I'm going to write a little more about this in the morning, but David Cameron's blog has yet to get the whole RSS thing. 2006-10-02T00:51:59ZUntitled entry permalink

Nick Cohen: "Europeans enjoy their fantasy of the American dystopia too much to notice what is in front of their noses. The Republicans used religious passions to push largely working-class American Christians to vote for Bush, then gave them next to nothing when he was in the White House. Perhaps one day their brains, honed by millions years of evolution, will work out that they have been taken for fools." 2006-10-02T00:09:33ZUntitled entry permalink

Danish prime minister, Anders Rasmussen: "My conclusion is that freedom of speech is the most valuable right of liberty. We must defend it to the very last. Across the world, there is respect that we didn't give in to the pressure of fanatical Muslim groups. In many places, the story has put Denmark on the map and, except for a few countries, we have seen almost exclusively positive reactions." A hearty fuck yeah or - is it - knep ja! If only Britain had a PM who used the word 'liberty' like he meant it. 2006-10-01T23:55:59ZUntitled entry permalink

I've just been discussing the Wii with a friend. Apparently, they are putting wi-fi only on to the Wii. There are some pretty pictures that got leaked (via digg). This is actually extremely sensible. Wifi is about the best way to connect devices to a TV. I mean, how exactly am I supposed to wire up my living room? What a pain. To not put wifi in a next-gen console would be the height of utter insanity. 2006-10-01T19:20:19ZUntitled entry permalink

If you want to see PodShow's funding announcement, here it is. The bits which Podshow has which are good: the music network, the Sirius linkup. The bits which are thoroughtly "meh": the BT partnership and the website. I will be building Podshow compatibility in to the site I'm working on though. 2006-10-01T09:41:21ZUntitled entry permalink

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
