Hello dear family & friends,
we would like to introduce you to our latest project "Stitch" or better said experiment 'Tristan Kane Kirstätter'.
The little boy was born two days ago, 26.05.2010, at around 01:45 hours.
Some details about the visual appearance of him:
Weight - 2.9kg
Size - 54cm
Hair - long and dark
Eyes - most of the time closed
Pictures of him and his sister are already available at my online photo gallery at the following address:

The mum and the little boy are both in good and healthy conditions. We are looking forward to leave the clinic today.
In any way, thanks for your kind support.
Yours faithfully,
Mary Jane, Hayley & JoKi |

With a positive surprise I realized today that Google's Webmaster Tools had some minor overhauling and provide some more details than before. Most obvious are the changes on the dashboard where the Top Search Queries now provide information about impressions and clicktroughs instead of the rankings before. Only the links of the search expressions are missing.
It seems that the Top search queries were in the focus of this update. The section is now spiced with detailed graphs about what happened during selectable periods on your site. Well, seems that the Webmaster Tools mimic a stripped-down version of Google Analytics...
I was very pleased by the details that are offered when you click on a single query term. Really nice to see the search rankings and your responsible URLs at the same time. Before, you had to put two browser instances side-by-side to achieve this kind of overview.
Personally, I like the approach to visualize statistics the way Google or other providers do. It gives you a quick and informative overview, and enables you to dig further into details about peaks and lows on your visits, page impressions or clickthroughs.

One of the interesting aspects for a blogger might be to know where her/his readers are from. At least, this is something that I would like to know.
Technically, it is not a real problem as every visitor offers its IP address while accessing a website and usually those information and others - like user agent, browser capabilities, preferred languages, etc. - are logged by the web server. Running any kind of log analyzing software like AWStats, WebLog or utilizing external services like Google's Webmaster Tools visualizes that data to the interested site owner.
But what about some more transparency and on-the-spot-visualiztion? I mean, wouldn't it be nice to show your readers that they are not alone on your site? Well, lately I found exactly this kind of visualization on another website and from there I dropped at who's amung us. They offer an easy to use, customizable and free 'map widget' in JavaScript and Flash that can be integrated into a website. Actually, it took me more time to make up my mind about the UI properties than putting the resulting code into my blog site. Take a look here:
GeoLocation of 'Get Blogged by JoKi' reader.
Of course, the services of who's.amung.us only displays the locations the very moment you start using their widget. It would have been nice to provide existing web server logs for the initial setup. But, hey... it's a nice gimmick / gadget and it's for free!
Sincerely, JoKi |

Hm, not yet.
Well, we already know that members of my family come to stay at our place (for five and two weeks) but aside of this, we do not have any detailed plans on how to spend Christmas and New Year's Eve. But for sure, it will be my first Christmas ever at the beach. We already went shopping for tree and Christmas decorations last weekend.
In terms of business, well, I do not know, if there will be an End of Year party 2008. Currently, there are no plans - or at least I have no information about that. Maybe there will be a surprise... Who knows.
Kind regards, JoKi

Since a couple of days part of my family is here in Mauritius for holidays. Well, they stay for about four weeks and based on the fact that our next generation keeps us quite busy, it is really welcoming to have some members of the family around.
It is also quite interesting to see their reactions after roughly two weeks and that they already fear the near end of their stay. Well, I guess that are already 'infected by the Mauritius fever'... Who knows. Anyways, it will not be their last time here.
We are already 'booked' for December and January by another sister and her boyfriend for their second visit...
Well, well, it's good to see that both families get to know each other.
Sincerely, JoKi
