Dealing with drugs in sport

Friday, March 30th, 2007

The ‘Chaser’ guys are in the news again, this time for turning up to the airport to greet the West Coast Eagles football club. WEST Coast players were ambushed by an eagle mascot with white powder on its beak when the team arrived at Sydney Airport last night. Many of the players, including captain Chris [...]

Friday, March 30th, 2007

Big news, well for me, DigitalBurn got stumbled and in the process has started getting some significant traffic. Woohoo! DigitalBurn is a site I set up focusing on digital music and audio recording. Stumbleupon can definitely bring in a lot of traffic quickly.

The sad decline in toilet etiquette

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

I think it’s about time that they start teaching ‘toilet etiquette’ in schools. Clearly it has taken a back seat of late, and this can only been a bad thing. In the past 12 months there has been a noticeable decrease in the standard of toilet etiquette displayed in the workplace. I have no scientific [...]

Nas – ‘Illmatic’ (Album Review)

Tuesday, March 27th, 2007

The 1994 debut album from Nas, ‘Illmatic’, is highly regarded. It turned up at number 400 in Rolling Stone’s list of the top 500 greatest albums of all time. Being a lemming, I thought it was about time that I checked it out, so I picked up the 10th anniversary edition (that includes the six [...]

Error messages and the new office assistant

Monday, March 26th, 2007

I’ve had my fair share of weird error messages, both on my PC and my Mac, so that’s probably why I could muster up a smirk when I saw this all new error message. Now I have another reason to slam my head into my desk I think it’s time I upgraded my office assistant [...]

Should you court controversy for high volume traffic?

Sunday, March 25th, 2007

I’ve seen quite a few people lately talking about the “art of link baiting”. If you’ve never heard of it before, link baiting is when you post something (content or feature) on a website that somehow “baits” viewers/readers to place links to it from other websites. Why would you want to do this? In the [...]

Personal goals for 2007

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

I’ve done quite a bit of reading lately on goal setting. Very Tony Robbins of me I know. In any case, I thought it was time that I set a few personal goals for 2007. You can check them out via the ‘goals’ link at the top of the page. Hopefully I’ll maintain the motivation, [...]

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

This post is absolute gold, the top 10 Action Hero One Liners. Very pleasing to see ‘Predator’ well represented! Sadly though, my all time favorite didn’t make an appearance. “If it bleeds, we can kill it!” – Arnie as Dutch aka. Captain Obvious.

The power of swicki’s

Thursday, March 22nd, 2007

I’ve had an Xbox related swicki for quite a while now. I can’t remember why I really started with it. Probably for the same reasons I start most things, because I can, and because I want to see how things work. Before you ask, no, I’m not Sylar from Heroes. What is a swicki? Well [...]
