Back Up; Don’t Smash Up – Mozy asks how much your home computer is worth
via youtube.com
Interesting thought behind this PR stunt.
Is your computer backed up to the point you’d smash it without notice to get a new laptop?

Networked Non-Profits arrive
Got into work this morning to find the books written by our friend Beth Kanter that @fang and I ordered had arrived.
Here’s me with them on my desk along with a Adelaide view out the window.

Random Train pic
Was thinking I could take a pic each train ride to/from work. However I suspect it’d get very boring very fast.
Waiting scenes
Another appointment another waiting room another attempt to take a semi-decent photo with my old wm5 PDA camera.

apana-award.jpg
Going through some old papers turned up this ‘pseudo-award’ the APANA (SA) people gave me back in 1994 when I was hosting their server at work feeding APANA with newsgroups from Adelaide uni via SLIP. Was probably Leigh Hart, Mark Newton, Adrian Corston or John Lindsay inspired. Heady days.

Scenes while waiting – pickup
Picking up the boy. Can’t see much I know, but sometimes waiting is like that.

Scenes while waiting – homemade style lemonade
I sometimes do a lot of waiting – so pass time playing with my phone. Think I’ll start a scenes while waiting meme on my blog.
This time I’m waiting for a script to be filled by the chemist. Ok I know this picture isn’t of the chemist, but it’s where I’m sitting, opposite The General Trader in TTP.

Kids, Guns and Landmines
Very effective display at Adelaide Railway Station entrance by Red Cross [from recollection] against land mines and exploitation of children as weapons and casualties of war.
Outside the door was a hop-skotch game drawn on the ground in chalk, with a pattern that would’ve gone 1,2,3/4,5,BANG and landmine stickers.
Excellent way of highlighting an important cause.
