The big question - was it the new 997 or an old 996?!? :-)

Do you know any computer numpties?

January 28, 2007 · Filed Under Life in general, Tech · Comment 

I do. Quite a few actually! ;-)

Well, if like me, you get called up to help them turn on their machine, create a folder, attach an iPod, it can be difficult if they are in a remote location. So this site caught my eye - Fog Creek co-pilot! Great name for starter!

Here’s what you do:

This could be REALLY useful to some people and I think a day pass only costs $5. Bargain! Worth a look if you need to help your numpty mates (hi Nick!) ;-)

Want an iPhone now?

I do, I do!! If you really do, then I have the answer friends - just have a look here and have a printer, some card, some scissors and glue at the ready!

(Is is really 10 months away until the UK is going to get them? I feel a sneaky trip to NY coming on!).

Star Wars!

How about some serious data?

January 27, 2007 · Filed Under Life in general · Comment 

Lucasfilm, responsible for Star Wars of course and Industrial Light and Magic, is going to need a computer or two for their CGI work. Now, I always thought it wasn’t going to be a Mesh laptop with an AMD chip that was going to be doing the work ;-)

Instead they have a dedicated data centre, which is absolutely state of the art and you can see it here. Well worth the 3 minutes to watch. Mid blowing stuff.

2006 Top Brands

January 26, 2007 · Filed Under Life in general · Comment 

Each year, Brand Channel ask a bunch of people (around 3600 this time) what brands have the biggest impact on them during the year. Once again, Apple and Google are heading the pack. Of particular note are the entries of YouTube and Wikipedia into the top spots - looks like the web is getting more powerful in terms of branding.
What would I have said? Probably Apple and Google :-)

Apple - I use a Mac every day, day in and day out. I listen to my iPod. I tell people to buy a Mac instead of a BORING Pc (listen up will ya’ Alan?!). I love Apple! (And as to the iPhone… well, I will be getting two!).

Google - I use Gmail, Google Reader, Google Calendar, Google analytics for this site and these are set as my home pages on most of my machines, including the work pc.

What brands would you have chosen??

Not a good photo at all…. they need some snow in a BIG way! It was a bit different when we were there in 93′-95′.
