RIP iPod Nano 1st gen. sometime in 2005 - 27th...
So, yesterday morning my faithful 1gb iPod nano that had been with me for nearly 4 years finally came to it’s time of dying. To be fair, it was on the way out. For some reason, the scrollwheel wasn’t registering that it was being scrolled sometimes and it had a nasty habit of making itself louder or quieter at inappropriate times but the biggest fault was the fact that it decided to...

A little while ago, I posted about the Orange - T-Mobile merger.
Well, this morning it seems the merger has been thrown a major confidence boost after Apple and Orange have agreed a deal for Orange to retail the iPhone model.
Read about it on the BBC
Sweet :)

Best film.
Probably not like… ever, but its good. nonetheless.
FUCK YEAH.
I love HTML.
I’ve just spent the past half’n hour, instead of working, playing around with my Tumblr. Now the ‘tagged posts’ links I used to have in my description form part of the Sidebar and each have their own little wrapper, in keeping with the rest of the theme. And my Spotify playlist is now a nice little button further down the page that you can click instead of a...
Thanks to “Custom HTML” I now have shiny buttons instead of links in my navplane :)
Thanks doinwork! : )
Can you design a button for Spotify playlists? That would be ace :)

Brand New - Daisy
Ok, i’m gonna be honest with you.
I’ve played this once. Last night. Whilst my girlfriend was round, whilst looking for my V5C. Which I’ve very securely misplaced. Before I start, here are a few basic facts. The first Brand New song I heard was Sic Transit Gloria, at the time my favourite band catalogue consisted of KoRn, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit and Hell Is For Heroes. I still...

“I’ll be honest.

– Mr. Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrats) - Annual party conference 2009
Could it be? I might have found a policitian I actually like?
I’m really looking forward to getting the black and white film in my Olympus camera developed. I’ve got like 5 more shots to use up but I’ve took some dodgy little photos that I’m hoping are gonna look pretty interesting. :)
I’m hungry >.<.

I honestly reckon I just saw Alistair Darling outside Three Cooks in Cov. Like 10 minutes ago. He was reading a Telegraph and eating a sausage roll. No joke…

This is a long shot, but i’m slightly desparate and kinda hoping someone will ‘tumbl’ upon this… If anyone wants 2 tickets to go see Bombay Bicycle Club at Birmingham Academy 3 next Tuesday. GET IN TOUCH WITH ME! Email me: johnny_w@live.co.uk or if your on Facebook get in touch with me there.
I’d well like to go, but after writing my car off a month or so ago, I now...

Yo Facebook. I’m really happy for you and I’mma let you finish telling me that ‘something went wrong’ but Myspace had one of the most unstable frameworks of all time. ¬_¬.
I couldn’t be bothered to take a screencap, photoshop Kanye West into the screencap, pointing at the error message then take the above text and shape it into a speech bubble. So instead you get...

It kinda scares me, but at the same time makes me feel slightly proud, that other people listen to FT. I remember about 5 years ago I was first getting into Million Dead and my then Girlfriend at the time said, “he also does...

Why is my Tumblr wire just full of Japanese girls with their boobs / bits out?
I’m not complaining, I just wondered?

Nick Stevens is probably one of my favourite photographers. He does alot of work for Kerrang Magazine, but he also contributes to Rolling Stone. Here’s one of his photos:
Thats Guy Picciotto from Fugazi who is probably one the coolest guitarists of all time and currently my flavour of the month after I picked up Repeater for the first time :)

So I just stumbled across something after checking through the blogs I follow, which was blogged by Kapi and its something called Dropbox.
Also the very recent news of a merger between Orange & T-Mobile re-perked my interest, a fair few years ago I was shown something called ePIC which is best left to Wikipeida to describe, but its basically a flash move. Just click the link. This pretty much...
I’ve just been offered £300 for the pile of scrap metal, upholstery and plastic that was previously my 98 1.2 Peugeot 106. I feel like i’ve won the lottery. Never would I have sold it for £300!
Ok, admitidly, they only offered me 38.45% of the value I brought it for but i’m still reasonably pleased. It just means I can’t get £2,000 in this government scrappage scheme...
Two things
Should I buy a 1996 VW Golf GL 1.8 petrol? Its.. uh very nice :) But the paint is looking a little bit on the faded side. Not that that would bother me because its a VOLKSWAGEN!!
I’m definately buying a new Ipod Nano. They now have a gimmicky little video camera that has a resolution of 640 x 480, and FM radio, and they speak CHINESE?! I could do with a new one anyway since i’m still...
Online Disinhibition Effect →
bestofwikipedia:
The core concept of the online disinhibition effect refers to a loosening (or complete abandonment) of social restrictions and inhibitions that would otherwise be present in normal face-to-face interaction during interactions with others on the Internet. Because of the loss of inhibition, some users may exhibit benign tendencies; people may become more affectionate, more willing...

- I’ve lost 31p so far today. This morning I left 10p in the part where you collect your change and your train tickets after the smug suited chap behind the bullet proof glass prints them off for you. Then I lost 20p in Wilkinsons as I was buying a Muller fruit corner after taking it out of wallet with the intention of using it to pay for my yoghurt. I dropped it and it...

This morning I got snapped at by an elderly businessman. Because I stopped suddenly on the steps down to Coventry ‘underpass’ on my way to work to photograph a bunch of Metros that had been strewn across the floor. He was old anyway, probably didn’t understand. And he was wearing one of those horrid pinstripe Suits, you know the kind where the stripes are really OBVIOUS. I call...
Do you think that when the Romans were building Rome, they got together once every Tuesday morning and debated about why a brick was a certain shape?

Few thoughts on the following things:
T Mobile + Orange = Interesting. The companies intend to operate separately at least for the first 18 months, so except some cross network incentives like “Free calls to T-Mobile customers” or something. I’m an Orange fanboy and consequently an Orange customer, so i’m slighty intrigued to see what happens over the next 12 months.

I had this fantastic, life changing idea that I’d been thinking about all week this week.
Then I realised.
Plaxo had already done it.
Gutted.

Luncheon meat.
It’s like they took normal meat. Sucked all the life and taste out of it. Pressed it all together and carved it up into silly little circles that your mum puts on sandwiches for you ¬_¬.

I’ve invented a new thing. It’s called lovetags. Basically they look like the above ↑ and you add them to the end of your blog posts, and people can use them to find other users that love the same things as they do, or to find users that love a particular thing…
I think i’m onto something.
I had something else to say and I’ve forgotten it now.

I dont think I went into enough detail earlier, I was kind of rushing. So yeah this is the camera I’m re-selling for the 2nd time. Look:
You could look at it or bid for it on ebay by clicking: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220474064868&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT
I'm still selling that camera,
http://bit.ly/JGNMu It’s nice. I had sold it but the woman I sold it to wanted me to post to Nigerian pirates… So i’ve relisted it.
BID! :)
