This is just a short post to see how well the new app works. I have just downloaded an Android app that allows me to post via my phone. Magic! Edit; I seem to be able to geotag posts now too [ READ MORE ]
Remember that time I said I’d post every day. Never happened did it? Maybe I’ll try harder this time. Yesterday I sorted out our DVD shelves and got most of them into alphabetical order. Today I downloaded a great piece of open source software called the Ant Movie Catalog. It alows you to catalogue all of [ READ MORE ]
For those paying attention, I posted last week about my new shaving regime using a traditional DE (double edge) razor. It’s actually going OK. The first shave was “interesting “and I ended up with quite a few cuts and a lot of blood. However it’s actually really enjoyable. I’m still working on my technique and [ READ MORE ]

Unlike my previous few posts, this is not an “Interview a Day in May” – I kind of ran out of people to interview. Oh well, at least I have something else interesting to blog about. I just received a pack of 200 business cards from www.moo.com – that site is so very, very good. The [ READ MORE ]
Type in “dan jackson” on Google. Go on. See who the first result is? That’s no mean feat. It’s taken about 4 months of trial and error, but there I am. Right at the bastard top! The very first result. I win at the internet. All I need to do now is beat that twit from Stargate [ READ MORE ]
