Another Number One!
Aah Haa! I’m now number one hit for a Google search for Journalized.
And I’m still number one for a Google search for Mike Little.
Go me!
This Makes me MAD!
Steve P just sent me a link to the Campaign for Digital Rights summary of Sony’s new set of non-“Red Book” audio CD releases. Thanks Steve.
I hadn’t realised this was so widespread and so damaging! The Celine Dion album causes a PowerMac G4 to require repair by an Apple dealer! What’s next, only Sony CDs will work in Sony players?
They also have a good Dmitry Sklyarov FAQ
Get Out The Magnifying Glass
Zannah at #!/usr/bin/girl posted links to two attempts at the “the world’s smallest website”. I prefer cool or not to Dot16.
Here’s The london Design Collective’s original guimp.com.
TeeVee make me SleePee
Watching TV make my brain go to sleep. It really does. I normally stay awake until at least 1 or 2am. Pretty much every night. Yet, last night and tonight after sitting watching the Commonwealth Games coverage, in which I’m taking an interest, I’m dropping off in my seat by 11pm. What it going on?
I can only imagine that it is because I’m being passive. When I normally stay awake until 1am or later, I am either reading, coding, browsing websites, emailing, or chatting. I’m using my brain, I’m actively engaged. Yet watching TV seems to turn off my brain. The funny thing is that I can watch a film through to the early hours. At least if it’s an interesting one, even if I’ve seen it before. So like books, films hold my interest.
It may also be true that sitting in the lounge means that I am not sat upright. The so -called comfortable seating in the lounge only allows one to slouch, leaning back. Whereas sitting reading in the kitchen or sitting at my computer I tend to sit upright with quite good posture.
So after falling asleep in front of the TV at probably around 10:30pm, I’m now sat in front of the computer feeling quite alert.
Very strange. Perhaps this explains why I don’t watch TV at all. I reckon that the nearly eight hours I’ve watched in the past two days has doubled my TV consumption this year!
Manchester 2002
I’ve just finished watching the opening ceremony for the Manchester 2002 commonwealth games. I really enjoyed it. It was actually very good. Much better than many opening ceremonies I have seen. There’s going to be saturation coverage on TV for the next 10 days. I guess I’ll get to see a lot of it. Jan and Jamie are going to see the Women’s Gymnastics on Sunday at the GMex centre.
Merge City
Well, I finally finished all those merges I needed to do. It took about 3 days longer than expected! And there are more painful merges to come. 🙁
I’ve still to finish packaging up the release. But I’ve stopped that while I have to branch from a previous release of another project coz, the client doesn’t have time to test the last release! So they want the previous release (which hasn’t gone live yet) PLUS one more piece of work.
Subversion
Cool! Subversion has just hit alpha. Subversion is a designed and built from scratch replacement for / successor to CVS. It addresses all the short comings of CVS, and adds tons of cool new features. Check it. But don’t forget that alpha status.
