WordPress Upgrade
I’ve been delaying for a while to upgrade my WordPress version — for various reasons including not actually having the 10 minutes required to do so — but finally I managed today to spend a little time and upgrade it and even tidy up some bits and pieces on the blog. You won’t see any […]
LinkedIn and Twitter Automatic Update
Ok so this is getting intesresting — having installed the WordPress component on my LinkedIn page I now provide updates (automatically) on my LinkedIn profile every time I tag a blog post “LinkedIn” — and since I got the Twitter Updater I am providing updates automatically as well on my twitter — woohoo! So this […]

Brilliant article for those of us who had any client-facing / support tasks experience in the past: http://www.itwire.com/content/view/25082/1141/ As David Williams points out in his article, if it’s inside the computer, then it’s gotta be called “hard drive” for the regular user — and it is the cause for Microsoft Word crashing 🙂 A bit […]

I was just having a look at Microsoft’s tool for demographics prediction (http://adlab.microsoft.com/Demographics-Prediction/) and started getting curious about what is the split in between men and women when watching sport and here’s some interesting data that this tool predicts (Sky peeps you’d better listen out if you want to target your audience properly!): football: that […]
LinkedIn and WordPress
I’m sure many have used the WordPress LinkedIn application to post some of their blog content onto LinkedIn — and like them so did I. I’m still contemplating whether it was a mistake or not as the moment I’ve put the post about my leaving IntelliTXT team onto LinkedIn I got tons of emails — […]
Ideal Mobile Phone
Here’s hopefully a post that will keep growing as I keep thinking of other facilities — what would the ideal mobile phone offer and look like: I really like the touchscreen ones which interpret hand gestures (e.g. iPhone, Blackberry Storm etc) I also like the possibility of having both a full QWERTY keyboard and also […]
