iPad Therefore iAM

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff | Posted on 12-02-2010

I know I said I’d post my thoughts on the iPad at a later date, with today being one such later date, but I’ve been so busy playing silly games and buying ridiculously over-sized monitors that I haven’t had the time.

Google Chrome OS Source Code Released

“…and slowly, and surely, they drew their plans against us.”

It always seems like I blog on a Friday. Maybe that’s because people are winding down for the week and preparing for the work they’ll have to do come Monday, or maybe everyone’s just excited about the weekend. I know I am, but not for any particular reason.

Friday (Again!)

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff, Random | Posted on 13-11-2009

Yep, that’s right, it’s that tiome of the week again!

It’s been a strange week this week. Firstly, I’ve had to “babysit” some cats for a family member of mine. They went away to Florida last weekend and I’ve been lumbered with the task of looking after their animals for the next two weeks, so things have been a little upside-down and inside-out for me.

Another Tech Roundup

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff, Random, Technology | Posted on 05-11-2009

Morning all! I’m bored off my tits today, and seem to have no motivation to do anything much, so I decided to see what’s going on in the tech world right now, before I trundle off to this meeting a bit later on. And quite a lot is going on it seems…

iPhone Temptation

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff, Technology | Posted on 03-11-2009

I won’t lie, I’ve been tempted on more than one occasion to get an iPhone. Don’t get me wrong – I think it’s a complete waste of money… BUT it’s a pretty fun way to waste money. Legal, too.

An Easy Day

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff | Posted on 21-10-2009

At least, I hope it’ll be easy. The Big Cheese here at the office has decided to take a sick day, so I’m free to work at my own pace. Having said that, I’ve decided that Google Wave is pretty darned good.

Google Wave

Posted by | Posted in Geek Stuff, Technology | Posted on 19-10-2009

“Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!”

Got myself a Google Wave invite this morning. I have to admit, aside from the info you see posted all over the net, I know very little about it. I know that around 600,000 people have been invited to the preview so far, that it’s constantly a trending topic on Twitter, and that it’s basically a type of real-time collaboration software that includes email, IM and other bits and pieces.

Mid-Week Blues

Posted by | Posted in Entertainment, Geek Stuff, The 9-To-5 Droll | Posted on 30-09-2009

I’m in a bit of a bad mood this morning. Being late for work through no fault of my own is starting to piss me off as much as it probably pisses off the Powers That Be. Is it that hard to find a decent cab company these days? Disorganisation is the name of their game, baby!
