Decided to set up a twitter account today and also installed a url shortening service so I don’t have to use a 3^rd party service.

Will see how it goes.

POST REMOVED BY LE CRAIC

Previously on le craic….

Back in April I mentioned an application you can put on your mobile phone that reads special barcodes. Apparantly they are all the rage in Japan.

People are putting them on headstones, t-shirts and in Italy a newspaper is using them too.

Don’t know if it will catch on here, but I think it could be put to good use but only if a barcode reader is installed on phones here as standard.

Well, not quite - but you can be part of a world record attempt while sitting in your underpants and there aren’t many records you could break doing that. Unless you want to go for the world record attempt for longest time sitting in a bath of baked beans or something but that could get rather uncomfortable.

2,218 Irish so far… 700,000 worldwide. It’s the Firefox 3 download day - geeky but good.

You might already have read the post on Damien Mulley’s blog about the monthly blog award he has set up. It’s a good idea, so I’ve decided to add a widgety thing to the sidebar of this blog to promote the idea of the award. It was created using sproutbuilder and the code can be copied and used on your own blog if you so wish so that readers to your blog know there is an award out there - as not everyone is going to be aware of this.

I’ve also embedded the widget into this post as well. Just click on the share link on the widget and copy the code and you’re done!
