  Avoncliffe Aquaduct, originally uploaded by Andrew Eberlin. I really like the Poladroid application. It processes your photo like a polaroid and produces some very nice effects as you can see with this photo of Avoncliffe Aquaduct.


Delicious

06Aug08

I am really rather keen on the Delicious redesign. I had stopped using it for collating my bookmarks about one year ago in favour of Magnolia. Magnolia looked nicer but it was perhaps a little too demanding in the number of clicks it required for me to get to where I wanted to be. However, […]


Songs in A & E

17May08

I like the Spiritualized website. I like Ladies and Gentleman We are Floating in Space very much. I am listening to it now. “Come Together” has just seeped into “I think I’m in Love.” N gave it to me for my 30th Birthday over 10 years ago. We stayed at Grove Lodge on our frequent […]


It is here at last. Flickr on video. I will have to work within the limitations of 90 seconds, but it can be done. And now that I have grown accustomed to iMovie 08 (and indeed I think I may prefer it to iMovie 06), it really is very easy to create and share. My […]


It is not often that I am moved to write two posts in one day, but on this beautiful spring day I feel that it is beholden on me to mention the beauty of Photojojo’s Photo Time Capsule. I signed up for it a few weeks ago and have received my first Time Capsule email today […]


BBC

01Apr08

Some weeks ago, the BBC did a lovely job updating the design of their home page and it was always a little disappointing clicking on a story only to be led to a page clad in the old design.  Today I have noticed that the whole website has the new design and very nice it […]


2 Things

13Mar08

2 things have caught my interest in the last 2 days and I feel that you may benefit from these insightful links to said things.   First, that genius wrapped in pure unbounded intelligence called Mr Stephen Fry has started doing a podcast, or podgram as he calls it. I have only listened to the […]


eMusic

09Jan08

Today I will extol the virtues of eMusic. An  alternative to iTunes and one that specialises in obscure music rather than your chart topping, mind numbing, soul sapping, TV talentless show wannabee music. And that is where the delight is. For £8.99 per month, I get 30 songs to download. All music is free of […]


BBC iPlayer for Mac is here and it’s not too bad. I have just tried watching the first part of the witty Armstrong & Miller show and found the streaming to be a tad slow which means that the programme often has to pause to catch up. Also, when you look at the programme in […]


Good Widgets

09Oct07

This looks like a very interesting way to show off your photos on a website or blog. It is very easy to set up. If you have a Flikr account, it is seamless. It also has some nice slide show variants. It was recommended by the excellent new Freelance Switch Podcast, which I also recommend […]
