Sunday, January 14th, 2007Reading this story from The Guardian this morning reminded me of an incident.
In 2000 through 2001, I travelled to India as a part of my job. I love India: the food, the experience and mostly the people. Adobe's sales team in India were the most gracious of hosts, and ensured that I sailed through an [...]

Gadget Geek Journey; Desintation 1: live.com
Thursday, January 4th, 2007Time to get serious on my resolutions. Well, at least one anyway; I'll start the waist shrinking/walking later. It's Thursday Geekout time!
Inspired by Robert Scoble's Podtech.net live.com gadget posting, and a general feeling that gadgets are where it is at for non-professional programmers like myself.

Aussie Lingo, Again
Tuesday, January 2nd, 2007Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi
Australian lexicon can leave you a few roos loose. And it's been a corker for years - well, at least since cocky was a chick.
Not as dry as a dead dingo's donger is the book Tobruk, by Australia's smartest footballer Peter FitzSimons - a dead easy read, even for non-war [...]
