Happy Birthday to me!

Mum and Dad got me a new camera -

• My old camera was too big to fit in my pocket and was silver and had round edges and there was a long delay between pressing the button and the picture taking.
• My new camera is tiny and white and flat and takes photos very soon after you press the button.

Photoshopped romance-novel covers. Win.

Nokia are supporting as well as using open source software (Nokia have created this website, and are giving money to open source projects, not doing open-source in the bent Apple way). I so posted that a few hours before Nokia launched this:

I have starte to use Flickr. It is so much better than Gallery or other home-brew php hacks. My photos are all here.

Studying is boring also.

What Would Jesus Eat?

Which lecturer in concpetual mathematics waves his hands like this? Who would have thought that he sold used ships on Melee Island^TM?

At E3 yesterday, Microsoft announced the XBox 360 and Sony announced the PlayStation 3. Both companies produced endless reams of stats and numbers. Teraflops, gigahertz, billions of dot-products, DRAM, VRAM blah blah blah. Nintendo then announced the next evolution of the Game Boy series. The new Game Boy will be exactly the same as the old Game Boy Advance, but it is tiny. Tiny tiny tiny. Four inches wide and 2 inches tall.

Nintendo also announced their new console, which is still being referred to by the codename ‘Revolution’. Once more they refrained from comparing stats with other console manufacturers. They know that size and features matter, rather than speed (compare the graphics on the new Resident Evil game on the Gamecube to the latest XBox games - the relative console powers seem to have little impact on graphical performance). The new console will be the size of 3 DVD boxes, and plays DVDs and old Gamecube games. It has a slot for an SD Card, and half a gig of internal flash memory, enabling you to download and play games from old Nintendo consoles.

Totally S.W.T.

Tetris Shelving

This is shelving made from modular tetris-shaped blocks.

My second interview for the job I have applied for has been confirmed. That message gets a Gmail star.

I want to host my photos is a good way on the web. I registered for a free Flickr account, but I am overly happy with the Flikr website. The interface does some cool stuff, but it is very busy and full of distractions to try and get the user’s attention away from my photos. I am also not mad on Gallery.

Does anyone have a better solution? (No, I do not want to write an application to do it).

A letter to my Co. Council. I am actively trying to make Dublin not shit.

A self-referential multiple choice quiz.

This site looks a bit bad while I make it better.

This song is very very funny. It’s all about the London Underground and how shit it is.

Exams are soon. I am organising my notes, and I will learn the content of them soon.
