1. Open Source Ideas

    All too often, I have ideas which might make a cool website or iPhone app or whatever and I know I just don't have the time to build them. I'm going to post them here in the hope that someone else might find a use for them. These ideas might already be in existence, of course. I'm not claiming they are unique in any way (although some might be).

    You are free to take these ideas and do whatever you like with them. Of course, if they become amazingly successful, I could do with a bigger TV...

    SpreadShop

    If you wake up every morning and think, "My t-shirts are so dull, I wish I had interesting clothes...", you need to have a look at my online shop.


  3. Aww, shucks...

    Aww, shucks...

    Despite the fact that I generally keep my birthday a fairly well-hidden secret, it seems that some people just won't let it lie. It's not that I'm trying to keep my age a secret - I'm proud to say I was born in 1978, the Golden Age of Disco - I just tend to avoid the kerfuffle that goes with presents, parties and cards.

    Having said that, I was still over the moon on Thursday night when my wonderful other half threw a mini surprise birthday party in a cool little cafe/bar called the Orblight Café (Note: I'm not saying Thursday was my birthday, Jenni just happened to be in the country then). Then, after getting over the surprise (and after the first Guinness), she presented me with what seems to have been several months in the planning: cards and birthday e-mails from practically everyone I know! Really, everyone!* There were all kinds: cards written in binary, cartoon cats, even a picture of me when I was 20 (although I look 14)

    Thanks everybody. I'm now going off to listen to some Bee Gees.

    *except Gary who seems to have completely disappeared. Seriously, e-mail me.
