What you’ll not see, if you don’t visit my homepage regularly (most people feed-read by the looks of things) is that I added, a few months ago, a feed of cartoons from Hugh MacLeod. I met him once, but I’d no idea back then what he did, so he told me he did cartoons for the backs of business cards, and I seem to remember saying something non-committal like “Oh, good”. When I meet him next, I’ll be rather more appreciative. Most impressive work.

Aaaanyway. The one I reproduce above is the most excellent thing. And very true.

(Incidentally, nice – and shrinking – TWiTter Wil Harris has an original Hugh MacLeod on the back of his business card. I’m quite jealous of it.)

If you’re not visiting my website, you’ve probably missed out on my item-roll (Scoble calls this a link-blog, but it’s not, since it contains full text); my photo album (come, see round Gibraltar); and a few longer pieces of writing, including my visit to the Indian High Commission last year on a moderately long attempt to try to get a visa.

Finally, since, ridiculously, other websites are linking to this blog as some kind of erudite commentary on the media industry today, like Press Gazette for example, I’d be remiss in gently reminding visitors here that there’s another website they might find useful, called Media UK. It’s a media directory. Quite useful sometimes.

Anyway. This is the kind of self-serving post Robert Scoble makes every now and again, so if it’s good enough for him, it’s good enough for me. But I fancy it’s time for Buzz Out Loud, which means it’s time for bed; that podcast being my proven method for both geek-news updates AND instant sleep generation. I rarely make it to the calls at the end. Zzzz.
