OK. I’ve managed to avoid the whole meme thing pretty well for the past year or so, but I can’t really ignore being tagged by David, so bear with me. I’ll keep it brief.
Five things you probably don’t know about me.

I’d rather be a concert pianist: I used to be a pretty reasonably pianist back [...]

So, the Scobles are in town (London) this week. I’m kind of interested to see what they’re like but… call me daft, I’ve got to say I’m a little intimidated by the idea of meeting them (and all the cool bloggers they’re bound to be hanging out with).
So, I was wondering whether anyone else might [...]

World Usability Day is 20 days out. Are you doing anything to celebrate?
If your work involves usability or user experience, you should be!
This is a great chance for us to make some noise and help spread the word that usability matters and that there are people like us who spend our time trying to make [...]

So, I finally took some time to go back an review the state of the categories on my blog this weekend. All in all, it took me about 2 hours to get things to a state that I’m now reasonably happy with. No wonder I was putting it off… it wasn’t fun. Quite an exercise [...]

So, today I did my first ever podcast and shipped it off to Anne for the Office 2.0 Podcast Jam.
I’ve shied away from podcasting for as long as I’ve known about it for a few reasons.

It wasn’t really a particularly well planned exercise, [...]

ok. So who else is loving the new, sexier Bloglines? It’s gone all 2.0 on me when I wasn’t looking. I don’t think it makes it one scrap more usable, but, neither is it less so. And damn, I feel so much cooler when I use it now! And that counts. (Yes it does!) Yay [...]

I was just thinking lately how much I love blogging when people drop by and engage in the conversation. And you’ve all been such a chatty crew lately. Yay you!
Clearly, it is good to be a relatively obscure little blogger. Big bloggers like Kent Newsome and his friends are apparently feeling bored and lonely in [...]

ok. I know… it’s sad and nerdy that I’m so excited about being able to do this, but hooray! here I am, blogging at BarCamp.
It was a bit tough getting up this morning and heading off for two days of talking and listening about work… but v glad to be here. It’s been interesting and [...]
