"From the shore, they look like tiny dots slowly making
their way out past the breakers. They're the software vendors
positioning themselves to catch the Enterprise RSS wave. My, that's a
lot of tiny dots...." [MoonWatcher]
RSS was big in 2004, but next year is going
to be something else. It's killing me that I can't say more, but I
know of two major library vendors that will make big announcements
about RSS in 2005. It's going to be a fun year!

Wow. What a long time it has been since I last posted to
plasticbag.org. And what have I done in the meantime? I've been back
to Norfolk to see my family, experienced the wonders of Christmas,
seen Return of the King,
watched ten hours of videos with my little brother, watched the snow
come down and get washed away, struggled through lots of music
television, had my first frank conversation with my little brother
about being gay, opened and given lots of gifts, battled back to
London via bus and train, gone back to work for a few days before
late-night driving off to Cornwall for New Year with a selection of
friends and friends of friends wherein was had much late-night
drinking, (indoor) swimming, fondue-ing, walks in the wet and the
dark, eating of beef and roaming around. Since I last posted I've
travelled about eight hundred miles in total, including trips to
Penzance for shopping, Newquay for boots and Bath for Sally Lunn's. I've driven
through Indian Queens, passed by Splatt and circumnavigated Pityme. I've also read a lot of The Social Life of Information (more
on how much I want to burn that particular waste of headspace later),
thought a lot about Tivo and Social
Software, played a lot of Knights of the Old Republic and both
been bought and bought for others some of the most wonderfully
entertaining porcelain cups I've ever seen. All in
all, an eventful and entertaining couple of weeks.
Next up is trying to get my head together to start a new project at
work (interesting one this - should have really positive, interesting
and coincidentally weblog-friendly effects on BBC Radio sites), trying to
assemble my thoughts for a conference at Olympia in a couple of
month's time, trying to work out whether to propose a participant session for this year's ETCon (which I'm
still hoping I'm going to attend), while apparently also trying to
score maximum points on self-created, self-destructive and highly
non-fun-for-all-the-family games like, "How quickly and effectively
can I alienate everyone I work with?", "Be an arse!" and "How fat,
weird and bearded can one man become?". What did you guys get up
to?

REVIEW: Web Surf, Watch Video on PSP (AP)04/06/2005 03:47 PM AP - In the PlayStation Portable, Sony Corp. has produced a
magnificent piece of hardware. It's so fine that using it just for
games seems a pity.

New Year to all of you. I hope this year will be better than the
last. With the tsunami and all of the uh-oh's of last year, I don't
think I can really say "happy" anything right now. :-|
If you check the left sidebar under the recently commented entries,
you'll see a new section called "One Year Ago." These are the entires
that were gracing the site one year ago today...sort of. I think it's
a little off due to the time zones, so it may be a day early or late.

$14 into $1,000 in one year04/29/2004 04:16 PM
I'm not a fan of followup posts, but this is cool enough to
mention. Remember the
challenging question of how to turn $14 into $1,000? BirdD0g has taken
that noodle-scratcher of a problem and turned it into his personal
challenge, and he's taking everyone along for the ride at 14bucks.com. He's got until April
15, 2005 to turn it over into a grand, which sounds like plenty of
time, but that's a lot of profit to turn over (7000% return on
investment). Who wants to take my $14 bet it doesn't happen? Grok Description matches for 1 year performance video - please watch for one year GrokA matches for 1 year performance video - please watch for one year
