Online add-ons

There’s going to be an enormous “alongside” industry of people selling add-ons to online experiences. You can easily blow $100k for a chunk of Second Life and I like the fact that people are selling “fab friends” to funk up your MySpace.

Badgers 1, Hockey 0

This is the sort of story Caroline might send me.

Time for an MP3 change?

It’s time to try Rockbox, I think. I very much want to do playlists on the run. That’s part of my reason for playing music on shuffle – random discovery of good stuff.

Wiltshire and Swansea

Wiltshire is still bouncing back and forth in terms of one council or not – but look at the savings – 244 to 98 councillors.

And in separate news, it looks like Capgemini / Swansea is bubbling over again. An outsource that will end up going back in-house?

Meetings are convergers

It’s hard to get divergent opinions at a meeting – research is beginning to back this up. Which is why we use our post-it wander around sessions as often as possible to get information out of individual heads.

UK Urban Exploration

28 days later is a lovely site detailing its members forays into places you aren’t supposed to go. Lots of sewers, the post office train system and other fun and games.

Seven virtues

Lovely indexed describing the 7even virtues.

X-ray specs

We must be pretty close to X-ray specs, now. Coming to an airport near you in the next few years.

Fairtrade

Is Fairtrade fair? I’m really not sure, but it certainly is difficult to tell. The timing of the certification process certainly seems to be out of kilter with reality. Alternative models such as GoodAfrican must be a valuable addition to the market. My instincts must be leaning against it now.

Go the next to be cracked?

Looks like computing power is creeping up on the game of Go. Which I must get back to playing – it is great fun, but bloody hard.
