A photo of the canal in Ballsbridge, Dublin, after a nice weekend there the other week
My first flickr video
…and it's a video that I took in Iceland. Flickr gives me -exactly- what I'm looking for. Brilliant. I'll be using the video mode on the camera rather more now.
UK bloggers shaping our industry [Aqute Research]
"Which of the people shaping the UK industry are blogging? I mean people doing real stuff." Apparently, I'm a UK blogger shaping our industry. Gosh. Thanks.
Video: Mitchell and Webb - What do you reckon? [idents.tv]
Brilliant spoof TV news piece, featuring the kind of inane 'interactivity' displayed by the very worst of the 24-hour news channels.
Highfield leaves - the BBC must now open up [Techcrunch UK]
A good piece; and a central theme that I find it hard to disagree with. Mind you, Mike didn't tip me for the top, so he's officially Off The Christmas Card List. Bah. ;)
Why your streaming strategy is all wrong [Mark Ramsey]
Mark talks about disaggregation, and on-demand content, rather than live streaming. Damn, another post that I agree with. Mark must have discovered what the BBC have been doing since 2002.
Windows Vista's rubbish logic [Graham Beale]
Clearly poor navigation logic from Microsoft. This website includes details of "Yet another hack to make a Microsoft product usable". Meanwhile, I'm blissfully happy with Ubuntu.
XFM news [Matt Deegan]
Matt breaks the news that XFM is no longer for sale (at least, in two areas), and makes a few valid observations. Very peculiar, all that.
Success of BBC's iPlayer [The Tech Herald]
Another piece about the iPlayer sapping up all the internet's strength (I've seen the figures, trust me, it's not). Amusingly illustrated with my screenshot of iPlayer working on Linux. If it's not one thing to complain about, it's another…
This is a tidied and edited list of my del.icio.us postings from April 13th to April 14th. You can subscribe to this list, live, via rss.
