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.

I’ve now joined the tribe of pointless-be-everywhere instant messenging. I only plan on using it when I’ve got 802.11 coverage, because I’m so not paying whatever GPRS rates are for it! Still, all good fun for a couple of days. Then I’ll be asking myself what possessed me to buy such a monstrosity. Ah well.
Addendum: Just checked the cost… apparently it’s $0.20c/minute. I’ve very rarely, if ever, had a conversation on MSN that good. Or at least, not so good that it couldn’t be supplanted by an even quicker/more effective phonecall.

Looked pretty nuts and must have wreaked havoc for city-bound traffic. There’s a Jeep that was on its side behind that white car… two ambulances (both empty, fortunately!) and a firetruck, and an unmarked + a marked police car. One of the fireies was taking snaps on his camera phone but I wasn’t that game, so this is the best I’ve got. It’s still a cool photo I think.

Summer shadows are hazy, easily forgot. Winter’s are chiselled out, or graven with a perfectly-formed knife.
People are the only exception.
Taken whilst walking the dog. No time for technical perfection. Minimal editing.

Or geeks, whatever works.
