Life's about experiences. These are mine.
I note from the BBC that it is the deadline for Northern Rock bids to be in today. Along with one from Richard Branson’s Virgin group it is expected that these will include a bid from the existing management team. This is presumably the same team that helped get Northern Rock into the predicament that …
I spoke about personalisation earlier in the year and then remembered that I also had these examples done for me at AppSwing when we were considering a mail-out. They were all done by Lorien Unique a local company specialising in this sort of work. They are all eye catching and show off the capability of …
Since my post yesterday about the iPod Touch update that add new applications and features to the device I have discovered that it also takes some things away. A couple of the existing applications were Calendar and Contacts which you could sync with Microsoft Outlook – not any more. It seems that this ability has …
So the picture on the left is what my iPod Touch looked like after I had applied the software update announced at Macworld earlier in the week. The big question is, however, is it worth the £12 price tag that Apple have cheekily applied to it? I think the short answer is no, it’s not …

So the new Liberal Democrat leader is in hot water already with the “revelation” that he does not believe in God. No sooner had he answered the question than he was having to beat a hasty retreat and saying things like that he had “enormous respect for people who have religious faith” and that his …
So Kimi Raikkonen is the new Formula One world champion, or is he… As I write this the McLaren team have appealed the decision not to disqualify the BMW & Williams team for being found to have fuel that is more than 10 degrees outside ambient temperature. Therefore, while a decision is made on that …
With the advent of multi-channel TV the publishers need to find something to fill these channels. So today on BBC Parliament we have live coverage of the Labour Party Conference, complete and unedited. From the little I saw this morning this message hadn’t got through to the MP Keith Vaz who was chairing a Q&A …
