Own your identity by Marco Arment: If you care about your online presence, you must own it. I do, and that’s why my email address has always been at my own domain, not the domain of any employer or webmail service. … Sadly, most people don’t care about giving control of their online identity to [...]

There’s going to be a Freo Bloggers’ meetup in three weeks, at X-Wray cafe on August 2nd, from about 5:30PM. Photo by Pedro Figueiredo [CC-BY-SA-2.0] Partly inspired by the activity starting to happen on Freospace blogs (and the possibilities of disagreement therein!), but mainly just because it’s nice to have a beer after work and [...]

I’ve just returned from the official launch of Freospace, the council’s new publishing platform for precincts (not to be too alliterative about it or anything), at the North Fremantle bowling club. It’s a collection of blogs, one for each precinct, to which precinct members can post news and whatnot—mostly minutes of meetings so far, but [...]

Thanks to all the modern things I have just this morning become aware of NaBloPoMo, which seems to be the alternative, for those lacking in ambition (like myself), to NaNoWriMo. The idea is to write one post per day for the whole month. Why? Well, I’m not quite sure, but it seems that lots of [...]

Right. Well then. My idea, this week, is to write more. So far, I have failed. I have nothing to say. There is nothing going on, nothing worth talking about. But I want to write. * * * I have six weeks and two days to go at IBM. I’ve bought my train ticket, and [...]
