I’ve been a Nintendo fan since the age of 2, with games like Super Mario World and Super Mario Land 2 as my very first games. And of course with the line of Nintendo games and consoles came a whole new type of music. A good chunk of these songs are 8-bit, which isn’t to everybody’s taste. Because so many good songs were made by Nintendo and 3rd party developers, I came with the idea to look for the 50 best. Again, this is my own opinion.

  1. Super Mario Galaxy – Buoy Base (Underwater)
  2. Mario Kart 64 – Credits
  3. Kirby’s Adventure – Orange Ocean
  4. Donkey Kong Country 2 – Stickerbrush Symphony

  6. Chrono Trigger – Wind Scene

  14. Kirby’s Dreamland 3 – Grass Land 4
  15. Super Mario Galaxy – Battlerock Galaxy

“Funny” joke (translated from Dutch)

While doing archeological research, Russian scientists have found the remains of copper wire 100 meters deep, with an estimated age of 1000 years. The Russians concluded that their ancestors already had a communication network a 1000 years ago!

In response to that, the Americans conducted their own research. At 200 meters deep, they found the remains of glass fiber cable. After research, they concluded that the wire is about 2000 years old. So the Americans had a very advanced network over 2000 years ago.

After the conclusion of the Americans, the Dutch also conducted their own research. At 500 meters, they found absolutely nothing! Their conclusion is that the Dutch had a wireless network over 5000 years ago!

A very silly joke, but it made me laugh!

Hello.

So you want to learn PHP and MySQL? That’s good. You can make fantastic interactive websites and webapplications with PHP (PHP Hypertext Preprocessor) and you can store, mutate, delete, request…. your data from a database with MySQL (My Structured Query Language). WordPress (the application with which I make this blog) is made with PHP and MySQL too, so you see you can make very advanced websites with it. If you want to know more details on PHP and MySQL, go to Wikipedia (Wikipedia is also made in PHP and MySQL btw). In these tutorial I’m going to explain the basics of PHP and MySQL. After these lessons you’re ready to make an own website. A basic knowledge of HTML is nice, since HTML is widely used in combination with PHP.

A few days ago, I found a funny little game on Android Market. You have to maneuver a snake through a cave. You control the snake by pushing the touch screen of your Android phone. If you push it, the snake will go up. If you relaese it, the snake will go down. But this isn’t easy! The snake has to take a route through a cave, but there are many obstacles. The cave also gets narrower every time.
