US judges betting on elections

a nice look a the US Supreme Court judges betting on election results. Funny or worrying? I’m not sure – they’re allowed to express political opinions, aren’t they?

s5 and slides

S5 looks like a neat CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)-based XHTML slide presentation template.

OSS ok in UK (and Oz)

Open source appears to be OK for use in UK government circles, and is rising in Australia as well.

Flamenco directo

Saw a great flamenco-ish dance show yesterday called Flamenco Directo. A slightly snotty review is available from the Stage. From my ignoramus perspective, it was great entertainment and great dancing.

Waste management in ILBC

Islington isn’t great at waste. Management of it, that is. It’s mostly down to the contract with ICSL / Accord, I reckon.

Xmas already!

Apparently xmas is coming on the web, too. Some nice ideas on how to make finding that perfect gift even easier.

The Magic of RFID

Nice, detailed article on how RFID tags work.

UK public doesn’t know about e-Government

Apparently the UK public has an appetite for using government services online, but doesn’t know that they are there.

UK government eBay for services

The government is thinking about an eBay-style marketplace for goods and services. It’s an interesting idea – as they suggest, why not let the private sector build it and run it under licence and then it doesn’t really matter if it works or not. Interesting to see how services might work in this approach, as well.

Philosophy papers online

A small but growing repository for philosophy papers.
