I’ve delivered simple, clear and easy-to-use services for 20 years, for startups, scaleups and government. I write about the nerdy bits here.

Four things

It’s Matthom’s fault.

Four jobs I have had

  1. IT support/troubleshooting guy
  2. Westfield Christmas decorations assembler at some signage place
  3. Web… something. Designer/markup guru/accessibility consultant/CSS wizard/JavaScript mangler extraordinaire. That’s really a job title.
  4. I’m all out, I think. Can I do “Three things” instead?

Four movies I can watch over and over again

  1. The Matrix (and ONLY the Matrix, not :Reloaded or :Revolutions, because they sucked bigtime)
  2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
  3. Underworld :D If anyone (in Sydney) wants to go see the sequel sometime let me know…
  4. Ice Age

Four places I have lived

  1. Lat: 33:54:24S (-33.9067) Lon: 151:13:01E (151.2169)
  2. Lat: 33:54:44S (-33.9122) Lon: 151:12:50E (151.2139)
  3. Lat: 33:54:23S (-33.9063) Lon: 151:13:30E (151.2249)
  4. Lat: 33:55:09S (-33.9190) Lon: 151:14:14E (151.2373)

Four TV shows I love

  1. Um. Wrong person. I’m going to tag Steve at the end of this post, which should be most amusing. Hopefully he’ll name a podcast instead!

Four places I’ve vacationed

  1. New Zealand
  2. A boat. A big boat.
  3. Mansfield, VIC
  4. Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest, NSW :)

Four of my favorite dishes

  1. I hate this question.
  2. I can’t even choose food in a restaurant, from a menu.
  3. Let alone with out any guidance in some forever-bounced-around-the-blogosphere meme.
  4. This is my answer. My favourite dish is indecision.

Four sites I visit daily

  1. Google. Duh.
  2. Quirksmode, but rarely not-through Google.
  3. My comment-spam moderation page :-/
  4. whisper.joahua.com, for music playback. I’ll post about this sometime.

Four places I would rather be right now

This isn’t really a valid question seeing I’m doing this on a weekend. Not fair.

  1. Bed.
  2. Floating in a pool somewhere. Not normally me, but for some reason that has enormous appeal right now.
  3. On a couch, reading a book (without thinking “I’ve got so much other stuff to do! I haven’t got time to read!”)
  4. Making engaging rich media for the web. Scheduled for later today. One of several exciting things coming soon!

Four bloggers I’m tagging

  1. Steve
  2. Ben
  3. LTTD, mostly because I want to see how a collective weblog would deal with this whole… blogging equivalent of chain-mail thing.
  4. I can’t think of anyone else (who hasn’t already been tagged/done it) I’d want to inflict this on :P

This is interesting, because I once completely shunned that whole ‘e-mail survey’ thing, but now recognise it as a not-entirely-neccessary not-entirely-evil neccessary evil. Having said that, still not a huge fan :P
