  1. #Shocker news today: Living increases your chance of dying onforb.es/Lzf8tq Damn, thanks for that Forbes
  2. @sushobhan It's done
  3. @knebworthchap Glad I could help, enjoy the holiday!
  4. @sushobhan I'll do that - haven't watched the last two yet. Well that's my evening sorted then - if I've finished my deck by then
  5. @knebworthchap Oh if you haven't read Cryptonomicon or Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, they're awesome. I'll stop there ;)
  6. @knebworthchap Really fun holiday reading, brilliant scam / thief / heist / fantasy: The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch
  7. @knebworthchap Perdido Street Station (if you like thriller + weird fantasy setting) or The City & The City, both China Mieville
  8. @sushobhan I'd love to, would be great - particularly as I'm spending a lot of time working alone in a room right now - drop you an email
  9. The Avenue Q soundtrack always puts me in a great mood :D
  10. @knebworthchap What kind of stuff do you enjoy reading on your holidays?
  11. @sushobhan No immediate plans to come to visit for now, going to HK in July, then most probably the Philippines for a while
  12. @sushobhan Congratulations!! *cough*
  13. @Robertc1970 What is a robot ball meant to do? And actually what kind of ball are we talking about here? ;)
  14. Impressive on video a least! RT @Robertc1970: Genius or junk? Guess I'll find out in December when it ships: bit.ly/Kw80NL
  15. Fantastic! RT @faris: Awesm @marcprecipice: Had to take a camera phone picture of this. bit.ly/KlXDAI
  16. @Robertc1970 Although you can have all of those together now, which you couldn't in 1981. Not sure it's exactly better, but...
  17. @sweena As long as you keep a pretty broad definition of the word wonder :D
  18. @constant_garden You're welcome!
  19. @whats_the_plan Cheers, nice to see my blog post in there ;)
  20. @Whatleydude Or just get used to the sunlight, it's good for you ;)
