While I’m working through ideas and pushing my carbon footprint through the roof by flying constantly for the next couple of months I thought I’d share...
I’m off to Bristol in a couple of days for a photography course.

How do you get over blog burnout? I’ve not felt the desire to write to either of my blogs, twitter, Jaiku or my Tumblog since Friday!

On the side & paid to blog? →
New banners, buttons, boxes and includes pop up on blogs all the time - from the brilliant My Blog Log as a way of turning the blogosphere into a giant social network to support badges for causes like the EFF or Alan Johnston.
On this blog I have a big banner asking people not to print […]

The social problem →
I have a confession to make - I’m addicted to social networks. OK not quite addicted to the networks themselves, well not all of them - but the actual process of signing up for a new network.
I’m registered on most (usually as upyourego) but only regularly login to very few, so, inspired by DoctorVee and […]

Opening the Archive →
The BBC have jumped in both feet first and launched something many have been demanding for years - an online version of their incredible, massive archive.
As well as newsreel, clips and nature shows it will include comedy, drama and music. But for now, like the iPlayer trials it’s just a limited start - open to […]
My wife is taking our three year old to Jersey Zoo today - our membership is nearly up so they’re making the most of it.

In a bit of a hat tip to the latest, VERY good Doctor Who commentary podcast I thought I’d give you a behind the scenes look at where I write this and other blogs.
Here is a photo of my […]
My ‘crash’ Space →
I am getting completely, totally, absolutely and finally sick of My Space - everytime I go to look at a profile, send a comment, see a photo/video or listen to a song the bloody thing crashes and tells me they know there’s a problem.
The interface is ugly and made even more so by people using […]
Justifying Junk →
Two of the top stories on the BBC News site right now are “Too much bacon ‘bad for lungs’” and “Red wine ‘may treat lung disease’” - so if I weren’t a Vegetarian that doesn’t like alcohol I’d be with artesea in having Bacon and Red Wine for Breakfast
However this does strike at […]

Blogging the bloggy blog blog
I’ve just posted a new blog post about blogging about blogs on tumblogs and Twitter while promoting the process for Jaiku and MyBlogLog.
Still there’s nothing like blogging about blogs, bloggers and blogging on a blog, tumblog, twitter or Jaiku to cleanse the soul.

A couple of months, when I first launched How to be a Geek (My Tumblog) the first post was titled It’s a meta world and was basically a couple of lines of text and a link to a blog post on the launching of the tubmlog.
For some reason the second paragraph of that post seems […]
“The Official Secrets Act is not to protect secrets, it is to...”
– Yes, Prime Minister (Jobs for the Boys)
“The Prime Minister doesn’t want the truth, he wants something ...”
– Yes, Prime Minister (Writing on the Wall)
Technorati
Normally How To Be a Geek is little more than a place for my collected ramblings - but in a break from normal service, and to let me claim this blog on Technorati I’m going to write a one off post.
