So today was a day with approx. 9h of sun, at least half of which I was able to enjoy outside. My plan was to look for crocuses and what did I find next to the park of Naturkundemuseum / Kleingartenanlage Fredenbaum 🙂 In the end I was at

Today I used the sunny weather and visited Rombergpark with a friend 🙂 The greenhouses are definitively worth a visit (€ 2,- admission). The sunset photos are taken in Dortmund main station.

I’m still sick but the best healing for the physical weakness I feel seem to be long walks. Today I’ve been “An den Teichen”. Also I took the chance to take some selfies, as I still don’t know how to trim the beard and guess after I gave it a try it’ll look different ;).

Although in the end I forgot my “real” camera at home finally I could follow the plan I originally had for last weekend, finding snowdrops (nice German word “Schneeglöckchen”) to see how nature is “fighting” winter. I saw some in Westfalenpark, but most have been in Rombergpark. I should have remembered from last year ;).

And during the afternoon I went to Fredenbaumpark, later to an appointment in the city centre, and really was surprised by the Karnvevalskirmes:

Today my lunch break walk was quite late so I could capture the sunset behind the clouds:

So I woke up this morning and everything was white, I had to leave the house early but my “breakfast date” was quite late (45 minutes to be exactly) so I had plenty of time to take some pictures 😉

There was some snow yesterday so when I today was in Westpark with CouchSurfing friends there still was some left. Those are not black/white photograpies! 😉

So, for everyone except Apple iPhone/iOS users, WhatsApp has announcedWhatsApp Web which enables you to chat with your WhatsApp contacts on the PC. This is included at least in WhatsApp version 2.11.498 on Android. Also it requires Google Chrome on the desktop.
It’s basically a web-based extension to the app running on the smartphone. The smartphone still has to be on-line, messages/chats are just mirrored. To activate, open WhatsApp Web in Google Chrome, then open WhatsApp on your phone and select “WhatsApp Web” from the menu (globe symbol) to scan the generated QR-code and thus connect your phone account to the web application.
I couldn’t try it yet, on my mobile there’s the “OK, got it” missing, my screen is too small:
Switching to languages with shorter words (for example Mandarin) didn’t help, although it was an interesting experience. 😉
UPDATE: In Version 2.11.505 (Android) this was fixed:
So this is what it looks like:
—
WhatsApp hat für alle möglichen Smartphone-Plattformen außer Apple iPhone/iOs WhatsApp Webangekündigt. Damit kann man dann am PC mit seinen WhatsApp Kontakten chatten. Zumindest ab Version 2.11.498 auf Android ist die Funktion enthalten. Auf dem Desktop wird Google Chrome benötigt.
Letztendlich ist es eine web-basierte Erweiterung zur Smartphone-App. Das Smartphone muß immer noch online sein, die Nachrichten und Chats werden nur gespiegelt. Um es zu aktivieren muß WhatsApp Web in Google Chrome geöffnet werden, dann WhatsApp auf dem Handy öffnen und “WhatsApp Web” (Globus-Symbol) auswählen. Dort den angezeigten QR-Code scannen, um das Telefon mit der Web-Anwendung zu verbinden.
Ich konnte es noch nicht ausprobieren, auf meinem Handy kann ich die Animation zum Scannen des QR-Codes nicht wegdrücken, der Bildschirm ist zu klein. Auch der Wechsel zu einer Sprache mit kürzeren Wörtern (Mandarin z.B.) hat nichts gebracht, war aber eine interessante Erfahrung ;).
UPDATE: In Version 2.11.505 (Android) wurde der Fehler behoben (Bilder s.o.)
