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

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

i want them, but won't b in town, so RT @rachelhills Last chance to win free tix to #media140 in Sydney http://tiny.cc/BELqQ

20September2009 04:55

holiday all booked and ready to go! 2 weeks new york, 3days washington dc, 3 days boston

19September2009 07:02

Push is a surprisingly good movie — gritty contemporary scifi done right — the feel that heroes and xmen go for but never really sustain

18September2009 10:18

malik yusef's GOOD morning GOOD night — dawn _and_ dusk — are an incredible pair of albums, both as spoken word poetry and as hip hop

16September2009 01:42

#html5 @adactio recommends (http://bit.ly/qJtqN) formalising <cite> just how i wanted to use it almost 3 years ago (http://bit.ly/3ZHOCp)

cafe sydney for @anthonyphoward's 50th last night; great evening with the family; food was incredible, and view of the harbour not half bad

14September2009 05:33

wireframing all day is confusing my brain — I'm seeing little annotated boxes everywhere (my reality is augmented)

12September2009 08:37

turned pink from a day of drinking in the sun; hoping is temporary and I'll be back to white in the morning; beautiful day tho, and relaxing

09September2009 10:14

love this concept: his and hers dna "portraits", for romantic geeks — http://bit.ly/S6KxD

07September2009 10:21

published my review of _Fighting_ — http://bit.ly/19S35I — incredibly constructed film — deceptively simple story, with beautiful characters

07September2009 08:30

evil storm dumped on me just as my run was getting started, and cleared as soon as I'd aborted and hopped in the shower; no run tonight then

06September2009 01:37

why I love hillsbus: a lateral thinking approach to timetables — bus that's scheduled to run every 30 mins arrives exactly 15 mins late

03September2009 07:10

the week was looking up and I got hit with a jury summons :( — shortly before my holiday tho, so gonna have to get out of it

03September2009 02:54

lunch from Via Abercrombie — delish sandwich, if enormous — ht http://bit.ly/U7t0F — worth queueing for

curious idea: "while the constant flow of digital images has its own meaning, the individual image has none" — http://catandgirl.com/?p=2148

30August2009 09:39

my review of Inglourious Basterds — http://bit.ly/wYOuu — short version: good, but (film) geeky, hard going / too long; very Tarantino

26August2009 23:04

saw a bunch of great TED talks last night — watching with a group of interesting ppl makes it even better (thx @melalicious & @kapookababy)

26August2009 06:26

wrapped 3 days of workshops in canberra — really productive but utterly exhausting; am now enjoying a beer while waiting for the plane

23August2009 22:09

beautifully warm in sydney and I'm off to cold and wet canberra for the next cpl days

23August2009 03:56

liking the vid for Jay-Z's Run This Town — http://bit.ly/4CP6Zo — imagery borrows heavily from 2Pac's California Love, but much slicker

22August2009 09:41

cafe lounge big breakfast _so_ good, but really shouldn't have had it for lunch — I'm still not at all hungry

22August2009 06:37

finished watching michael mann's Collateral — incredible film, great acting (even from tom cruise) and looks amazing

20August2009 22:29

off for a second day of workshops; yesterday's was hard work but ultimately productive; hopefully today's a little easier

19August2009 02:40

read _How Twitter works in theory_ — fascinating, and gives me lots of Chatter ideas — http://bit.ly/VMEmN

18August2009 10:58

got the tv set up & receiving digital; felt like a great achievement until, after 5 mins viewing, I remembered why I don't watch television

15August2009 05:57

district 9 was really good scifi; the mix of live action and doco-style and CG worked; am very impressed with the look from the RED cameras

15August2009 01:22

ticket bought for district 9 this arvo; been looking forward to this movie since seeing Alive in Joburg yrs ago (well b4 d9 even dreamt of!)
