Day 104 of 365 (23 Nov 2009) - Down
365create:
I can’t help feeling the way I do sometimes I wish I could be happy more often than not But I know deep down that I think too much And all that information flows through my mind I want to feel much more me inside And I have to occasionally do some soul searching It’s nothing to do with anyone but me And that’s hard for people to always work out I...

Jobless, penniless, loveless and running low on ambition….pretty much sums up my status right about now. Its funny how things can change seemingly overnight and how ill prepared we are as a species to deal with these things when they come around. Sure there are things that can be put in place to counteract and reduce the adverse risk of such events such as fixed term contracts, bonds,...

Observations the game and James is the name as one of my close friends would say! (except my names not rik and the things that rhyme with that aren’t so cool!)
I’m writing this whilst hurtling down the picadilly line on my way to see the jeff koons exhibition at the Serpentine gallery in South Kensington…but anyway, I can’t help but notice the barren solitude that is the...

Bedsheets, websites and jib hunting!
As I’m writing this I’ve just taken a well earned rest from tackling the bedsheet monster (no it’s not a sesame st character). King size duvets have got to be the biggest bitch to change sheets on, I admit I shud’ve done this earlier whilst others were awake to assist, however as a soon to be 23yr old guy I thought tht I had the neccessary life skills to cope with the...

Mister Zinman here has found a way using some sort of natural language algorithm, to visualise the data about you on the internet that paints a picture of your online you! Personally I’m not fully convinced, but then I dont really have a huge online footprint…yet! Check it for yourselves though you may be surprised at what you find!

What's with all the drawings?!

Communications the "two-way" way!
So folks, as I promised in an earlier post, I thought I’d put up a link to my final year thesis for y’all to have a butchers at.
Aside from being in a rather self promoting mood this month I really wanted to put it out there for peeples to comment on, give me feedback and generally get a broader view as to what the masses think. Coincidently the fact that I’m asking this is...

A New Leaf
I’ve been a little lazy of late, not actually posting things and writing much which is any use to anyone, I became uber addicted to twitter and I guess I’ve just been microblogging instead. But anyhooo…. A lots has happened in the last few months since I last posted anything (on my old blog that is!) and so I thought it’d be an idea to bring the world (or whoever may be...

My old blog →
Ok so after much deliberation I’ve decided to come over to Tumblr - alright so I didn’t have that many posts on the old one anyway but that doesn’t matter. With half a dozen new ways to communicate on the net appearing every other day I thought it would be a hell of a lot simpler to find one which is easily updated and easy to manage and hey presto Tumblr is it.
My old blog is...
