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.

It’d been discussed before, so I made this and posted here… just because I could. Thoughts, comments, feedback all welcome. I love this period of design! Can’t decide if the original of this design was 40′s or 50′s, though. Oh, yeah, the original read “Toasted Corn Flakes” just for the record!!
It’s been two weeks today since we moved into the new house. Just thought I’d say that. No, the IT situation isn’t loads better, but I’m working on it. Between assessments and other stuff.
If this stupid HP thing would play nice with hpoj and FreeBSD, I’d be sweet (well, you know, still gotta learn OpenLDAP and the rest of it, but sweeter), but of course that’s not likely to happen in a hurry. I’ve decided if it still isn’t working by this weekend I’m going to revert to trying with Parallel cables. Tis a sad day indeed.
In other news, the Commander system has been working okay, but there are more than a handful of moments of frustration when trying to get other devices to play nice on the system (e.g. not sanctioned HX308 phones), so for the moment we’ve installed a cordless handset in parallel to the Commander system (that is, not on a system port) — that means it’s out of reach of the rest of the PBX, but at least it can make phone calls (which is good, seeing it’s cordless and the HX308 things all aren’t). Some issues with line noise, but then the cordless thing is currently connected by a socket hanging out of a wall connected in about 30 seconds by yours truely. Oh, and if you’re from Austel, I just made all that up.
Those who frown upon public displays of affection look away :P
Nah, commercialisation and American influnce hasn’t triumphed, it’s just that it’s as good an excuse as any other to say “I love you” to someone who I love!
I LOVE YOU, TORI!!!
The rest of the Internet may ignore this message.
Kristen’s somewhat irate about the incessant misuse of the abbreviation “LOL” in electronic communication (well… supposedly only electronic communication… yeah, I’ve used it IRL occasionally… enough about that!), so she went and posted all about the potential evil of lol. Compulsory reading if you’re a regular “LOL” user/abuser!
Ben’s just posted about it, so I figure the leadership team are okay with it being released to the world — Our school leadership team of 2005 are taking a metaphor to extremes, with our very own Naked Chef, amongst other things.
It’s available for download from Ben’s site, but for faster downloads grab it from this mirror today.

SACS students, Andrew Garrett will be fulfilling his promise of singing in about two weeks time!
