@willgater I have a Pentax digital SLR with up to 30s exposure, a Meade ETX90, a very small tripod and my MacBook. And really dark skies! 07:09 PM July 25, 2008 from twitterrific in reply to willgater
I have no astrophotography skills! Anyone got any hints or websites a beginner with a digital SLR should try out? 06:10 PM July 25, 2008 from Netvibes
My attempt to see all the planets in one night is postponed to another evening. Am going to try and hone my astrophotography skills first... 06:09 PM July 25, 2008 from Netvibes
Tonight, if the weather is clear, I shall try to observe all 8 planets and Pluto. They are all visible from southern Europe. Is Ceres up? 04:31 PM July 24, 2008 from twitterrific
Have been accepted for publication in the Monthly Notice of the Royal Astronomical Society. And it's only taken 20 months to do it. Yippee! 03:08 PM July 23, 2008 from Netvibes
Anyone know a tool which will tell you the script which is generating a core dump file? They are filling up my hosting space! 07:55 AM July 19, 2008 from Netvibes

Yep CenceMe just creeped me out too much. I uninstalled. I have become suspicious of new technologies! Does this mean I'm now old? 07:41 AM July 15, 2008 from Netvibes
CenceMe might be creepiest iPhone app yet. Leaving it installed for a few days to see how it goes. Facebook knows too much already! 11:11 PM July 14, 2008 from twitterrific
@whatevermort The Last.fm app for the iPhone is cool but will be cooler on my 3G if it ever arrives 07:37 PM July 14, 2008 from twitterrific in reply to whatevermort

@whatevermort Does Russell T's honorary fellowship make your whole academic life up till now feel slightly less worthwhile? No pressure. 09:44 AM July 14, 2008 from Netvibes in reply to whatevermort
@whatevermort I realise its not really going to be on your mind today, but how's the 3G in the city? 09:44 AM July 14, 2008 from Netvibes in reply to whatevermort
Love the iPhones scientific calculator 11:38 AM July 12, 2008 from twitterrific
