Oh, and there is an ice hotel in Canada too. [tags: hotel ice]
Ice hotel
The Swedish ice hotel seems pretty cool (no pun intended), and is a lot cheaper than I expected. Mental note -- if I ever end up in Sweden looking at the Northern Lights, then I should stay here. [tags: ice hotel]
Penguins can be gay?
Trying to get three gay penguin couples back on the straight and narrow, zoo officials in the northern German town of Bremerhaven hoped Swedish penguin ladies would do the trick. So far, there's been no success. [tags: penguin] [icbm: home]
AUUG 2005 Call for papers closes soon
The AUUG 2005 call for papers closes in a week. Have you put your paper proposal in yet? AUUG is an interesting conference in that it's smaller and more personal than linux.conf.au, and aimed at a corporate world where proprietary software is still a reality. [tags: unix conference] [icbm: work]

Pngtools 0.3 released
On the suggestion of Sven from the Gimp project I have added offset display to the features of pnginfo. It's bundled in the 0.3 release. A historical note from November 2020: this code is quite old, but still actively used. I have therefore converted the old subversion repository to git and it is hosted at https://github.com/mikalstill/pngtools. I will monitor there for issues and patches and try my best to remember what I was thinking 20 years ago...
