  1. @ssasqueen heard that KPMG now will work with small business (750k). Interesting; targetting the low end is very different than big deals
  2. Impressed by the engineering behind the dental crown I've just had wedged in my head. The imprints will freak out my toddler ...
  3. RT @tetley_teafolk: ☀ Tea-riffic! #freeteafriday A year's supply of Tetley to one person who follows us and RTs this message by 5pm today
  4. @bigdaddywhale nice poster. I say 'ship it'.
  5. @phillColeman "But 10 gallons of bottled sunshine is always welcome" what a fantastic urn of phrase!
  6. RT @phillColeman: Every round of five pints you buy, two are for the Chancellor.... ouch. is.gd/U0Sy1C // Homebrewers unite ..
  7. @phillColeman I very nearly had to rip to bmps and edit in paint!
  8. @teich screen sharing: have you tried ours (Yuuguu) is.gd/t1viWW? If so , what went wrong?
  9. fingers crossed, finally looks like if I transcode 1080/50p AVCHD to 720/25p WMV then I can actually edit the wretched stuff ...
  10. @JustinWise did an interview with the local FM radio station, they used a Samson C01 USB mic to record each voice #podcast
  11. that synth even has a working four track recorder. Oh my word. Do you know how much I PAID for that stuff in 1986 - now it's just a web toy!
  12. All kinds of awesome: go play with the working synth on google.com fab!
  13. @phil_creighton true! Must say, wouldn't dream of it with my two kids now, belts just second nature. For the better!
  14. @phil_creighton no seatbelt sounds mad today; but I regularly larked in the back of a Cortina Estate's boot in the good ole 70s ...
  15. seems weird to charge Rebekah Brooks but not Murdoch(s)
  16. Good summary of facebook, foursquare, stalking and why it's big business to sell everything known about you online is.gd/hL55KT
  17. @bigdaddywhale six guitarists? Need ... or just happen to have ;) Can soon tell. Watch to see if they play different things or not ...
  18. @tomaszkubacki might be tricky; Ubuntu 12 has also broken screen sharing for us (yuuguu) will need to code workround :( #ubuntu #fail
  19. @ClareHooper indeed! Nice to see your other half last night, send him a 'nice one' from me ;)
