GF attended her interrogation interview today. Relatively painless - the friendly face of fascism. Won't get papers back for 14 weeks (!)

@benwerd @ernmander - I feel like I've walked into a monkey island fencing contest.

@mattythorne Agreed. Shame, if they were a bit cheaper I think a bunch of people would jump at the chance...

@benwerd Not sure. A number of places offer sage subscriptions at various prices, but that's not quite as handy.

@benwerd Any thoughts on crunch.co.uk. Seems like a fairly good idea, but possibly priced a little high to take a punt on

Dear advertising people. If you make me listen to that "Here come the girls" song one more time I swear I will hurt you.

HMRC say I owe tax for 2007-8. I did - all of 9p. Cost of letter + handling card payment > 9p. Couldn't we call it quits? #fail

Car crash on horsepath driftway. Ambulance and Fire dept in attendance. No delays but lots of smoke and steam.

Is working hard on a cool new client project. Pondering food, but that would require fighting my way to the shops.

@benwerd Yes, very nice looking. But only lasts a couple of years before you have to throw it away as you can't replace the battery.

iPhone dev: is a Mac *absolutely* required these days? Seems a little short sited to cut out developers on other platforms.

@benwerd True. People should assume the network is hostile for the same reason nobody uses Telnet anymore.

So, http://www.boingboing.net/2009... + http://news.bbc.co.uk/2... = efficient state censorship mechanism. The #trafigura gag order looks positively friendly.

@Hedgewytch If making my industry impossibly expensive wasn't bad enough, new copyright laws bring in state censorship without trial.

@paulsq Because they have fallen for the guilt by association fallacy. When exactly did the UK become the GDR?

Also what is a Communication Service Provider? They don't just mean ISP... starting a social network? Don't run it on UK servers!

@benwerd I'll be right there on the next plane, but I suspect it's only a matter of time until this is everywhere.

I wonder if there's a market for an ADSL router/TOR appliance. Won't stop SN data-mining, but could stem the tide of oppressive surveillance

The inherent racism and xenophobia in the bureaucracy of UK state agencies is truly astounding.
