We had a great time over at Lotta and Toms this midsummers, Aron learned some great things as well, how to administer a proper kiss, and he also took his first steps! Here are some photos from our new camera.
The Times have just made available the mother of all archives. Every article between 1785-1985 is present, and searcheable. Absolutely fantastic. As a very small example on how useful this is, In an article in a Swedish magazine I am reading that historians have found new data on the early life of writer Ian Fleming. This is a real treasure and The Times are really showing what an internet archive can be.

Here follows some articles from a simple search on “Gumucio”
And another one
As you can see this is a historians dream come true, please let me know what you find in your searches!
This blog and the gumucio.com domain now lives on my own server-space. Mail users can relax, the ride is over 
The director of Robocop and Starship Troopers returns home and makes the most expensive Dutch movie to date. It shows the second world war from the Dutch perspective. A young jew woman escapes the war and agrees to inflitrate the Dutch Nazi command on behalf of the Dutch resitance movement. This should have been nominated for the Oscar in 2007, Swedish viewers may note that one of the protagonists bears a striking resemlance to Kapten Stofil.
I was in total despair before seeing this. It has been ages since i saw a good movie, and there seemed to have been not even one interesting release lately! New Indiana Jones?? What more proof do you need that Hollywood is desperate.. So as a complete fresh breath of air i spot In Bruges. Its from Focus Features and like everything else they touch its pure gold. Two professional hitmen are ordered to Bruges to lay low for a while after a job that went wrong in London. Unfortunately they are not really good at laying low, and did their boss really send them all the way to Brügge just to hide? A very strong movie, a must see.
Please write down the adress of the new blog: http://martin.gumucio.com Well ok, the address is the one thing that stays the same, but the rest is about to change!
wordpress.com has been a very good free blog host for the years i have had my blog here. As I see it they stand head and shoulders above the competition. Sadly I am feeling that the new version of wordpress that was released a while ago has not been rolled out smoothly, and frankly. Its 2008, when I can’t publish pictures to my own blog in a civilized manner, there is something wrong, and the gallery function has now been broken here for 3 weeks.
So buh bye wordpress.com, and hello self-hosted wordpress installation at dreamhost. We’ll see how it works, i know i have some readers that aren’t huge Dreamhost fans..
As I am writing this, the domain transfer request is already made. So according to my new host in 7 to 10 days (but really anytime in the next hours) this blog will be reborn…
See you on the other side!
(Note to gumucio.com users: The whole gumucio.com domain is being transferred, there may be a slight interruption in mail and related services. See http://start.gumucio.com for details)
Here are some long overdue pictures of the little one in action. Every month brings new changes and its amazing to see him learn new things and piece together how the world works. He can walk now, if he has support, on his own he crawls with lightning speed around the flat. If he is outdoors, contant vigilance is neccesary, as he can make his move in a split second, get away fast, and even turns corners of buildings without looking back a single time..
So here are some pictures. This is Aron at his 1 year party. Attending are Aron, Arons parents, uncle and aunt, and grandparents on both sides.
Microsoft demonstrating how in touch they are with the modern world..
