New Stuff
I’ve been working like a dog this week, and had very little time to do anything other than design due to the looming deadline. So after a bit of a quiet spot… here is a blog post, oh and I have some pretty cool stuff to show off!!
New T-shirts
I got a couple new t-shirts from Jinx, both pretty geeky of course!
I’ve taken to ordering nearly all of my t-shirts from america now, there is a huge amount more choice and they cost half as much, even with the delivery. If anyone knows any other good geeky t-shirt sites please do shout them out!
Sony K800i
Finally have a new mobile telephone too.
I’m usually the kind of person that says I want a phone to make phone calls and nothing else, but with the GPRS coverage in London and the offer of unlimited internet usage for £7 per month I couldn’t say not!
The camera also works really well, you can see some of the photos I’ve taken with it here. It also has a RSS reader which is just perfect for checking the news on the train
The only complaint I have with it so far is that the battery life is a bit pants, at least for the amount that I’m using it, lasting about 2-3 days between charges.
Flash Book
Yep I’m jumping on the Flash Train.
We are going to need some flash stuff at work in the next week or two, so it’s time to get learning!
It’s pretty interesting, especially the video stuff, although the more I read into it the more it seems like programming and less like designing. The Actionscript stuff has a whole book to itself as well, which might be worth picking up.
Darkplace DVD
And the most awesome show ever made has finally come out on DEANVD!!
I absolutely love this show, and the dvd does it proud, the extras are worth the £12 alone.
If you havn’t seen/heard of darkplace you can watch a full episode here, then run out and buy the DVD right now or order it from PLAY.com (£12 + free delivery)!!
In my boredom yesterday I signed up to facebook, you can see my profile here.
It’s much nicer to use than any of the other social networking sites, but it really does lack customisation, everyones profile looks pretty much the same, until the change that I doubt it will ever make a dent in myspace.
