Where the fuck did 2007 go?
…and it’s that time again, for each month’s first post’s first sentence. It’s made realise (yet again) how little I actually manage to write on this damned thing; if I made resolutions (I don’t) and of it were 1st January (it isn’t), I might resolve to actually kick my arse in gear and get more of what I think into intarweb posts (there’s generally little point in writing about what I do, as that (while largely satisfying to me) is rarely of sufficient note to, y’know, share with the world sort of thing).
January
ramtops and I had a thoroughly fine time last night, with (in order of appearance)
agc,
purple_peril,
gmul, Pat and Dave (WANOLJ).
February
It occurs to me that I’ve posted nothing here for weeks.
March
Today’s The Beat on the World Service is worth a listen for Mark Coles interviewing Ry Cooder about his new album.
April
Go read danah boyd oncyberbullying; that woman writes more sense on tech/society/youth issues than most other people put together.
May
Today I’m mostly doing a variety of “dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/hdaX” after a sequence of less drastic deletions, service shutdowns and other housekeeping.
June
July
Well, that was a load of utter shite, wasn’t it?
August
prompted by
hirez, here’s a question for youall:
September
Being ill has meant that I’ve not been motivated to post about this year’s TWSC, which is a pity, so I think I’ll write a little bit now, as I am at least functioning in some slight fashion mentally (if still hitting a periodic wall whenever I think I’m finally through it all).
October
Given that Diana is dead (I’m sorry if that comes as a shock to you).
November
Happy birthday to
ramtops!
December
ramtops and I are just returned from Colston Hall, where we experienced an extraordinarily emotionally charged Show of Hands gig.

For most people, deciding produces poor results because it only specifies what you aim to do not how you plan to do it.
(or whatever method you choose) has been shown to be much more effective.
