It’s quite pretty London during the night time. I took some photos recently testing out the HDR possibilities of Photoshop and my camera.
Call me old fashioned but I like to know where my stuff is. I leave my car keys next to the stairs so I know where they are. I don’t leave them on the table in the pub because I don’t want people borrowing my car without asking. I feel the same about my media. If I post stuff on the Internet I want to control who sees it and know it won’t be used to line random strangers pockets.
These kids died because they wanted to take drugs and most drugs are illegal. No doubt as a consequence of this illegality they bought mephedrone – legally sold as a plant food online – and it killed them. Their reasons for choosing a legal drug over an illegal one are open to debate – perhaps they didn’t want to break the law, perhaps they had no access to illegal drugs. Either way it brings into question the whole legislation. The […]
There’s hope for us yet… Moron television for moron people made by morons featuring morons has been defeated in the popularity contest.
Or perhaps it should be called the Millenium cash cow…..30 pods approximately 10 people per pod, that’s 300 people per 45 minute ‘experience’ – price for a ride 16 quid per person. Not so strange that they didn’t pull it down as originally suggested after the millenium celebrations. It’s run by BA now, I wonder if they’ll be striking along with the pilots at Easter…

Film has a particular performance characteristic when exposed to light which means it is much more sympathetic to extremes of contrast than video sensors which tend to blow out the highlights when confronted with extremes of brightness.
Messenger has got so infested with parasitic spammers that it’s almost become unusable. Login and you get a million and one requests for new friends. Skype is not far behind. Frankly it’s rubbish. How about authorization via another means, email for example. For the time being I’m staying signed out. Text me if you want to get hold of me. I know who you are.
View Full Album Three photos featuring the colour blue. I feel I could extend this idea to include other primary colours. Then move on to the secondary and tertiary colours…
Oh look, I can put an isometric view of my flat in here. What ever next? And the above is an embedded video form my YouTube account… I’m sure this is hardly revolutionary if you’ve done some blogging in the last five minutes, but the last time I had a go you had to hack the “embed” code into the HTML. This was great fun when attempting it on a Chinese computer with all the dialogue in foreign speak. What […]
