At midnight our internet access provided by Alltele stopped working and about six minutes later the new service from Bygdsiljum First kicked in. It would have taken longer but I wanted to test the speed so I rebooted the router.
The service is also not getting delivered by Bygdsiljum First, but T3 (for data) and Skelleftea Kraft (for cable) - but I think you know what I mean. The service is called Bygdsiljum First powered by T3.

In 2008, we had an earthquake that measured 2.46 on the Richter magnitude scale and the one we just had, I'd say, was about the same.
I say 'just had', because it happened about 10 minutes ago. I couldn't post as I was watching the World Cup match between Brazil and North Korea and that was more interesting.
I've had my Google phone for about a month now and when it arrived, like with all new things, you tend to play with it a lot and eventually it just fits into the place and reason why you bought it. Not the Nexus One - I'm still playing and it's getting a battering.
To say I'm pleased with the phone would be an understatement and I'm not sure why exactly. Is it because it is manufactured by HTC, or is it the super fast processor or is it Android 2.1 - the latest operating system from Google?
The Google car has visited Bygdsiljum and you can now drive down one road and to the top of the ski-hill, minus the snow.
You don´t actually get to see much in Bygdsiljum and Google has pretty much missed most, but it´s still pretty cool that you can have a little look. Maybe, in time they will come back.
I've come very close to getting myself an iPhone but I've never committed when it came to committing and I put that down to my relationship with Apple. You see, it costs a lot less to buy an Apple in England than it does in Sweden.

Just visited a Google employee blog and read in the comments that there was a countdown on the homepage, if you click on the I'm feeling Lucky tab without entering a search query. So I had to have a look but it doesn't work at Google Sweden only Google UK or from what I can see, English speaking Google sites.

When it is summer, I´m looking forward to winter and when it´s winter I look forward to summer. Today, I was told our local cafe is now closing at 6pm instead of the 8pm it does in the summer. Summer is over.
But that doesn´t mean winter is here or that it´s freezing cold or that we will have snow next week, but it is coming and I´m not looking forward to it too much now.
