This one made me laugh (i’m getting to be quite a fan of half geek): Social Networking is better than smoking It’s happening here in New Zealand now- the corporate revolt against employees using social networks on employer owned hardware and networks. The calls of ‘productivity’ cry from the huge offices.Just the other day I…
I did an interview with Andrew Collins for voiceanddata.com.au a while ago. Just found it today. I really need to set that Yahoo pipes thing up properly for my name – Google Alerts sucks.

Don’t want to have to keep checking mail or the actual Facebook site to see what shenanigans that mob are up to? Get the Facebook toolbar for Firefox! At a…
