Strange Days

Really, these last couple of days have been hectic, joyous, bittersweet and retrospective but I wouldn’t change a thing. Getting the Moblog to work was a bit of a struggle, but I managed it, even though it’s not using the system I first thought of but if it’s not borked then don’t fix it I guess. Now I just need to post in it to justify the effort.


Blitzed!

130mb of bandwidth used… I only linked 2 files to YayHooray, each about 70k in size… Thats just crazy amounts of downloads/page views.


Rest in Peace Rich (Part II)

This morning I found out Rich Baran had died in a car accident near to his home on Tuesday morning. I never knew him personally but over the last 18 months I’ve had enough interaction with him on various design and creative communities to classify him as an acquaintance, I wouldn’t say he was a friend as I didn’t really know him that well. But reading the news that he had passed away shook me to my core and threw me for the whole day…

I’m Lovin’ It

I’d love to say I had a productive weekend, I really would, but I was playing Pro Evolution Soccer 3 on the PlayStation 2 for most of it.

Coming Soon to a TV Screen Near You, Maybe…

A strange thing happened yesterday… But I’ll give you a bit of background first. I was designing a shitty site for a shitty removal firm who paid shitty money for it, so we’re basically told to give them the bare minimun of what they specify. And I do, but I try to make them look decent…

Daily Distractions

This is how the bottom of my desktop looks everyday… With the scope of information thats assaulting my senses day in and day out, it’s a wonder I get any work done.

Slacker with an Excuse

In approximately 7 and half hours of being in work I’ve probably only done about 2 hours of actual work…

What’s the secret of my success? Windows XP Professional of course.

2) Bring your own
