Weather in Vienna

We find the site wetter.at the most reliable and useful site for weather in Vienna.
They have a long term forecase and detaild forecast for the next 24 hours. Weather prediction is never precise but this guys are certainly better than the global CNN and Yahoo weather forecasts.

Taxi to/from Vienna airport

The best way to get from the airport is with a pre-ordered Taxi.
I love AirportDriver: They wait for you with a sign with your name when you exit the airport, they are very reliable and they are not expensive (in fact, the cheapest I know). They have a fix price for all destinations in Vienna that is currently €28. And they speak English.

What is this blog about?

Living in Vienna, Austria for the last 3 years, I gathered some tips which are of interest mainly for expatriots who are moving here and need quick references to some basic things that will certainly will make their lives easier.
It began as a list of reommendations sent by email to friends, but now I feel it is time to make it iternal on the web.
Please feel free to comment and to add tips as much as possible. I don't have a problem giving others the chance to post here themselves. Contact me for details.
