Shelley Powers has some smart things to say about the open sourcing of Movable Type. I'm glad that MT is open source - as it's actually a pretty cool platform. It looks like TypePad and LiveJournal have paid off for Six Apart. Good for them. They are actually something of an anomaly - a software company rather than a Valley-funded media company. 2007-06-05T21:09:06ZUntitled entry permalink

Palm have just released a new Bluetooth keyboard for us long-suffering Palm users. I'm using an infra-red keyboard and it works fine for me, but it's good to know that there's a BT one available also. 2007-06-05T21:06:49ZUntitled entry permalink

I wonder whether the accompanying photograph for this Valleywag post is going over the heads of some of our trans-Atlantic friends. I certainly found it funny! Of course, Wikipedia is there to provide context. 2007-06-05T20:34:31ZUntitled entry permalink

NetNewsWire 3.0 has just been released. It supports microformats, has improved performance and has a new look. Nice, but I've just switched to Google Reader because of the Google Gears integration! 2007-06-05T14:50:17ZUntitled entry permalink

It looks like Americans are catching on to unlocked phones. I haven't actually unlocked my phone - I haven't needed to - but I like that I can for probably not more than £15. 2007-06-05T14:23:11ZUntitled entry permalink

Tim Bray has an analysis of O'Reilly's "State of the Computer Book Market". I don't put tremendous value on these, as I've written before, because use of a language or technology does not necessarily correlate with buying a book on the subject. 2007-06-05T12:50:41ZUntitled entry permalink

Wowza, MacZot is selling Jaikoz MP3 tagger for $12.95 today. It looks like a pretty amazing MP3 tagging system - it also hooks in to MusicBrainz and MusicIP's Acoustic ID to identify tracks. 2007-06-05T12:40:29ZUntitled entry permalink

Remember the Milk, the great online to-do list manager, has added support for Google Gears - meaning you can now Get Things Done on (underground) trains and (very overground) planes and other non-Intynetified places. 2007-06-05T12:34:26ZUntitled 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.
