I’m always looking for new and innovative ways to completely waste my time online, so when I met Justin Hall at SxSW this year and heard about some of the cool things he was doing with games and user-surfing patterns, I knew his PMOG would probably be for me as someone who has been addicted […]

Flora Day 2007
May 10, 2007 – 6:09 pm
By very popular request, here is an update. I didn’t want to do it.
Back to work after a brief trip to definitely not-so-sunny Cornwall for Flora Day. I didn’t take as many photos as last year, because, well… it’s pretty much the same deal every year. Feel free to browse last year’s […]
South by South West
March 24, 2007 – 6:12 pm
I kept saying to myself that I will eventually get around to writing something about this, but being out of the office for 8 days and the best part of offline for 10 means I’ve just had too much getting in my way.
In short: South by South West was great!
First things first; our […]
SXSWi Microformats Panel Confirmed
February 23, 2007 – 6:15 pm
The Growth and Evolution of Microformats panel at SXSWi has been added to the rather handy panel planner on the SXSWi site (shame it’s not marked up as hCalendar though – [edit] the panel picker has now been microformated!). It gives a little bit more of an overview about what it’ll be about:

3 months of Twitter
February 15, 2007 – 6:18 pm
I have many microformat related posts (rants?) to come, but they’re best saved until after this weekend since BarCamp will make a better foundation for said discussions. Looking forward to what is turning out to be a little bit of a mini microformat camp though!
So on another topic - Twitter. I know, plenty […]
JAWS Screen Reader Session, Microformats and Us.
December 5, 2006 – 2:05 pm
Last Monday I had the opportunity to visit the Test Partners, after an invite by Steve Green, to attend an afternoon of screen reader demonstration. I’m exceptionally glad I went, and it’s a shame I’ve been too busy to mention it sooner.
Firstly, the session concentrated on a specific sub-group of internet users - the […]

On Saturday I got to go on a trip to Oxford. I’ve only been there once before, and that was at night for a work function so I didn’t really get to see it. It’s a pretty place. Steve and I went along to a little lunch at “The Big Bang” that […]
Developing for others
October 25, 2006 – 2:02 pm
As if by magic, Jeffery Zeldman yesterday published an article about print style sheets, which just happened to be what I was tangentally ranting about in the car on the way to work the other morning. Most of us support printers about as badly as we support screen readers, and I don’t think the […]
