Going mobile

May 23rd, 2009

The one or two of you who know me, will know about my quest for the ultimate mobile device. While my grail quest will have to be the subject for another post and another time (it’s a long story). I just wanted to tip a nod to Word Mobi a mobile wordpress client for symbian mobile phones.

It works!

Fru-Con-strat-fu-sion

May 9th, 2009

I’m frustrated because my lawnmower broke while I was mowing and now I cant fix it or finish my mowing.

I’m confused because I didn’t really want to mow the lawn and now I can’t. I should be happy, but I’m actually frustrated, which is confusing.

To top it all off, I’ve washed my hands like five times now and they still feel and smell like they’re covered in engine oil, which is depressing.

So I’m fru-con-fu-strat-de…. Er.
I’m not happy.

Google Translate

April 25th, 2009

Like me, dear reader, you’ve probably used Google Translate to translate the odd phrase, maybe de-code the odd spam e-mail or try to reverse engineer some Engrish from a user manual for that foot spa you got on eBay for all of £2.97.

Did you ever try running a whole website through it though? It’s actually quite cool! Take a look at this website translated into Japanese:

planet-nifty.co.uk in Japanese

Looking out of date? Check out the latest nifty lookin’ planet-nifty here.

Of course, you can run pretty much any website through there and I strongly suggest that you do!

London Eye Cruise

Just a small snippet of what I did on my holidays. A cruise on the London Eye, complete with panoramic views and hoards of tourists… like me.
