Thursday, July 5th, 2007Microsoft have announced a new development centre in Vancouver due to open this Autumn (still can’t bring myself to say Fall). I think this is really good news for IT in Vancouver, especially Microsoft focused development. I’d also really like to work for Microsoft one day. Will certainly be keeping my eyes peeled for more [...]
I resisted for ages but recently John succumbed closely followed by Ruth so I figured I’d take a look and see what everyone was talking about. It turns out it’s frighteningly addictive, I have 59 friends (largely ex-colleagues) , I’ve persuaded several other people to join (sorry guys) and got back in contact with a few people I’d [...]

Photography

Monday, May 22nd, 2006Tango have surpassed themselves with another excellent advert. This time parodying the Sony Bravia (bouncy balls advert). They’ve also put up a fake residents website. Very funny!
Holiday
Friday, January 20th, 2006Just to let anyone who reads this know. I’m on holiday for two weeks from tomorrow so I’ll have a backlog of comment spam to delete when I get back. This means any comments you post will be delayed, sorry. <Insert Expletive of choice/>ing spammers.
No more comment spam!
Wednesday, January 18th, 2006Ugh, I’ve given up and turned on moderation so it’s going to take a little longer for comments to appear I’m afraid. The upside is people won’t get blasted with meaningless junk anymore!
