I love my iPod - it goes with me EVERYWHERE. I have it on a lanyard and it sits around my kneck from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed (only coming off when I’m in the shower).
It’s not always in my ear - I take it out when I’m talking to somebody, watching TV, listening to the radio or writing - but do still use it when reading a book or blog post.
But I’m getting really pissed off...

My blog seems to have been turned into an iPlayer love in lately - or at the very least a BBC screenshot fest. Well I might as well keep it up for a little bit longer.
Yesterday I brought you a screenshot of the iPlayer Radio - the integration of iPlayer with the old BBC Radio Player. Today, the first screenshot I have for you is the Radio button on the iPlayer website itself.
If you look...

Two types of Christmas →
Earlier today I was listening to the BBC Radio 5 live phone-in podcast and they were talking about nativity plays. Basically some MP has been calling for ALL schools to do nativity plays based on the original Jesus story.
His argument was that Christmas is a Christian tradition and as such, regardless of whether you believe in the Christian god or not - your children should perform it at school.

Well the switched has happened - if you use the BBC Listen Again Radio Player today - you’ll find it has become iPlayer radio - although it’s pretty much just cosmetic.
The iPlayer Radio looks a LOT better than the BBC iPlayer itself. They have a similar colour scheme but the iPlayer Radio just seems to feel better.
I’m sure that’s all going to change when the iPlayer Radio is incorporated...

I went with my wife for the first ultrasound scan of our third baby a while ago and it was as magical of an experience this time as it has been the previous two.
Actually seeing the little baby mooning me and sticking its fingers up its nose really brings home just how amazing the whole pregnancy and birth process is.
But, I wanted to take a few photos in the room for prosperity and maybe take a...

During my morning trawell of the newspaper websites the other day I came across a piece on the Times site about Australian saying goodbye to the Queen - but as with most newspaper stories, the interesting stuff was in the comments.
You see, journalists have a fairly limited space (often restricted by number of words or time) to put a story together - so they pick key points and hope they’ve got...

Was just searching for iPlayer Streaming on Google and found a post by ninthspace on why they don’t think the iPlayer is a very good idea - mainly focusing on the fact that shows can be recorded with Sky+ and the like without the risk of download timeouts, without the need for a PC and implied - without the need for DRM.
Well I’ll explain the DRM thing in a minute, and why Sky+ isn’t legally any...
The Cult of 2 →
BBC TWO has long been known as the home of more alternative programming - it often either creates cult classics or airs shows that are already cult classics - it is basically the home of interesting programming, the opposite of the more mainstream BBC One.
The problem with One is that it has to be all things to all people - the new 8pm, 90 second bulletin can’t have music or scrolling text...

Well now that everyone else has started talking about it, and you can see it yourself at certain times on a Monday - I figured I’d post a little more of the BBC Homepage and how some of the customisation will look (from someone that hasn’t worked on the page and isn’t on the team that did).
The best way to talk about something is to show it working - so I’ve put a few screen grabs together that...
Prophet and loss →
I bought a teddy today for £5, named him Mohammed then sold him on for £10.
Question is, have I made a prophet?
Also - I’ve just brought my daughter two new teddy bears - ones called Mohammed and the other is called Jesus - just to teach her they’re just normal names and religion is a pile of nonsense fairy tales designed to control the mind.
Sorry - sure you’ve all already heard that.
