Artweeks 2009 – Featuring me!

I am going to be exhibiting some of my photos as part of Oxfordshire’s Artweeks festival.  There’s a group of us who have got together to hire the local church hall as gallery space.  For a sneak preview of what you could see if you come along in May, take a look at the Kennington [...]

Sponsor my moustache!

During November I am growing a moustache in aid of Prostate Cancer, with a team of colleagues. To donate to this worthy cause, visit my Mospace page: http://uk.movember.com/mospace/1588936After?

The accidental spokesman

It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted something here, but I have been quite busy since Christmas. A week off work with a nasty dose of flu and then my transformation in the last week into all-round media man. Yes, my organisation of a barbeque to mark the opening of Oxford’s Identity [...]

Blindsided

Not content with posting to 3 blogs that I administer, plus the one at work, I now have an article at Blindside, a site which looks at things that could go wrong in our increasingly digital world (mainly from a public sector view point). It is the dark sister site of Ideal Government. [...]

Five things you didn’t know about me

This is part of the meme that threatens to destroy the interweb whereby each person gives 5 interesting, or not so interesting facts about themselves and then tags 5 other people to [...]

Getting Things Done… again

I haven’t made any New Year’s resolutions as such for the start of 2007. However, I have been re-reading David Allen’s book Getting Things Done (GTD).
I read this the first time a year or two back and have put some of its ideas into practice. So now I manage my life [...]

Name change

No, I haven’t changed my name to a SQL injection attack yet. I’m referring to the blog title. I thought I’d capitalize on my geeky initials.
Incidentally, I’ve always considered my surname to be of Scandinavian origin. My Dad’s family come from Formby just north of Liverpool, which is traditionally considered to be [...]

Now I live at a URL

Yes, my house is at http://107.the.avenue.org.uk…
All I need to do is register road.org.uk, crescent.org.uk, street.org.uk and I can start my own business mapping houses to URLs.

In Denmark

I’m currently in Denmark, having attended JAOO. I’ll be posting some thoughts etc here very soon…

100 Bonus Geek Points

Hello. Yes, I’m still here despite my recent silence. Just had to point out that I’ve just gained 100 Bonus Geek Points by being mentioned in an O’Reilly book:

I reviewed Chapter 6 (Exception Handling – take a look, I think you’ll find it’s one of the best ;-)) so Steven kindly thanked me [...]
