I'm in holding the fort mode during my exam times as my parents have gone away to have a memorial for my Grandmother where she lived before. So, as much as it might seem trivial to be enjoying having a rather large house under my command.. I thought I'd share a quick fun list of reasons why it can be good.

Just had our soccor bot demonstration the other day, and I took some pics.

For those of you wondering what kind of cool toys we get to play with.. here are some pictures and a video of the kicker.

My rave reviews appear to have found their way onto the main page of a very well known hosting company. I did used to work for them, but I still beleive in their products and use them a fair bit.

Anyhow, I've attached a screenshot for those that don't beleive me.. [Click to read the full post]

Welcome to 2007!

Its a new year, and I just got back from my New Years party (Jan 3rd). Yes, it was that good.

So what are your resolutions for the new year? I intend to have more fun this year, do some really interesting thing, and try to spend some more quality time with my key friends. I've been so busy with everything in my life I feel like I've neglected some of the most important people in my life.

So Ed, what did you do for new years? [Click to read the full post]

I have a fascination with how people are convinced or persuaded by marketers to buy the most absurb things because of a 'need'. Its fascinating stuff.

If you've ever taken a marketing course in school they tell you how it all works and teach you everything. Its more or less stale and all figured out.

In capturing video clips for my friend Pete's wedding I stumbled across what they said about me at my high school graduation. It wasn't the most wonderful thing at the time, but looking back I am kind of glad they said what they did - it suits me well :) [Click to read the full post]

I'm sitting killing a few minutes here, waiting for someone to show up so I can install something, then go home and back to studying...

So I've been doing a little googling ;) [Click to read the full post]

Today I will reveal the greatest secret that THEY.. the big cheeses in this world forgot to tell you... Actually I won't but I liked sounded like a motivational speaker for a second there ;)

I just had a little revelation going between two lectures this morning that while it seems obvious, I think almost everybody misses it. [Click to read the full post]

So, Its been suggested to me that I rename my blog to: Discreet Geek instead of Discount Geek... [Click to read the full post]

(Or: Whats in a name?)

So, I was on my was to bed and did a quick scan of MSN and I'm really quite amazed at the state people are in. MSN names and our 'online personalities' so to speak have become our windows to the soul. Or at least to what we want people to see... [Click to read the full post]
