DIY Cat5 Speaker Cables are supposedly much better than high end speaker cables. Only problem is that they rip hands as you try to make them.

Cat5 cables are the best thing for everything.

I am waiting for the Network Cable Car to come out.

Geobloggers

Early use of Google maps to tie web elements to the real world.

Are these photos improved by knowing where they were taken?

I can see some uses for this.

Archaeological sites and their associated site photos is my first thought.

But a photo of someone's ugly kid in front of a tree does not improve with geotagging so that you know where the tree is.

The place to get all of your Air America Podcasts.

I will get a list of the podcasts I subscribe to up here soon. But right now I am subscribing to a load of crap shows and I need to trim it down before I post it here.

One crap show I have on my iPod is the Richard Vobes Show. I tried to listen to it a couple days ago and it made me ill.

So, Google Local UK and Google Maps UK are released.

Now to see what people do with this. Real estate, renting, cab availability etc.

All we need are the Satellite photos to start Google sightseeing UK (here are three to start, Edinburgh Castle, All of the Premiership grounds and Stonehenge).

So what happens when you combine craiglist and google maps?

This!

When is someone going to do this for Prostitutes?

But seriously, I am looking forward to Google Maps coming to the UK. This integration with other web services is not going to stop.

The talk at ScotLUG went well. I did a short slide show on Social Engineering and then did a live demonstration.

Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

A Coder in Courierland

A true tale of guy who gave up the cubicle for the world of the bicycle messenger.

I would love to do this.
