  1. @sil the model here is: after x inches snowfall, a contractor can come and grit the roads: they are out gritting as soon as they can.
  2. @matthewrevell I read yesterday that Liverpool had run out of grit for the roads. It's -18 C in Sweden, and we've had about 2 ft of snow.
  3. I challenge anyone to a YouTube weirdness shoot-out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hY-8ggB6T7I
  4. Mozilla UK community finally gets its own site. Jolly good show, chaps. http://www.mozilla-uk.org/
  5. Torres in the 93rd. 1-0. #YNWA
  6. @mjasay Agree value goes beyond LoC, but it was (Google VP) Rosenberg's assertion that they contribute most code. (and Pagerank isn't open)
  7. RT @mjasay Gartner: "The truth is that closed systems still win. Open systems good for making others lose." http://bit.ly/4F6Lzz -good read
  8. Google claim to be world's largest contributor of open source http://bit.ly/8nbGgd with 20m lines/code. Surely not: OpenOffice alone is 35m
  9. We'll not see the days so short, as my great grandmother used to say.
  10. RT @glynmoody: EU settlement: ECMA 376 not ISO 29500 - http://bit.ly/4HsIrQ OOXML dead in the water? #eu #microsoft #ooxml
  11. RT @jackschofield: Easily the headline of the year: http://bit.ly/8F2GwL
  12. NetApplications pegs Linux usage in Ireland at 11%...way ahead of the rest of Europe. Did everyone else already know this? news to me.
  13. some job! RT @rcweir: "Be a Perception Change Agent" Microsoft job opening for "Linux and Open Office Compete Lead" http://bit.ly/6HIXJo
  14. @brianking WOAH!!!!
  15. Seen Mozilla's causes: http://www.mozilla.org/causes/ ? What's missing? (I think this is a good start)
  16. I have to admire the way Wigan play. I'm no purist, but those are some nice triangles.
  17. RT @Glinner: Half Man Half Biscuit - Paintball's Coming Home http://post.ly/FFhe This make my day.
  18. @nitot Well done all round. And it won't spoil Christmas. Yay indeed!
  19. The Mighty Reds look mightily short of confidence right now. Am behind them more than ever. We'll play worse and win this season. #ynwa
  20. Liverpool good value for 1-0. But neither Gerrard nor Torres look like they've got 90 minutes in them.
