Lifehacker FTW

Thursday April 8th 2010

Lifehacker is a pretty cool site - one of the ones I check on a daily basis during my lunch break. That said, it would be nice if when they decide to illustrate an article with one of my photos they actually attributed it to me. Particularly since the Creative Commons licence I use on my photos requires it.

I've added a comment to the article - we'll see what happens.

Also on the subject of my Flickr stream, the operator of Save the Cliffe has been nice enough to upload my photos (with full permission and CC attribution) to his site. I can only hope it helps.

Later: Aha! Lifehacker have fixed the attribution. Thanks guys!

I hope everyone enjoyed this year's April Fools prank. For those who missed it, it can be viewed in all its glory here...

I'm at the office, working away my Good Friday. Not that I'm working particularly hard mind you - just catching up on a bunch of minor jobs that have been waiting in the eaves for the last few months. It's actually not a bad way to spend a day - working at your own pace with no other people around to distract or annoy you. A much more restful atmosphere than the usual office environment.

Anyway, before I go, here's some twisted genius to enjoy ;D

How are those hot little potatoes?

Monday March 29th 2010

Picked up my new computer on Saturday and rather than do anything useful like start migrating data across I spent most of the weekend playing Fallout 3. I think I've overdone it a bit - I'm developing a morbid fear of train tunnels and when I saw a dead cockroach at Subiaco station this morning I almost tried looting it for meat.

I think I'd better go cold turkey for a few days :)

A comment from my work colleague Daniel about the Tree Man.

"If he'd worked for those four months he could of payed to have the tree moved into his backyard"
