Never Judge a Book By Its Cover
by Iain on October 30, 2007
Penguin have re-covered a load of their books in the lovely ‘classic’ style covers. I was particularly inspired by ‘The World According to Clarkson’ re-badged as essays. Obligatory buttons:
Cliff Does a Radiohead
by Iain on October 30, 2007
From The Times today – link to online version of the story. So Cliff is taking 1p off the price of his new album for every person that pre-orders (down to a minimum of £3.99) – the starting price is (…)

by Iain on October 26, 2007
There’s been mutterings of recyou.jp around for a few days. It’s a very slick Japanese flash site for Sony Walkman. It’s quite hard to navigate your way through it, I managed by trial and error rather than a knowledge of (…)

by Iain on October 26, 2007
I wasn’t going to post this as it’s not all that enlightening. It’s from a few months ago and is Eric Schmidt (Google CEO) talking about web 3.0 as a bunch of lightweight free distributable micro applications / services. Which (…)
