Three reasons to be cheerful this weekend
- 3 clear days off to get on with my Ultraversity work.At last it feels like I can make some real headway towards getting module 1 finished. I’ve done the La3 ( double loop ) already using webnotes, which was satisfying.
- I’ve tamed my information overload – phew!.I’ve been through a messy learning period of switching browsers, switching how I read webfeeds ( RSS ), expanding my use of new tools, and subscribing to the same groups in different ways – but now it’s finally all coming together. I’ve mainly shifted from client programs to web applications, alleviating platform dependent problems and allowing almost perfect synchronisation between locations. So, much less Opera, Safari, NetNewsWire, Agent and IE. The blog is at the centre now, with bloglines, Furl, Gmail, del.icio.us and Flickr etc all integrated and running reasonably smoothly together – nomatter where I am.
- Audioscrobbler and LastFM
My own personal radio station which (mostly) only plays the music I like – this is wonderful.
