iTunes, iPods, smart playlists and finding new music

The way that we use iTunes and iPods (or other MP3 players, as I’m told such things exist) has totally changed the way we listen to music. I would consider myself a ‘power user’ where playlists are concerned and try to rate all my songs and am very careful with genres, groupings etc. I really [...]

Going to the Printing Press

The book heads for the printing press the end of next week. Yeehaw!
Update: the book is now available for pre-order on Amazon UK and Amazon.com (thanks for pointing that out, Craig).
In the meantime, here’s what the book might look like if you just happened to have the world’s shiniest table to stand it up on:

Why might you use this? Well, the inspiration came from a page of interest rates from banking and savings products. Customers have often complained that [...]

Post SXSW round-up

Like a lot of people, I felt like I should do a post-SXSW round-up, but guess what? I already did it! No ‘post’ here – it was all done at the time (which was good from the point of view of immediacy, but was a pain to keep on top of at the time, I [...]

One of the (Many) Reasons I Have Been Quiet, part 3

Ever the apologist, here I am again justifying lack of activity on this site (and some others) over the last year or two (the list of other time-suckers can be found here). What’s the justification this time? Well, it’s a good one.
While travelling around the globe a couple of years ago, I started doing some [...]
