Guy has some new rules for revolutionaries. And as usual they're hilarious as well as informative. How to drive your competition crazy. I have always welcomed competition. I don't want to be a single player in a market. Sure, if I'm honest, then I do feel a twinge of sadness ...

There's a difference between "eat your own dog food" and "be blindly stupid". I never liked that term anyway. I'd rather "eat my own cooking". Why does it have to be "dog food"?

Wired has a great article today. It's just a collection of quotes from Steve Jobs, the half-Syrian silicon Valley wunderkind who's achieved more than most of us can hope to. Especially seeing as he was a millionaire before the age of 30. I've failed utterly on that one but let's ...

We're getting a lot of blog spam. I'm not comfortable fiddling with b2evo's somewhat mind-numbing PHP, so we'll be switching blog software at some point in the near future. I'll keep this blog here as a read-only historical blog so that links/trackbacks still work, but no further comments ...

So it arrived.
I'd had some experience with the Core Duo Macs through a 1.83 GHz iMac which arrived in the office about a month ago. It was quick, but hardly portable which meant I didn't get to snatch a play as often as I might like. I dallied with SheepShaver ...

I remember when I first wrote a web page that had a table in it which contained more than just text. It didn't work on the majority of our university's web browsers (Mosaic was the most commonly used, although Netscape 2.0 could show the images just fine). Very ...
