My lifetime achievement? You're looking
at it, baby...
03/14/2005 05:52 PMSo I'm going to start this post with a comment that someone just
posted on my site, because I think it's possibly the funniest thing
I've ever read and I'm too sheepish to start the damn thing in any
other way:
Congrats on the Bloggie! I don't suppose you grew up in
York, did you? Cos I used to babysit for a kid called Thomas Coates...
and if it was you, you may well remember me, seeing as I was the
babysitter who burnt your house down while babysitting for you... for
which I am supremely sorry.
Thanks for the comment Clare, but no, I'm afraid to say that you
never burned down my family home. I almost feel guilty that I'm the
wrong Tom after such a heartfelt apology!
Anyway, so this was all a sneaky way of talking about the Bloggies
which were announced today. I
was really surprised when plasticbag.org got nominated for
anything and I'm even more surprised that I won anything. But to win
both Best British Weblog and Lifetime Achievement... Wow... The only
real response that I can come up with is that I clearly don't deserve
it, and I'm so sorry that my site's been of such mediocre
quality over the last year. But particular thanks to everyone anyway
because it's completely bloody awesome!
Cred as ever goes to awesome and totally potent co-nominees over
both categories who mostly rock way more than I do. I reassure myself
that they're all going to win the greater karmic battle because
they're way more deserving. So first off - all of you should go read
more English weblogs and stuff cos they're great:
And woot to all the lifetimers. God we're so old...
Oh and to help dissolve the horror of my ever-expanding ego, it's
probably only appropriate that I burst my own bubble by posting this
hideous picture that Paul
Hammond took of me shortly after I heard the news. Mmm.
Classy.

deserve to buy music from anyone but Apple -- and in its own way,
that's as disrespectful a message as the one that Real has sometimes
communicated in the past. By Harry McCracken, PC World (via

11/14/2003 10:17 AMSoftware, called MyTunes, lets users of iTunes for Windows share songs
purchased through the iTunes Music Store. One of the features of
iTunes 4, released in May, allowed users to stream music from their
playlists to other users, but the feature was removed in iTunes
version 4.0.1 when software was created that allowed the stream to be
saved, effectively allowing users to illegally share music. MyTunes
works in a different manner, apparantly overriding the Digital Rights

Apple's miniPod -- too little for too
much
01/07/2004 06:08 PMAlex Salkever of Business Week humorously sums up what many people
think about the new miniPod: "Far less capacity in a slightly smaller
device for nearly the same cost? Sorry, Steve, this tune is off key."
SMALLER BUT WIMPIER. Less music in a device marginally smaller at
about the same price. Get it? I didn't, and few others will, either.
In fact, while I was watching Jobs give his spiel, my mind replayed
the infamous scene from the cult classic mockumentary Spinal Tap where
the dim rock band tries to explain that dials on their amplifiers go
to 11 -- and that's what makes them louder. I was left with the same
sense of befuddlement after watching Jobs show off the smaller but
much wimpier miniPod.

Apple's DLA strategy
Apple's DLA strategy
07/26/2004 11:07 PM Apple just announced
a new iTunes mobile version that Motorola will load onto their
"mass-market music phones" in the first half of next year.
TheFeature's Carlo Longino gives his quick take on the deal:
Plenty of handsets today are capable of playing mp3s, but
presumably none do it with the ease and grace -- or inherent coolness
-- of Apple's products. It's an interesting move for Apple, which has
said in the past the iTunes music store is a loss leader designed to
help sell iPods. Presumably, they want to take new Moto phone users
and turn them into iPod buyers... That, or this is just the first
step towards the much-clamored-for wireless iPod.

Marc's bit.....
See! I told you so!
You think Apple still thinks of themselves as a computer company?
I doubt it. They've been milking the Mac and their users for years
and they're about to launch their entirely new model - which will be
based upon enabling people's digital lifestyles.
Music is just the first step. And creativity.
You'll soon see .Mac and Rendevouz play a big part in Apple's
comprehensive solution for the digital convergence. Shared calendars
for the family, tied into your vacation albums and home movies. Throw
in nutrional guides, pick-up and drop-off schedules and after-school
activities - and we'll finally have iCommunity.
Apple is showing the world - right now - that end-user's
experiences actually DO count.
That's why the Mac was always the best and why the iPod is the
best. They're doing our R&D for us!

they are on the train

Apple's Ads are too misleading
Apple's Ads are too misleading
06/11/2004 01:07 PMThe Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) in Britain has several
objections to Apple’s new G5 ads. There were three objections,
the machine was “the world’s fastest personal
computer”, that it was “the first with a 64-bit
processor”, and that “the systems built around the G5 can
shatter the 4-gigabyte memory ceiling that limits every other PC on
earth”. The last two were rejected, but the first was not after
an independent test comparing it to the Dell Dimension 8300 and the
Dell Precision 650.
