Little Doctor Who Casting Script

Quote For The Day
Picture the scene, early 2024, as Lou and Andy are coming out of the final casting call for the return of Doctor Who. Lou: So you're happy with Christopher Ecclestone then as the new Doctor. Andy: Yeah. Lou:He's absolutely perfect. Just what we all want. Andy: Yeah, I know....

Pocket Computers and Phones

ETech 2005 - Snap Summary

O'Reilly Etech Conference
And it's all over for another year. Emerging Technology is a strange type of conference. I've found it more tiring than the Symbian Expo's and 3GSM's of this world, even though they've all involved a fair amount of walking around the floor, or travelling time. I think it's the sheer...

Breakfast and Terror

Personal Thoughts and Messages
Nothing in America that I've found says more to me that 'you're somewhere else' than the breakfast / café chain that is Denny's. Sure there's a bundle of funny moey where all the notes are the same size, and the same color, (but they have different faces, and tiny numbers...

Off We Go, Into The Wild Blue Yonder

O'Reilly Etech Conference
Here we go, off to O'Reilly's Emerging Technology again. Slightly different mindset this time as (a) I'm not speaking this time and (b) the OPL Book's print run means I can’t sneak a few Wiley books into an O'Reilly event. Shame really. But the value of the people I can...

Sony Network Walkmans

Personal Thoughts and Messages
Oooh, quick, jump over to Jurgens post on Infosync for a look at the new Sony MP3/ATRAC flash players. And they're aimed squarely at taking on the Ipod Mini's and Shuffles... Perhaps there's a chance her for a specialist blog to get the Google juice and ithe interest on ATRAC...

Sony Minidisc and Podcasting

Podcasting
Yeah I'm the Cassandra who shouts MiniDisc isn't dead, it's just misunderstood. And in the last few weeks as I put in place things with TPN, and listening to podcasts from around the globe, I've found (unsurprisingly, with hindsight) that the whole MiniDisc system is almost perfect for Podcasting -...
