I can’t help it. I’m a techie.

So, it’s been noted that the content of this blog over the course of the last few months has verged too much towards the inanely dull and technical. That’s just the way it’s gone recently as I’ve done lots of techie things.

This blog is as much a place to share new internet toys with co workers and those friends that may find them interesting, as a place for sharing the more random, and infinitely more amusing stories.

That said, the balance has definitely more towards the tech recently, and less of anything else.

So, I’ll be sure to make sure I take the time to post other stuff too. Just so happens that I spend a lot of time on the web during the day researching web techniques and the latest trends, and I post what I find as I go.

State your intentions!

I will start a page on the blog, called “State your intentions”. Or something similar. We’ll see what creative energies are flowing nearer the time.

Anywho – the gist is that it will be a list of things I intend to do. As well as the progress I’m making towards achieving them.

That way I might actually achieve my goals.

Anywho – gotta rush. Off to dinner :)

Better not file this under the procrastination category just yet. Only just came to me.

Inspired in part by coming across Wil Wheaton’s Wish List (yes, Wesley from STNG. He’s got an awesome blog actually – I feel bad for complaining about his previous character. All is forgiven.)

Anywho – to start the ball rolling:

  • I will add a del.icio.us link here
  • I will add a link to what I’m reading
  • I will add a link to what I’m listening
  • I will state long term life goals and indicate expected timeframes with countdowns. It’ll be scary to see my life slipping away before my eyes.
  • I will blog important events from last year in retrospect (Wedding, Honeymoon!). Oops.
  • I will give back to the Open Source community – I can learn PHP and produce plug ins for WordPress and also work on some themes (some of the ones out there are bugly. I’m sure I can do better.)

This is a “Good Thing” to do. I encourage others to do the same.

Laters!

Hmm … old photos …

Seems I posted quite a few of the old photos on this site directly to Blogger, and you can’t access those externally. Will migrate all the old photos across to Flickr and reindex the old blog posts soon. Cos I know you all enjoy reading the old stuff.

I also promise to correctly categorise all the old posts. Because I’m boring.
