It looks amazing! Makes me really anticipating my holidays in the north

You should be able to get some awesome pictures. Just keep in mind that:

1. It gets dark very early you might get 3-4 hours of 'sun light' depending on where you are on your journey and when you go.
2. The sun doesn't really 'rise' at this time of year up there. It's more like a glow on the horizon in the far north.

I'll see if I can find one of our pics from Rovaniemi.

I have never experienced this before and I'm really looking forward to it! Maybe I should write a diary, note when the sun goes up and down the further I progress to the north.

Maybe I'll buy a new camera. I have to check mine, I realized after my last holidays that one side of the picture always was a little blurry. Maybe it was dirt on the lens, if not it might be time to get a new camera.

Spamming the forum to get as many posts as I have shouldn't either ;-)

Edit: Many not much, posts are countable.

i don't spam.. I enhance the forums

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

I just kicked over to our news site, which usually I just read the articles and move on. But on the European Commission clears deal between Microsoft and Nokia, purchase moves forward | Windows Phone Central article, there were some interesting comments, including dozens of members calling out a "DJCBS" member which is apparently not a big fan of the purchase.

I understand the world of posting, and that blogs can get nasty from time to time. It is why I avoid "Reddit" like a dirty truckstop bathroom. Something as industry changing as MS buying the Nokia hardware division is bound to stir up bitter feelings, especially after all the "Elop is a Trojan Horse" debates of the last 4 years. I am willing to accept some arguments and "end of days" style rants from as big as that.

I just hope our forums do not spiral to name calling and calling out individual members as our OS grows in popularity and this site adds more members. I like our community. Heck, we can even disagree and still have fun with it right now. (For instance, all you people who continue to see cake as more important of a product then fresh baked pies. I love all you all, despite your amazingly foolish food stance.)

Just would bum me out if one evening I was cruising WPC and realized it wasn't fun anymore.

you forgot ...tri...tip :crying:

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

I actually agree with him.

A nice, fresh, buko pie is the pinnacle of the pasalubongs from Laguna and Batangas.
And apple pie? Yes please.
And, technically, pizza is pie.

If you excuse me, I'll be having some pie.

you also forgot tri-tip :crying::crying:

Blasphemy!

Thou hast befouled this thread with words that thou shall not utter! Ye hast defiled the name of the one and true holy. That which is made of cream cheese and can withstand the fires of hell itself! Hailing from a sinful place known by it's initials NY there is but one and only one true dessert... NY style cheesecake!

Behold it's glory! It's divine essence! Seek ye not to befoul such beauty again!

say what o.o now

Vevo is music videos, viemo isn't very popular, and sony video and netflix are services. YouTube has from education videos to comedy videos to tech videos.
