I’m not a celebrity – get me out of here

Twitter – the latest buzz that is spreading like wildfire – but as with all things that are good, there are some flaws.
In short – You get a Twitter account. You look for people on Twitter whose 140 character “micro blogs” are interesting and “follow” them. People will follow you for the same reason. That’s [...]

Hang on lads – I have an idea…

I had an idea a few days ago and it sort of just bobbed around a bit. Through Twitter I have been having some interesting chats – followed a few links, de-bunked a few fake celebs and, well… having a laugh at Lings website…
The laugh turned into admiration when I realised what she had actually [...]

Lessons Learnt

WWW.LINGSCARS.COM is possibly the worst looking “professional” web site that I have ever seen.

It is mainly for car leasing – but it may also cause headaches, epileptic fits and nervous breakdowns due to its cacophony of links, plethora of adverts and myriad of colours all assaulting the person looking at the site….
The thing is, it [...]

OpenZine – The Blog Alternative

OpenZine is an alternative to blogging. It is an online open source magazine publishing site and host. It’s a free thing that I found through a contact on Twitter – the contact happens to be the co-founder of OpenZine (his name is Kiki, and here is his Zine)
Now I’ll be honest here, I wasn’t that [...]

A little horse

I took Alex for a drive up to see Chris at work. Lots of top class horses around. The one in the picture is called Sentana and he is lovely! Apparently around £50k and his father (Sandro Hit) is one of the top dressage horse in the World at the moment…. by ‘eck!

Alex had [...]

TwitterDeck, Twitterfon and Facebook Tweeting

So by now you’ll know that I use Twitter. It’s part of this blog (see the left hand column) and fast becoming the best way to communicate bullet points and sound bites of information by mobile phone and computer.
It is primarily a web based micro-blog texting system, but as with a lot of things today, [...]

First day in office

We’ve all been there…

Obama – X-Factor or Lady Thatcher?

What were you doing today?
The first day on a job is always a bit daunting – so imagine how you’d feel if several million people watched you as you start out in the position.

Yes, that’s right – today America welcomed in a new President. President Barack Obama gave a speech at his inauguration that sounded [...]

Colour me blogged

My blog has slowly turned into something other than what it was when it started. Does this mean I am finding my blog feet, or simply moving away from what it was intended to be in the first place?
A bit of both is the answer. Back when it was just close friends and family it [...]

Mr Tweet & Minesweeper – The Movie

Every now and then something on YouTube turns out to be genuinely funny – and not just some junk that some dope has mashed up with a low resolution camera phone.
Minesweeper – The Movie is one of those clips.
It was an odd stumbling that lead me to find the clip – one of those [...]
