Vodafone, apps, and dumb pipes in the sky

It's Interesting Up North
Russell Davies’ Interesting conference are something of an institution.  350 people cram into Conway Hall in London to hear interesting people talk about interesting things, ranging from Prozac-flavoured yoghurt, to a history of well-beloved ponies, to a live demonstration of the colour of Radio 4.  And that was just last year. I’ve been to all three, [...]

Some random terrorism-related numbers

Rules of The Game
I’ve been thinking a bit more about *how* The Game could operate. Not the “what”, exactly, but more about the underlying behaviour. I’m no expert on gaming, so I don’t know how much of this is the bleedin’ obvious – but it strikes me that there are a number of facets that [...]

Too Big To Succeed
William Heath has put up a post called “What the smart government IT supplier needs to say in 12 weeks’ time“. I started a comment there which grew to the size of a post, so I figured I might as well put it up here as well. He asks the question: “Now: here’s the crux. Britain’s [...]

Robbery for fun and profit
Another day, another Daily Mail-esque panic about how social networking is causing the downfall of modern society as we know it. This time it’s pleaserobme.com, a site that scrapes location-based services such as Foursquare and Gowalla and publicises the fact that you’re – shock, horror – not at home. It’s a clever idea, but it [...]

Weeks 3 and 4
This has actually turned out to be a biweek note, because I didn’t get around to posting anything last Friday. Last week was mainly a quick trip to London – partly to chase down a few potential opportunities, and partly as a chance to behave more like a tourist than an inmate. The Victoria & Albert Museum [...]

Week #2
This is going to be a quick one, ostensibly because I’ve been on holiday all week in the Lakes. This has involved doing as little as possible, which translated in practice into getting my head around the way iPhones handle multiple views within an application; and reading an entire 756-page novel from end to end. I [...]
