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.

Hmm. I was marginally stumped, when it came time to define the term Bakufu in an exam today — too much time spent studying for maths, I suppose — and so I wrote this, instead:
It’s like a Haiku,
for the less poetically inclined.
Minus the hyperlink, because paper doesn’t lend itself too well to such things. At least some poor marker will have a laugh, amidst 60 papers of the same thing, or however many there are.
In response to something written over at Dalegroup a few hours ago, a rant on multi-user blogging, and a proposition for consideration by many.
I agree with Dale, that this is a very interesting idea indeed. Most blogging tools support multiple users, although this is perhaps more for accountability in situations where these blogging tools are applied as a CMS-on-the-cheap than anything else…
There’d need to be some kind of theme, though. I think a SACS blog would be a great idea, just for kicks, if you guys weren’t all leaving in a weeks time. It’d be interesting to see multiple perspectives on the same events — Dracula-esque. Stoker always was into using every text-type imaginable, I’m sure he’d be keen on the blog idea, were it around at his time of writing. I suppose it’s just the evolution of a text form into a more public medium.
Here is a ridiculously stupid idea, which I’m hoping everyone will think is very cool, and act upon. Just for kicks. A HSC 2004 blog, in which anyone who is in Year 12, 2004, may become a member with posting capabilities, and publish their feelings, thoughts, and opinions not only on the exams themselves (although that is perhaps the object of most interest), but also in preparation and study during your Stuvac period, in the leadup to your exams.
I’d be interested in supporting this, if enough Year 12′s would be interested in participating. Let me know what you think…
I was amused to note another passenger on an outbound bus this afternoon jotting notes onto a Post It pad. Why? Because this pad of Post It notes sat adjacent to their Palm V-series handheld, which they were apparently using for other purposes at this time.
Usability? Erm… of course!
If in doubt, factorise!
But I can’t factorise!
Well… that’s a lie. I re-taught myself how to, for what must be the twentieth time, yesterday (or thereabouts).
So that’s a few free marks.
Halfway through a question.
Which I don’t possess the knowledge to commence.
Ooooh! My music, it’s clipping!
*wanders off to inanely fiddle with streams, playback, filters and miscellaneous other things for about half an hour*
I haven’t even touched coffee for well over three days now, and yet I’m as high as a kite. I’m convinced that chook was being fed hormones, with caffeine and guarana on the side!
