  1. @wolf_ie Yes, and yes :)
  2. @wolf_ie What an awesome title. Also: pub tomorrow?
  3. @drydenpaul (Ali read that in an article recently)
  4. @drydenpaul I hear that pot plants are better than software engineers at salary negotiation. Pot plants won't tell you their current salary.
  5. @jahendler 1password does me ok, fwiw.
  6. @gingdottwit :) Thanks.
  7. @andysc Blimey :)
  8. @eastgate An excellent question. I have no idea: I haven't used gadgeteer before. Shall let you know.
  9. Checking out .NET Gadgeteer modules (ghielectronics.com/catalog/catego…) in advance of the Designing Wellbeing workshop (di.ncl.ac.uk/designwellbein… ). Cool!
  10. Diving into the XML DOM -- ah, old memories of the Hypertext & Web Technologies module, as taught by @hughdavis et al!
  11. If you wondered how my Lancaster talk went (and why I sometimes say 'community' when I mean 'discipline'): clarehooper.net/blog/2012/05/h…

  17. @suukii Goodness! That's all a bit dramatic -- well done!
  18. After a few days running round the UK (Weds: Kendal, Thurs: Lancaster, Fri: Exeter & Marldon), I'm looking forward to 1.5 days in Paignton!
