what sort of communication organisation

spiders back from vacation. food all wrapped.

bbc had whats on listings that caused upset in industry as it threatened some trade competitive opportunities.

whatson b4 n'auspicious date whatson afta

so how then did bbc do better job linking outside pages than its internal infernal duplicate or intermediary or partial links. see programmes now/next. what advantage could there be with an effective 'programmes now/next' view?

its henry v+iii. chasing departing transport services. never mind, catch next one! OR, on demand.

a bit surprising how much the shows condense to. they almost dissappear up their own usb-mic connector. podcast = edited recording. so they can just say any rubbish crap because morons will listen and anybody else will just take summarise.

smiley does transport chaos

extensive research on the bambara rail system has shown smiley floor decals greatly increase concourse flow. an investment return of 3x more than other measures. less developed systems use other images but still show improvements compared to blankness.

pimp some ware. hip 2 da max

set up pc on by mouse click ... base unit is awkward under desk. doesn't get accidentally triggered like keyboard. saving 4 seconds every power-on.

installed, and set-up, the mouse gesture extension application, easygestures


... bit like steering wheel, and offers similar exercise! may get some more buttons to make even more of this.


having no success with storing playlist (out-of-box), one click to next programme source, on vlc all-format player, but discovered it can open multiple feeds simultaneously, eg in any language combination speech + public service scanner + ambient/experimental + other music!!!! you can bleep craps out for life for you anyway. (this all gets set on its own workplace panel).

good stuff, well done, thanks for any tips, folks

Police officer: batteries included?

look out for debate on 'how many police officers does it take to change a lightbulb?', and, 'when does police administration get done?' A reduction in arrest forms is pending.







along lines of;

"How many managers does it take to change a light bulb?


1) A roomful - they have to hold a meeting to discuss all the ramifications of the change.
2) None, they like to keep employees in the dark.
3) "This topic was resumed from last week's discussion, but is incomplete pending resolution of some action items. It will be continued next week. Meanwhile ..."
4) "We've formed a task-force to study the problem of why light bulbs burn out, and to figure out what, exactly, we as supervisors can do to make the bulbs work smarter, not harder."

How was it managed with instant processing and booths?

Back to roots. Internet style "social lending may threaten banks", eventually.

Internet style social networking lending narrows gap between traditional banks and cooperative finance.

"Internet social lending 'may threaten banks' | Internet Marketing News and Blog | E-consultancy.com: "

A new study has claimed that the social networking boom could eventually threaten the dominance of traditional lenders.

A study by the Social Futures Observatory think-tank found that many consumers would consider borrowing through online ‘social lending’ communities rather than high street banks and other traditional lenders.

The SFO study surveyed members of Zopa.com, an online lending community, as well as a general sample of mainstream banking customers."

Katie Ledger on the programme, Click, reports that, "Social lending gains net interest - Social networking spawns a new concept as banking harnesses the potential of Web 2.0."

silicon.com suggests "big-bank confidence dented by social banking".

Could even partial en masse "borrowers voting with mice" "force banks to cut loan rates"? Indeed could it eventually comprehensively metamorphose lending and saving processes?

Or maybe it will overtake porn?

(some porn stats:
  • # 89% of porn is created in the U.S.
  • # $2.84 billion in revenue was generated from U.S. porn sites in 2006
  • # $89/second is spent on porn
  • # 72% of porn viewers are men
  • # 260 new porn sites go online daily)

views of election night TV coverage

What words from the mingometers? JezV doing suffrage jives or was it euro-spasms exercises not only himself but this writer and some others. No Snow-Vine tango or



Hip Sarkozy however!


PooterGeek writes

"They’re On A Mission To Explain And They’re Bringing The Pain

Am I hallucinating? Are any of you lot seeing this too? Right now Jeremy Vine is wearing a Harry Hill shirt and dancing to hip-hop next to a holographic Menzies Campbell. The caption behind him reads “MING’S BLING”. Has BBC Election Special turned into The Day Today?

UPDATE: Iain Duncan Smith has just said of the poorest voters he’s been talking to: “Real real problems of drug and alcohol abuse—and I’m in all that right now.”

It’s excruciating, but not for the reasons I was afraid of at the start of the evening.

Asher Says "Ming's Bling" reminds me of Miri Ben-Ari".



johninnit Says ".. just been watching him play a virtual game of tennis with a giant stock footage Tony Blair ... News24 is starting to totally surpass The Day Today, both in terms of over-excited news-reading and in ridiculous CGI. Chris Morris' genius IRA anti-bomb-dog spray graphic looks positively mundane these days."

dmatr Says ".. gobsmacked too. And the tennis thing…! Chartjunk on crack. The BBC election team urgently needs to read Edward Tufte - it may already be too late.""

and from BBC site webpages itself, the post "It's been called "Super" Thursday", these comments;

Mistress76uk wrote ".. particularly loved the tennis graphic which Lord Falconer didn't seem to understand. Jeremy suggested remedial classes. Fantastic!!!!!! :-)"

Lesley Boatwright wrote "Why does the presence of graphics and the need to present them to the public often seem to entail the presenters doing a sort of song-and-dance act? I was completely bemused by Jeremy Vine's antics - repeated on BBC1's election coverage later - did he get the script from the Ministry of Funny Walks?"

csharp wrote ".. who uploaded the show? the watch again show compression ratio would make a 1970s hong kong kung fu film look well sync'd."

I managed the whole overnight tv and radio coverage, and then some. A sign of something. Ate some guarana, BBE 2005 bought during urge for south american disposition, at midnight-30 and breezed it.

I'll make reference to some films, also;

"Swingers Symbols are recognized as the unique identity for SWINGERS around the world. ( Please select a country )

niche market if you can find it. can you pass! a step before tattoos?

which might come in use at the monthly Starkers, "the nightclub with a difference ... Everybosy is naked. It is the biggest and best fully naked DISCO in the world."
