Well not much to report really have been busy with work as per usual. Coming up to a big deadline, so just trying to get everything finished off. What have been upto, well a couple of weeks back I went and saw Aimee Mann at the Shepard’s Bush Empire. That was a good night, other than the usual weekly outings have not been upto much. Not had much time for gaming in the last couple of weeks, got Bomberman on the DS a few weeks back, which has been quite entertaining but I need to find other DS owners to make that more fun. The PSP comes out in a couple of weeks not sure if I’m going to pre-order, the new V2 firmware has a web browser built in so that is quite cool.
The Nokia 6680 is going from strength to strength, Apple have added iSync support so everything syncs very nicely. SMS from the desktop is working as well. On the techy side have been hacking some Python for fun, as well as starting to look at AJAX. Some nice things I can see doing with this for some of the UI’s and I want to webify in the coming months.
A quick summary of movies that I have seen in the last couple of weeks. Wedding Crashers which is the funniest film ever. Fantastic Four which was better than I was expecting. War of the Worlds which was pretty good modernisation of a classic science fiction piece. Want to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Stealth and The Descent. All watched a whole batch of new DVDs but none come to mind right now.
Obvious the big news has been the attacks on London, thankfully all of the people I know were not directly effected, though there were a couple of close calls. Right now security in London has been tigthened and things are certainly different. In my mind things could have been worse, only 56 deaths is amazing when you consider that in a confined area like a tunnel could have colapsed. To add insult to injury one of the consequences of this was the wrongful killing of Jean Charles de Menezes by the Police. The second wave of attacks seems to have gone wrong, though I think I will reserve judgement on that until more facts are established.
