got soaked on the way home tonight, so I should hate it, but I'm loving this city — and I've never fallen in love with a city this quickly

23October2009 01:48

been up 31hrs now and badly need sleep, but walked a cpl blocks up and down 42nd st and I'm loving nyc already! (people here walk like I do)

22October2009 23:20

arrived safely and checked into the hotel in nyc — beautiful view; chrysler building is half a block away outside my window

22October2009 00:11

but first, travelling into the past — it is now late wednesday afternoon to prep for LA time

22October2009 00:04

about to go into flight mode — will check in on the other side

21October2009 23:01

took a while but I'm all checked in and cleared security — now in the qantas club lounge for breakfast (thanks todd!)

21October2009 07:42

work email account deleted from the iPhone — I am now officially on holiday

19October2009 10:03

must remember to keep mouth shut while travelling: http://xkcd.com/651/ "you can't arrest me if I prove your rules inconsistent"

19October2009 08:14

I've an ever-growing shopping list that I'm trying to put off till new york 4 days hence — now thinking I'll travel with just an empty bag

18October2009 11:44

world's funniest island offered a few good laughs, but if it's setting the bar, makes me pity the world's unfunny islands

17October2009 07:55

awesome breakfast late on a saturday afternoon — this is why I love surry hills!

16October2009 01:56

accidental eye contact in the lift — quick, look away, pretend it didn't happen

15October2009 20:36

enjoyed Rabbit Hole at NIDA last night; thx @jessicasutton and twitter-provided serendipity

14October2009 05:54

foiled; plane aborted takeoff and we're milling about canberra airport while they reboot the plane — the first resort of tech support

14October2009 04:34

flight to sydney cancelled; lucky we got to the airport early and just made another plane; wouldn't be happy with virginblue if 5 mins later

12October2009 08:27

bumpy ride to canberra and now the cab situation is dire, and there's a storm rolling in; missing sunny sydney!

"Wave's UI is a communications program for folks that don't carry on conversations" http://bit.ly/2LFhRz — looking forward to trying it out

09October2009 09:50

did enjoy dan hill's closing #keynote; especially loved the idea of making the invisible data in our environment visible #wds09

09October2009 09:48

fled #wds09 closing drinks but didn't make it home before the downpour so i've stopped at world square for another drink

08October2009 21:31

off to #wds09 day 2; my big (if delayed) discovery from last year was Chatter (twitter, ambient intimacy); wonder what it'll be this year

08October2009 04:35

I'm most interested in what an architecture-like discipline is going to look like in the web space #wds09 #biz

08October2009 04:34

web's big flaw has been that we're too dev-focussed, skipping straight to tools and platform; we need more architecture; so true #wds09 #biz

08October2009 03:51

adobe and microsoft have to sit as far from each other as possible — should be an interesting panel ;) #wds09 #biz

07October2009 23:32

this io9 article's a cpl weeks old now but might be of interest to anyone who enjoyed this morning's #wds09 #keynote http://bit.ly/frho9

06October2009 22:06

thought it was just open source CMSs that were usability nightmares, but now playing with enterprise ones and they're just as painful

05October2009 06:11

got home before the rain, but there's no food and don't feel like going out in the rain — pâté, wine and icecream for dinner then!

03October2009 02:39

small town shopping centres make a fascinating place for people watching; utterly foreign and still somehow familiar

02October2009 07:34

looking like being a wet and gloomy long weekend; have stocked up on new reading material to get me through

30September2009 20:44

Up is really sweet, a delightful adventure, but I don't think it needed to be in 3d

29September2009 09:33

first run in ages and made almost 11km — was shooting for a pb when a sudden stitch hit — didn't think it was worth rupturing a kidney for

28September2009 09:33

such a big/exhausting day I don't even feel like drinking; what's that about?

28September2009 08:46

mildly worried by how easy it was to enormously increase my credit card limit; and on an unrelated note: new york here I come

22September2009 21:44

another martian sky pic; this one closer in colour to what i actually saw — http://bit.ly/dZWcv #sydneyduststorm

22September2009 07:49

won 2 tix to _moon_ at palace this saturday; now looking for a movie buddy; who wants to see a good low budget scifi? make me an offer

21September2009 03:18

newsgator still threatening to switch off sept 10, so looking for an alternative news reader w sync — should work online, on mac, and iphone

21September2009 02:43
