrfanView, lítið og handhægt forrit, til að skoða myndir, búa til thumbnails o.fl. Þá nota ég líka Bookmark wizard, hentugt forrit sem getur lesið Favorites og vistað sem html skrá. Þá er Bulk rename utility hentugt til að breyta nöfnum á mörgum skrám í einu.

Later in jul. 2008 - I have managed to set up my own domain. Flakkari is a icelandic word and means someone who travels a lot without a goal, not meaning I travel without planning but travel without means. It also means a portable hard disk which suits well for my computer enthusiasm. The biggest problem have been to find a good name for this site. But stumbling onto flakkari sounded nice, it is easy both in icelandic and english. I initially wanted to have a icelandic domain, like .is, but soon found it too expensive compared to other domains, which is sad.
08. jul. 2008 - Centrum had moved to Síminn (Icelandic telecom) and service declined. Visibility was small and possibility of increasing the page was expensive. I started to look around and a friend recommended Siteground. They offered good space at reasonable price and a own domain. The main problem was that .is was not possible. But I took the change and founded flakkari.net at Siteground, where the page is today.
08. júl. 2008 - Centrum fluttist yfir til Símans og þjónustu hrakaði stöðugt. Sýnileiki var lítill og lítill möguleiki á stækkun nema með miklum kostnaði. Ég fór að líta í kringum mig og var bent á Siteground af kunningja. Þeir buðu upp á nóg pláss á hagstæðu verði og eigin domain. Aðal gallinn var að ekki var .is í boði. Ég sló samt til og stofnaði flakkari.net, þar sem síðan er í dag.

may/jun. 1998 - Page history is started, only in icelandic. Pictures added to computerpage and number of frames reduced, koala bear got hidden links with VbScript. Some pictures corrected that were in too big frame.
mai/jún. 1998 - Saga síðunnar hefur göngu sína. Bætt inn myndum á tölvusíðu og römmum fækkað, koala björn fær felutengingar með VBscript. Lagfærðar nokkrar myndir sem voru í of stórum ramma
19. may 1998 - Public appearance of the web. Then if you knew the address you could access the web publicly. It was hosted at Midheimar/Centrum as khr (www.centrum.is/~khr).
19. maí 1998 - Opinber birting síðunnar Þá var hægt að nálgast hana ef menn vissu slóðina. Þá var hún vistuð hjá Miðheimum/Centrum undir khr.
apr. 1998 - Then I started thinking of refreshing the web a little. And as I finally increased some part of my computer I also bought a 14,4 kbps modem and got an access to the internet from home.
apr. 1998 - Þá fór ég að spá í að hressa upp á síðuna. Og lét ég verða að því um leið og ég stækkaði aðra hluta tölvunnar að eitt módem fylgdi með í kaupunum, og auðvitað aðgangur að neti.

Used at work - Notkun vegna vinnu

When I was working at Research liasion office I developed the page further, mostly by increasing links related to computers and work. Same development continued working for Landsbanki (National bank of Iceland). I used to travel a lot and it was good to have access to links central. The web was usually set up on computer accessible from local web. But there were always desire to have own access. From that on I start to think of showing the web to public.
Er ég var að vinna hjá Rannsóknarþjónustu Háskólans þróaði ég síðuna áfram, aðallega með að fjölga linkum tengdum tölvu og vinnu. Sama þróun hélt áfram þegar ég var hjá Landsbankanum. Maður var oft mikið á ferðinni og gott að hafa aðgang að linkum miðlægt. Síðan var því yfirleitt vistuð á tölvu sem aðgangur var á innraneti. En það var alltaf löngun í að vera með eigin link. Út frá því fór ég að huga því að birta síðuna opinberlega.

School experiments - Tilraunir í skóla

Initially I started with a web page in school, when I was in TVÍ (Computer college of Icelandic Business school, now Reykjavik university) it has been around the year 1995. There I set up a web page that in fact were just favorites. There was one course about html programming and there we wrote a cgi script to accept request from html page and show reply.
Upphaflega byrjaði ég með síðu í skólanum er ég var í TVÍ (Tölvuháskóli Verslunarskóla Íslands, núna Háskólinn Reykjavík) það hefur verið um 1995. Maður setti náttúrlega saman síðu sem var í raun bara favorites. Síðan var einn kúrs um html forritun og þar skrifuðum við cgi forrit til að taka við beiðni frá html síðu og birta svar.
