Jeez - it's been ages. Apologies, but life is getting in the way again.....
By way of a round-up of stuff and things that have been entertaining or interesting me recently:
I have been listening to the Russell Brand podcast from the BBC recently, upon the recommendation of a friend. People keep looking at me funny as I drive past them, alone in the car, howling with laughter. Recommended, and yes, it's available on iTunes.
In an almost planned segway, the BBC are also in the news for (possibly) tying users of their forthcoming iPlayer on-demand service to the Microsoft platform. It's all a bit unclear at the moment, but there is a petition you can sign.
To wrap up today's mixed bag, I have recently started playing with Xgl and Beryl on Linux, and it is pretty :)
More when I have time......
