1) What were you doing 10 years ago:
i was living in a crappy one bedroom flat in north fitzroy that smelt like curried fish soup. i was working as an editorial assistant at a technical writing company … i would later be fired from this job because i hated it and it hated me in […]
i’ve been through a bunch of different incarnations of the confessional personal blog. i don’t want to do that anymore.
i’ve tried keeping a graphic art/illustration theme central to this blog but i got bored. and also i realised something, graphic designers are, generally, quite dull people who think thinking outside the box all the time […]
I did a trial run to Werribee last week during peak hour and it was better than I thought it was going to be. From West Footscray to the new house was about 35 minutes.
It’s going to be a bit of a head shift. It takes 10 minutes to get to work at the moment […]

i am also studying again because i am […]
i am on the midnight baby shift tonight and i have finished all my bits and pieces for work so i was wandering aimless around the internet, which is better than wandering aimlessly through the television channels at this time of night.
i found this article about facebook via mark o’s items of interest. this part […]
Yesterday I worked through the 23 things program developed by the PLCMC, created as a self-learning tool for librarians about all things web 2.0 (those social networking tools like wikis, blogs, rss, youtube, technorati etc) . Some of the stuff I already knew, but it’s always good to revisit things and discover you don’t quite […]
