Ad break in the middle of ITV programme with very fat @stephenfry comes an ad for Heart. Not bad, but a better ad here: http://james.cridland.net/blog...
Twitrecycle: would any of my followers want: canvas green suitcase (cabin luggage size) on wheels? It'll cost you a pint. Collect London W1.
Goodness, elevator=deadline makes -such- a difference on this Acer Aspire One, instead of elevator=noop. Mmm, kernel switches.
@lloydshep When I was at school 'the biscuit game' wasn't entirely suitable for daytime television. Has the meaning changed?
@tradingnothing OK, fair enough - I'd no idea that there was a ratio limit on Twitter. In which case, http://dossy.org/twitter... might help.
@psychemedia Ha. Snap. Open Office Impress is possibly the least impressive piece of software out there. Google Docs works beautifully.
@tradingnothing You're doing it wrong. Follow people you value; unfollow those you don't. It's that simple, really.
@thetricktolife I checked mine. My local one is open till 5... ;)
Just broke my watch strap. D'oh. Just ordered another one. Good. Right - off to Sainsburys otherwise the cat will starve.
Johnny Vaughan – Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner - http://james.cridland.net/blog...
Notes with amusement that @CHRISDJMOYLES 's show when appearing on BBC subtitles is apparently "The Chris Mole Also Show".
Wonder what I should do tomorrow? (Excepting going to get some more food for the cat, of course.)
@thewelshbrummie ...and, for the record, DAB is -much- more popular in the UK than HD Radio is in the US.
@thewelshbrummie The US don't have access to the DAB frequencies we use, and we foolishly called it EuroDAB when we started.
Noticed after three Have I Got News For You on Dave, an annoying male "laugher", who hoots right at the end of most laughs. Listen for him.
Alexander Armstrong and Martin Freeman to star in computer drama - http://www.guardian.co.uk/media...
Bloody hell. This looks utter, unadulterated, shit. - James Cridland
@jasoncartwright you have to have a privacy policy for Google Ads. Just a trial.
There is something a little odd about writing a privacy policy on a personal website... http://james.cridland.net/biograp...
@thegiantsnail Not Adobe's issue. Google's. That's why Google Chrome is in alpha on Ubuntu. I knew that before I downloaded it. It's cool.
@thegiantsnail Not in Ubuntu it's not...
Were it not for lack of Flash support, Google Chrome would be my Ubuntu browser of choice. Super nippy, even if it's heavily in alpha.
Why I don’t do work blogs [tomVersus] - http://moontan.co.za/tomvers...
Tom says that I'm a prolific blogger, and then says that blogging should be left to the "real professionals". Um. Okay. Fine. Whatever. - James Cridland
RadioDNS – Developments Update - http://radiodns.org/2009...
A nice update in developments around RadioDNS, the technology that links broadcast to IP. Worthwhile looking at, if you've not already - there's some really good news to come. - James Cridland
A trawl around the web in June - http://james.cridland.net/blog...
@alaninbelfast You might have got me. I now know five chords. A whole £20, that was.
If you're having trouble sleeping, I've just dropped a blog post of interesting things to go and read: http://james.cridland.net/blog...
How Many People Does It Take...? [Paul Easton] - http://pauleaston.blogspot.com/2009...
Following a throwaway comment in this blog, Paul goes off to investigate staffing levels for BBC Radio 4. I must admit, I've no idea what 55 people do running the Today Programme either. - James Cridland
Radio Scilly [guardian.co.uk] - http://www.guardian.co.uk/culture...
A rather lovely writeup of my favourite local radio station, Radio Scilly. In, naturally, the TV Blog in The Guardian - which clearly stretches to television for grownups as well (i.e. the radio). - James Cridland
Digital Britain has arrived (or is at least en-route) [Nick Piggott] - http://nick.piggott.name/blog...
Nick's take on the Digital Britain report - essential reading for anyone involved in DAB Digital Radio or the future of radio - James Cridland
ASCAP Wants To Be Paid When Your Phone Rings [Electronic Frontier Foundation] - http://www.eff.org/deeplin...
ASCAP, the American equivalent of a bit of "PRS for Music", are going after the mobile phone companies wanting money for public performance of ringtones. You might think the music companies are a bunch of money-grabbing twats, but that wouldn't be for me to comment. - James Cridland
