Ulla and I are apartment-hunting on the cover of the October issue of Suomen Kuvalehti, which is like Time in the Finnish-speaking world. The story is about the possibility of a real-estate bubble. Ulla and I both expect prices to adjust slightly but think it’s unlikely that interest rates will shoot up drastically in the near future. We didn’t buy the apartment, and I don’t know any chords although I play guitar in the picture.

It’s crunch time with the PhD thesis (hence the pause with the blog). Nokia’s keeping me busy in the daytime so both ends of the candle are ablaze and in all honesty I don’t know how long I’ll be able to keep this up. The good news is I just finished Chapter 4. And had an entertaining dinner with Ben Hammersley. He’s going to speak on RSS tomorrow at Nokia House in the Speaker series organized by Stephen Johnston. If there, rush to attend. Ben and I will both also be speaking at Bloggforum in Stockholm on November 19th.
