  • Enterprise versus Death Star

    Finally the argument is settled. And the winner is…

  • Greensdale on the blogosphere

    Incidentally, I found some of the links in the previous piece via Roy Greensdale’s blog. He has a comment piece in the Guardian today about delving into the world of the blogosphere. I might as well quote the whole piece, it’s worth it. I’ve added emphasis for good quotes. I am at the bottom of…

  • O'Reilly versus Murdoch, are newspapers worth it?

    O’Reilly has again been trumpeting print newspapers this time calling them the “ultimate browser”. The response of Independent News & Media, the owner of The Independent and The Independent On Sunday, to the march of new media had been measured and thoughtful, he said. Sir Anthony said he believed we are in another period of…

  • Blogroll renovation

    For the first time I am probably going to have to start breaking up my blogroll to distinguish between bloggers in different parts of Ireland, Cork, Dublin bloggers etc. It is a testament to the the growth of blogging in Ireland that I have to do this, and something I am thrilled about. There are…

  • Archives screwed?

    My archive page in K2 appears to be well and truly gone. I have tried various means of bringing it back, but she is darn stubborn. Any thoughts? It seems I’m not the only one with the problem, the K2 page has the same 404.

  • Web 2.0 shtuff in Cork, boy

    Damien has a post up, and there’s a few photos floating around on Flickr. I didn’t get chatting to everyone, but I did have some conversations with Bernie, Donncha, Rob, Joe, Branedy, Fergus, Ed and a quick chat with Tom and Shel, Salim and Conor. What a great bunch of people and thoroughly enjoyable conversation!…

  • Web 2.0 prior art?

    I was browsing comments on O’Reilly and came across a link to this. It’s from 1999. The first glimmerings of Web 2.0 are beginning to appear, and we are just starting to see how that embryo might develop.

  • Canvas

    Just tesing out the Canvas plugin for WordPress. It is rather nice.

  • Tom gets Slashdotted

    Companies really should think about the repurcussions before they send off Cease and Desist letters. I hope Tom’s server can handle the /. crowd! 🙂 The backlash has been quite substantial, O’Reilly have responded. Tom has published the letter of their response, it’s not too nice either. Update: It appears Twenty has written a rather…

  • Sony Ericsson W800i Review

    After my reliable and much loved Nokia 6630 had an unfortunate run-in with a washing machine, it was written in the stars that I was destined to get a new phone. I eventually decided on the Sony Ericsson W800i, incidentally the same as Ryan’s who lauded the phone’s features. First off is the 2.0MP camera.…
