SchrEck Inc.

I Survived Single Sign-on

SchrEck Enterprises, Inc. is a fake company that was founded in 1982 by Christian Schröder and Henning Eckebrecht (hence the name). Up to this date, SchrEck Inc. unfortunately failed to gain national and international significance and to generate any income for its owners.


SchrEck Inc.'s favourite subbings

Inspired by the Have You Missed? feature on the h2g2 front page, I've decided to list a few of the subbed1 entries that I liked best.

Have fun!


Publications so far on h2g2

In order not to get confused by subbed guide entries here's a short list2 of all published articles.

Borstel, Germany
The GOTO Statement (edited)
Aquavit (edited), but see also the original entry, as there were major changes during the editing process.
Turbo Pascal (edited)
COBOL - The Programming Language (edited)
Syke, Lower Saxony, Germany (edited)
The Schaffermahlzeit, Bremen, Germany (edited)
Amstrad CPC Home Computers (edited)
Elite Price List
'One, Two, Three' - the Film (edited)
The Hitler Diary Hoax and 'Schtonk' - the Film (edited)
The German Federal States (edited)

The following are collaborate entries stemming from the late This Week's Topic:

Handy Gardening Tips: see the section on watering the garden.
Tips for Saving Money: an unfortunately rather small part of the posting on End of Season Sales has been used in the respective section.
Ten Minute Meals: see the recipe for the fabulous northern Germany snack Strammer Max.
Essential Items to Take on Holiday: a very small part of the Shoes contribution has been used.
April Fool's Day: see the famous c't April Fool's joke.
How to Plan a Dinner Party: have a look at the Planning section.
Healthy Snacks: the recipe for a Potato Snack has been included.
Best Student Jobs: have a look at the 'Research' section.
Mnemonics and Other Learning Devices: if you ever wanted to recap the planets of the solar system, there's a German mnemonic for it.
Great International Breakfast Dishes: some really, really small comments on the German and French breakfast.
Planning a Surprise Party3: a few small anecdotes from surprise parties I once attended.

Subbing Stats Update #3

Now that I'm back from holiday, I could proudly announce that SchrEck Subbing, Inc. has returned its 400th subbed entry on 16 June, 2006. It took about 5.1675 days per entry, and it also means that about 5.08% of all entries in the Edited Guide have been subbed by SchrEck Inc. cool
