Digital meets analogue, online meets offline
As the offline/analogue and online/digital worlds start to blend even more, I thought I’d share some favourite stuff I’ve been tagging over the past few months. I love this stuff and am really excited about the web weaving its way into more and more stuff.
Google Earth meets a 60ft Phallus.
Blogging meets a blackboard and [...]

Just be “human” (and be nice)
Think of people you like. What characteristics to they have? I bet they are kind, considerate, funny, sharing, trustworthy, respectful, appreciative, honest, caring, genuine, warm, friendly, approachable etc. They listen to you. They speak to you when you speak to them. They respond to feedback. They don’t shout at you. They respect your time. They [...]

It’s all about the data
Hello and Happy New Year. I am now back online after a nice refreshing break from the interwebz. Well almost, kind of in an iPhone kind of way. Anyway, like everyone else, I have a gazillion of things that I’d love to do this year, lots of thoughts on what might be in store for [...]

Feeding my Delicious habit
Today I saved my 5,000th link on Delicious. That means I’ve invested 13 hours and 45 minutes in Delicious, or thereabouts (I reckon using some fairly crude calculations on 10 seconds per save, allowing for some tag management and re-saves).

Nerdcore Rising
I’m pretty late to this but I’ve just finished watching Nerdcore Rising. Amazingly cool, genuine, funny collection of people and a great insight into the genre’s growth in the US. Hot Chip, Hedluv . . . we have our own hugely popular homegrown stuff too. I can’t wait until all this celebrity stuff finally goes [...]
