I have been able to acquire a summer scholarship for a student to work on a minifigure classification software. You get to spend a productive summer (November-February) in the beautiful New Zealand to work on this project. You can find out more about this great opportunity at this address:

Read the catalog on an iPad

The amazing palais has figured out a way to display the eBook on an iPad. Here are the instructions:

First download Adobe Digital Edition (ADE) to your local computer.
Now create an Adobe Account on the Adobe website. You can sign in at pretty much any of their pages. Look for the “sign in” at the top right.

Authorize your local copy of ADE using your account details. Got to Library -> Authorize Computer…

Now download the Bluefire Reader for iPad from the App store.
Also authorise Bluefire with your Adobe Account details. You can change the authorization later in the Info tab.
Now you can download the eBook from Lulu to your local computer.
You need to transfer the eBook onto the iPad now. Open the Apps tab in iTunes when the iPad is connected, and select Bluefire and ‘add’. You will find the actual file in MacintoshHD/Users/”Your user acct”/Documents/Digital Editions/The_Unofficial_LEGO_Minifigure_Catalog.pdf

You now need to Sync your iPad with the computer.
When you open Bluefire on your iPad will find the eBook in your library and you should be able to read it!

Would you like to write a review?

It would be great if some of you could write a review about the catalog on Amazon.com, so that other LEGO fans know what they are going to get.

Book available for purchase at Amazon.com

Old Photograph at LEGO

While going through some old photographs I came across this memory. Me posing on top of some bricks in what must have been 1997. Ahhh, those memories…

Book listed at Amazon.com

The book is now listed at Amazon.com. It is not yet possible to purchase it, but that is just a matter of days.

eBook Available

Some readers may prefer to have an electronic version of the book. It allows you to use search, bookmark and annotate content. The electronic distribution also makes the production of the book cheaper and hence the book can be sold at a better price. I created a PDF version of the book and it is now available for ordering from Lulu. Please notice that it is an Adobe Digital Edition PDF file. You need the free Adobe Digital Edition software to read the book on your OS X or Windows computer.
