28 Days Later
February coming to a close means I can conclude my month long challenge to post to this blog each day. Having only written 14 entries, it’s a challenge for which I only half succeeded.
February 2009
An Apple by Any Other Name
Earlier this month I wrote about my love of organisation and systems. One such example is how I name the devices I attach to my Mac.
A Bomb in Littlehampton?
On Friday evening I got a call from Jon on his way back to the house after a night out, asking if I had heard anything about a bomb found near Littlehampton station.
An Inconvenient Update
In what has become something of a rarity, I sat down in front of the television yesterday evening. Upon turning on the set-top box, I was greeted with an interesting message.
Simply Walsall
In the last few years, two public organisations in Walsall have undergone renewals, and both have choosen to reflect this change with simpler identities.
Wordle
A word cloud generated from content that has appeared on my site over the last few months.
Important Things
One of my favourite comedians stars in a new show starting on Comedy Central this week.
The Multipack Presents…
Every year the Multipack – a community of web developers based in the Midlands – seems to undergo a renewal, finding confidence to try new things. This year is no different.
Christian Bale Rant: Batman Edition
I’ve not been able to get enough of Christian Bale’s recent rant on the set of Terminator 4, yet sadly there has only been audio available for this moment of madness.
Luckily, Joe Butcher has created this brilliant animated accompaniment, which sees Bale in his celebrated role as Batman, shouting at his sidekick Robin. If you haven’t heard the rant yet, be warned that it contains explicit content. Via @cyberdees
SFO/LHR
Today was largely taken up by a flight back to London from San Francisco, where I spent the last ten days.
Entry Archives, Grouped by Month in Movable Type
I have been using Movable Type for a number of years, yet the template code required to present an archived list of entries, grouped by month has always evaded me.
Driven to Design
In a recent conversation with a client, he asked why I got into design. Its something I’ve been meaning to write about for sometime, so I’ll try to publish my answer here.
That’s Not My Name!
As I approach the end of my latest trip to America, I continue to fight the losing battle that is getting people to understand me when I say my first name.
28 Days
With January over, and having completed the month without drinking coffee, so on to February and a far more ambitious challenge.
