I've created a public PopFly "Block" called NeilFinnLyrics (now shared) this is bare, bare bones. It simply uses the new REST interface to the Random Neil Finn Lyric Server. The Lyric [...]
Explaining to my Mum what I actually do
Wednesday, June 20th, 2007Having grown up on a farm, I saw what my Dad did every day. I saw it grow; and helped around. I learnt how to read clouds and the sky to determine the weather, and what the time was without a watch. From memory, at about 12 years old pretty much anything that could be [...]

Now Frank Arrigo, my manager, has entered that into the internal Microsoft [...]

I CAN HAS LOLCODE.COM T-SHIRT
Friday, June 15th, 2007As the LOLCATS meme goes TechEd; here one of my submissions:
Now, in the interest of learning new programming languages: I purchased a LOLCODE.com T-shirt. What was interesting was the non-geeks looking at me strangely. People already think I am "out there", and the LOLCODE t-shirt just proves it.
Before you start dis'in my new language of [...]
