Well, left the shores of employment for the seas of uncertainty on Friday. You'd have thought that what with that, two gigs, London Open House, some really stimulating pub conversations and a couple of videos, I'd have plenty of blog material. You'd be right.
Sadly, I only have internet access from 6 pm to 8 am, and that's exactly the time I'm either a) out or b) sleeping. Sigh.
I may, at some point, recap my weekend, or pull out random thoughts from it. Of course, I may just forget them all...
Hmm, code2html would have been useful an hour ago (before my tech talk). This is my light relief for the day.
As discussed on (void), the Mirror's commemorative story on the WTC bombing (I was going to add 'Pentagon', but that's already forgotten compared to the photogenic towers). It joins the Guardian's string of comment pieces by the likes of Martin Amis and Ian Mcewan.
This is one of those times I wish (void) had public archives, for Alex Robinson writes a very good critique, but it boils down to 'the pornography of terror'. It's interesting to me how, in the absence of real news, there are still people prologing the countdown in the phony war. People seem to be dropping the infoshare (nice name, Matt) because of this- troop movements aren't exactly what people signed up to last week. Ho hum.
This is definitely an odd time to start a blog. Mind you, this has been an odd year. We'll see if this actually accumalates posts, or whether I use my use.perl.org journal, or if I do manual updates to husk.org instead. Ah well.
