Interesting 2007 – My Thoughts
My review: Interesting2007 = FunTed 350 smart blogger types in a room watching some of the best (and most random) presentations I’ve ever seen. Whatever I say or show, someone else is going to do it better. Best places to look for more…
Trains and Bikes
Inside the brain of a rail company… Right, there’s this massive cycle ride from London to Brighton, we’ve known about it for ages, it happens every year. What should we do about it? Hmmm… Loads of cyclists are going to ride a long way from…
Brain Training – Success!
This made me laugh out loud
http://www.danieleatock.com/project/alarm-dance-3/ is my favourite, but make sure you watch them all. And you ought to read the description here that made me giggle too. In fact look at everything on Daniel Eatock’s site, it’s ruddy great.…
I do like Vimeo!
Following my post about 20 seconds ago asking if I liked Vimeo I got a comment from Jacko from Vimeo. He doesn’t sound very angry at all. And he had a problem with Quicktime, so I guess he can say that. I had a problem with Virgin Media…
The Slowternet
I’ve been using a ‘high-speed’ Internet connection in a Romanian hotel. Thing is, it’s not really high-speed at all. I hadn’t realised just how much I take broadband (at decent speed) for granted. I’ve been trying to think of a good way to…

The 2012 Mashup Olympics
Thanks Cookie. Update: Weds 13th – the video is ‘unavailable’. “This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Limited”. They aren’t liking mashups then
I Got An Ecard!
An ecard from a scammer. Don’t you think it’s a bit grim to use an ecard with jolly balloons on it to tell me that someone has just died, along with his wife and kids in a bomb. But I guess I am going to be $7,500,000.00 Million richer, so…
Loop Festival Brighton
A celebration of Digital Culture they say – I reckon some crappy music coming out of laptops and a knackered old projector that no-one can see properly in the sunlight. Actually I reckon it’s going to be rather good. Some of the musical…
Back From Holiday!
Had a lovely holiday. Nice quiet island in Greece. Sleeping lots. Just taking it very easy. Lovely. Photo below is from a lovely little restaurant in a nearby village. The slightly bonkers chef was parading round this creation proclaiming…
