Things I’m Loving Right Now!

This isn’t your standard link dump… I’m gonna talk about things both online and offline that I’m loving…

  • GodCast.org — Creative Commons licenced podcasts with christian content, especially The Living Word and Rev Tim’s Podcast
  • Flickr — Finding cool photos that get your creative juices flowing has never been so easy, and never so fun!
  • Picasa — Makes performing simple photo improvements fast and easy… if only it would integrate with Flickr…
  • Walking around Wellington — especially to places I’ve never walked, such as the Interisland Ferry Terminal. I’m doing the 10,000 step program, so reaching 10,000 steps before I go to bed is a real motivator… and taking the new camera makes it fun too 🙂 … walking to the ferry terminal that day got me up above 20,000 steps for the first time!
  • Getting Things Done — or more specifically the methodology outlined in the book Getting Things Done (slashdot review)… being organised and completing tasks is a motivator!

Yay! Filing Cabinet!

Yay! My filing cabinet arrived today! It’s a Precision Classic 2-drawer in Kashmir Blue, with lock. It’s part of my whole Getting Things Done regime that I hope to kick off when I get a free day to just get onto sorting all my loose crap sitting in my new In-tray 🙂

You gotta focus on the positive sides of things. My Podcast on Webfroot is going really well. You should tune in, listen to it, and send me your feedback! If you send in a recording of your comments on the show, I’ll play it on the next episode! If you’ve got content and/or music that you think I should play, send that in to me too! Come party together on the show 😀 It’s all about having fun!

Oh, and don’t forget the Wellington Firefox Party!

Mr Scruff Returns!

I was in Cybernomad tonight saying Hi to my good friend Benji. He was talking to customers, so I’m browsing the many handouts they have on the desk. I pick up the October schedule for Sandwiches and lo, Mr Scruff is coming to Wellington sometime during November! w00t W0000T!

The end has passed…

After listening to The End is Near and then The End is Here I was left with a sense of sadness yet contentness — it’s not every day your favorite band breaks up. The End is Here was so awesome — it captured the band’s sadness and excitement to them breaking up, and the last song Every New Day finished and the fans chanted “Thank You Thank You” and it was very moving — I so wish I was there, but listening to the CD made me feel like I was actually there! *sobs* *smiles*

The end is here, oh wait…

So I’m like hacking away, and Mark (aka Kodiak), one of the webfrooters and fellow geek.flatters comes home and asks me “Do you have that live album by Five Iron Frenzy?” and I say “I got their first one, but not the one from their final show” and he like pulls a paper bag from nowhere and I say “…But you do…… I’m jealous…” and he talks about how he saw it at Manna (christian bookstore) and was surprised to see it there, and didn’t think that I had it, and so bought it with the intention of selling it to me if he didn’t like it, or selling it to me if I wanted it. So I’m gonna buy it off him 🙂 The End Is Near is FIF’s last studio album, and The End is Here is the live recording of their final show. This completes my collection of CDs by my most favorite band of all time. Thanks Mark, you r0x0r!
