Entry to "news" on JDJ
Posted against http://www.sys-con.com/Java/articlenews.cfm?id=2094 "manage the secure distribution and monetization of digital content" Meaning what? Ensuring people pay for content and can't copy it? "Monetization", is it any wonder most of us hate
Mind Maps, using colour in Outlook
Just been going back to using mind maps (MindManager) to compress lots of complex information into a small space. Have a go, its at http://www.mindjet.com. I needed to summarise our team's work for our new manager and managed to get it all on one pag
Bring me the docking station of Alfredo Garcia
Well, J's docking station finally recycled after 5 weeks. Still got N's hiding away on a spare desk. Went to the Crosby coast guard last night for a chat about what they do and so forth. Pretty interesting evening. Having my usual hate relationship
Text of email sent to BBC's PM and Today programmes

Bugs, hair cuts, no end to the excitement
Changed something - unit tested it and surrounding code. Sometimes things work and sometimes they don't, desk test the code, it works. Chop out driving queries and replace variables with constants, they work. Still the view I'm trying to get working
Grinder grinder, burning bright
Posts Posted a note on the Today noticeboard saying that I was tired of the blanket coverage of WoMaD on the news and wanted the incompetent, innumerate education secretary to be grilled on why my kid's school has been forced to make all of the clas
Sacrificial Lambs, Holidays and Schtuff
Lambing We aren't doing as well as we hoped so 3 of my IT colleagues were sacrificed to keep the shareholders happy. One of them is the best manager I have ever worked for. We didn't know he was going until the rumour mill told us late in the aftern
