Over the last while I’ve not spared the BBC in terms of the ridiculous rigmarole that is iPlayer – how they encode at least three versions (Windows DRM, Desktop Flash and the iPhone version). It’s annoying because it was license fees which paid for it. ITV and Channel 4 have long escaped my beady eye … Continue reading “Stupid DRM”
Over the last while I’ve not spared the BBC in terms of the ridiculous rigmarole that is iPlayer – how they encode at least three versions (Windows DRM, Desktop Flash and the iPhone version). It’s annoying because it was license fees which paid for it.
ITV and Channel 4 have long escaped my beady eye but I’m kinda fed up that while the world is consuming platform-neutral video, these companies insist on putting out video which can only be consumed by someone with access to Windows Media Player 11. As they’re an ad-supported network, I can’t understand why they’d want to restrict things this way.
Compared to them, the BBC are doing a stellar job with iPlayer – I, for one, wouldn’t be without it.
You know you’ve made it when you’ve made it to the front page of ShinyShiny. They’re offering up thousands of words, and will link straight from their online dictionary to your site. Their explanation is that they’re “exploring what different words mean to different people” but at $1 per letter, they’re also building themselves a … Continue reading “ShinyShiny highlights The Big Word Project”
You know you’ve made it when you’ve made it to the front page of ShinyShiny.
They’re offering up thousands of words, and will link straight from their online dictionary to your site. Their explanation is that they’re “exploring what different words mean to different people” but at $1 per letter, they’re also building themselves a significant nest egg – so far there have been 5,500 words purchased and redefined.
Lee Munroe, one of the guys behind The Big Word Project, talked at BarCamp and was trapped by me at the recent sell-out Belfast OpenCoffeeClub meeting while I ranted about Digital Content and the like. He also said he wouldn’t be taking a space in the CoWorkingBelfast site. Splitter!
Good to see more coverage. By your fifty thousandth word you should have paid off your student loans!
HerIndoors is looking to get a HTC Touch Diamond and the only company that seems to be offering them is Orange. Orange looks good in this. £30 a month for 600 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited mobile browsing. That beats O2’s iPhone tariff. Not so good.

HerIndoors is looking to get a HTC Touch Diamond and the only company that seems to be offering them is Orange.
Orange looks good in this. £30 a month for 600 minutes, unlimited texts and unlimited mobile browsing. That beats O2’s iPhone tariff.
Not so good. The “unlimited” browsing is for TWO MONTHS IN EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS. After that they get to charge their ridiculous data rates for browsing. Then it’s £5 a month for an OPT-OUT data plan which is still only evenings and weekends.
When you compare this deal to O2’s iPhone tariffs, it makes the iPhone look like a steal.
is there ANY carrier that offers the HTC Touch Diamond subsidised with a decent data plan?

Ian Robinson is the harbinger of bad news:
Tennent’s Lager regrets to announce that the Tennent’s Vital festival will not take place in Belfast this August.
Due to the difficult conditions prevalent within the wider festival market this year the festival has been unable to secure a sufficiently high standard of talent.
That said, it’d be very unlikely that I’d be in the country anyway.

Well done, O2. You’re the best.
The rush has started. Hundreds of geeks are now tapping in their upgrade codes into the O2 web site. And it’s starting to creak under the strain.

The rush has started. Hundreds of geeks are now tapping in their upgrade codes into the O2 web site. And it’s starting to creak under the strain.
The bill for this upgrade will likely be borne by employers as iPhone 3G upgraders will be taking Friday off work as the package needs a signature and will be delivered by courier on the 11th July.
iPhone 3G 16GB is currently only available in Black.
