Emmortel Update

When I originally signed up for the May 1st Reboot, I actually didn’t expect to hit the date at all. The main reason was that I had something specific in my head, and I’d been out of the Flash loop for around a year, so I’d missed the boat on several clean advancements, and an […]

Batman Begins

Batman Begins full trailer. I can’t wait for this movie. It’s going to be 1986 all over again.

Apple - Trailers - Serenity - index

Serenity Trailer is out and about. Can’t wait for this. (link via Matt)

sIFR 2.0: Rich Accessible Typography

See now this is a pretty interesting little project that I’m surprised the usual culprits on the web haven’t really talked about. Mike Davidson has just released sIFR 2.0: Rich Accessible Typography for the Masses. It’s a smart little method to actually enhance your typography without killing accessibility.

A flash file is created, but not […]

Star Wars Revelations

Star Wars: Revelations. Just downloading this MAMMOTH project right now. I’ll post a much more indepth review once I’ve properly digested everything.

Are you Human?

Since the editors of the book Alison and Dave have updated the official site with a mock up of the concept behind Human? I guess it’s okay to talk about it. A while back I wrote a review of Freewave, which ended with a brief e-mail conversation with the guys and hey presto I’ll be […]

Supersize Me & Running Shoes

Went and got myself some running shoes Saturday. Bearing in mind that I think I’ve only every bought running shoes once in my life, and that was back when I was 12 years old or something stupid like that (i.e before I discovered basketball), and I was amazed by the different styles and ‘technologies’ available. […]

Natalie Imbruglia

Natalie Imbruglia has got a new album out which I’m currently pretty fond of.

Products | Round Two

Round Two is a good thing for FireFox users.

Pamela Anderson Blog

Pamela Anderson blogging? WTF. Damn that’s pretty crazy, although I keep remembering the Quentin Tarantino Blog a while back, which was actually pretty funny.

Emmortel Poem

I’ve been soo busy sorting out Emmortel out for the launch next week that I’ve had no time to write about anything these past couple of days. It’s really strange but what got me pumped up to finish it on time, isn’t the promise I made myself ages ago, but rather a poem that Stathi […]

The Helsinki Roccamatios

While I was in Wales, we went into Fopp, which is without a doubt one of my favourite stores in the UK. The stuff they sell in there is aimed squarely on my kind of demographic, and at prices generally speaking I canâ��t resist. So itâ��s generally a struggle NOT to buy something every single […]

Flash Overdrive

Yesterday I spent the better part of 3 hours scrounging the internet for decent Flash tutorials regarding how to make a dynamic Flash gallery. I stay away from Flash for 1 year and the amount of development on this application is simply astounding. I mean anyone who’s played around with Flash knows what an incredibly […]

Adobe’s Macromedia

Adobe has bought Macromedia. First let me start by saying that I didn’t even know that Macromedia was for sale. The official statements can be read from the Macromedia website or the Adobe website.

Just went over to Pixelsurgeon, and BAM there was the news. My initial reaction to this current turn of events is skeptical […]

The Truth about Rin and Manji

Rin and Manji are two themes created for the WordPress blogging system. Rin is an extension of Manji and between the two of them they have been downloaded over 6000 times from this here site. However I’ve never spoken about why I chose those names. The names were chosen as an homage to the fantastic […]

Hibernation

So I’ve just been for my first run in over a year. Not that I haven’t done any running since last year, just not this particular type of running. London is very strange in that the early hours of the morning are always bright and sunny and incredibly misleading for how the rest of the […]

Eisners

The Eisner nominations for 2005 have been announced. Weird one this year as it’s the first one since Eisner died.

Been waiting a long while to implement this little feature. Go check out Ndesign.

Learning Code

I’ve been having some serious WordPress funkiness going on, something to do with mySQL and stuff. Hardly what I want to talk about today but anyway, if you see an error message, it’s not me having a laugh, just so you know.

Every couple of months I jump into a new software package and gut it […]

Web of thoughts

Chris beat me to it. I’ve had this little post in my draft box for a couple of weeks now, so I guess now is a good a time as any to finish it off and publish it.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while now. This past year has seen me be online a […]

WordPress London Meetup

While ‘conversing’ with Phu Ly, I thought that it would be cool to organise a WordPress meetup in London. I mean why should Denmark have a meetup and the UK be left behind in this area? Now for all those of you thinking to yourself, well how good is it actually going to be? I […]

Dentist Woes

I went to the dentist today. It’s pretty funny you could say that currently my family tradition is medicine (even though a generation before that we were carpenters) and for some reason I just never get the inclination to go to the doctors when something is wrong. I’ve very bad that way, but the rubbish […]

Broken Kode Shop

So I went into central london (as I generally do on a Saturday) and grabbed some comics. While we’re on the train, Stathis tells me we should go via Old Street to grab my prints from Constandinos. I actually got a small tingle in the back of my neck when he said this. Words cannot […]

Tie Rack

So I decided to wear a tie yesterday. I don’t normaly wear ties, as I’ve been getting into my jumpers this winter, simply because I’m a mediteranean soul and need my warmth. However sometime on Thursday night I just had the inclination to wear something a bit smarter. I don’t know what it was, just […]

Flash Block

Well that’s depressing. I’m a MASSIVE Flash fanatic. I love how the program is built, the interface, the freedom it provides. All these things make Flash one of my favourite programs, except for the past year or so I’ve got to say I’ve only really used it for colouring in and completing my images. […]

Tales of the Otori

Ages ago, when I finshed Grass for his Pillow I said that I’d write a better more full review of the great trilogy, Tales of the Otori. This set of books caught my eye in an ad on the tube in Camden. I remember the poster clearly since it’s also the cover of the first […]

Cassettes

Okay so we’re driving down to Wales. I get in the car (it was a rental),

Does it have a CD player….Oh shit, only cassette player? Do they still make those things? What the hell are we going to do Stathi, sing to each other for 3 and a half hours????

Luckily he actually had 3 tapes […]

Wales

I’m down in Cardiff this weekend. Or as the Welsh like to call it Caerdydd! Road trip down with Stathi and his dancing ass, to brighten up his sister Yiota’s who’s a completely stressed bunny. She’s in the final month and a half of her course, so obviously this is where you stress the […]

The Award Winning Rin.

Rin got second place in the Alex King Theme Design Competition!

Well it’s not really an award, it’s a competition I know, but still it’s the closest to an award the WordPress community has so indulge me for a moment while I bask in this feeling, and go through this little acceptance speech, honest it’s not […]
