Now That's A Business Card
WIRED UK: Column 11
In which I talk about information and crapping:
Some guy from my ISP phoned me earlier — thereby buggering the afternoon's work, and therein lies a link — to ask nicely if they could upgrade my broadband and take over my landline telephone provision for a small increase in my monthly fee. He then asked me something that actually stopped me dead for a moment. He asked me how much I download, on average. And I found that I had no idea…

An Underground Master Plan
Wonderful language in a news story about land use and a new waterfront city in Singapore:
The committee said there is also a need for an underground master plan.
It said the government should catalyse the development of underground space over the next decade.
The committee also emphasized a need to develop subterranean land rights, a valuation framework and to establish a national geology office.

T-shirt Of The Week #011: SCIENCE GANGSTER
TOTW is basically a joke that Ariana and I pull each week in our joint guise as the International Electrophonic Unit. Basically, we take some of the stupider things I've said on Twitter and elsewhere, often in a state of extreme alcoholic refreshment or severe sleep deprivation, and put them on a t-shirt.

Oh, Nokia. You mean well. It's like watching the most committed and brilliant minds in Scando telecoms design the best, most secure and efficient bicycle that any fish could possibly want.

Twitter: A Shitbox For Your Brain
For a while, I had a capture of my twitter feed running here. It ended up doing something weird to my API calls, stopping me from running my desktop client, so I killed it. Which is probably just as well, as I talk a lot of shit on Twitter. It's basically mental slurry, the wet lumpy bits from a day spent at the keyboard vented off into a trap so the buildup doesn't blow some crucial valve in my head. Look at these, from the last six weeks or so:
