  1. Strange how ultra-res laptops don't sell. My 1yr-old 1920x1200 XPS no longer sold; I ran 1600x1200 in '03, still available only on a few.
  2. Enjoying Istanbul: however overlaid with sleek tramways and 3G connections, it's still ancient Constantinople once you hit the backstreets.
  3. 2 US states turn backs on Obama; 12 months in and he hasn't done anything yet. Barack, stop the big ideas and look for some quick wins.
  4. Definition of customer segmentation: expending vast volumes of effort and energy to decide who you SHOULDN'T be talking to.
  5. If you get Marketing Week Nov 10, look out for a report on my academic research in the Data Strategy section.
  6. Blair's hopes for EU presidency fading. While perhaps the best choice, he would've wrongly strengthened view of EU as a federated state.
  7. I'm in the Birmingham Post newspaper today: http://bit.ly/3lukI2
  8. Enjoying the new morning workouts with my new punchbag; gets the creative wattage cranked up for the day. http://bit.ly/23CFUb
  9. UK officially in longest recession on record: six consecutive quarters of shrinkage.
  10. Too many aches and pains to be just gym-related; must be out of condition or work-related. Need to skydive!
  11. Musing: OK, so Obama's a good guy, but the Nobel Peace Prize when he hasn't actually DONE anything yet? Giving them out on future potential?
  12. Conservative Party Conf: #fail I think. Not enough excitement or big ideas. The election's not yet won. Eight months to go.
  13. Moments to live for: seeing the sudden fear in the eyes of a misbehaving feral thug when he realises you're going to do something about him.
  14. Memo to Conservative Conf: don't get triumphalist, you still need a 100+ seat swing and a lot can happen in eight months.
  15. Mixed signals from Lab Conf. Brown "dead man walking" - a soundbite of savaged-by-dead-sheep proportions - yet Mandy gets standing ovation.
  16. Hoping Iran isn't pushing Israel towards pre-emptives ... remember the BLOCK comes first! Nuke brinkmanship: just Krav with bigger objects.
  17. Excellent article in the Times summing up how we feel about the bossily nitpicking state the UK's become. http://bit.ly/2OsVdJ
  18. Amused at how ten days ago politicians couldn't even discuss spending cuts; this week they're all madly proclaiming how much they'd cut.
  19. in the battle of the sandwich shops, EAT seems to be beating Pret. Queues average 4x longer at two sets of neighbouring branches. #fb
  20. Sudden uptick in first contacts and interested responses. Slump over? My feeling is the recovery will be bactrian, small hump then real one.
