YOUR COMMENTS ARE WELCOME BUT PATIENCE REQUSTED

I've received many welcome comments about this site. The problem is that I have spent little time maintaining it. I hope to be able to do so over the next few days and put Dad's Anzac day pictures up in the Photo Library. Until then the layout colours and content is very out of sync. Patience my friends. Paid work comes first. Hello to Lori and Shelagh in Minnesota, to Jen in Massachusetts, Lizzy in Brizzy, and Phil in the next suburb. Sorry Phil.

PAPERLESS OFFICE ? or PAPER DISK

ZDNet posted a story today about the new DVD format Blu-Ray which is being developed by Sony. It features a disk made of Paper. Had this appeared on April 1st I would have understood it more than what I can right now. Paper ! Paper ? How can you use something electronic to etch bits of information into paper. C'Mon Sony .... more information please ... we're intrigued, amazed and eager to get our hands on one. Let us know. Mail your thoughts.

SCREEN WORK

Have been doing lots of screen design work today. There is more to come. To visit the Xerox Supplies website, just click on the image.

ANOTHER GREAT DAY

Today is another of those beautiful days where there no wind and just the right amount of warmth. It reminds me already of the weekend we had in Port Macquarie ... ahh how I wish to be back at the beach and getting into it. I could be far more productive there .... what ? Well I mean I can think and produce more work when there is less stress, noise and distraction. I'm seeing it now by working a day a week from home. I'm lucky my job lends itself to that kind of work. Heres a picture from the street in Beacon Hill today. Oh ... and yes I am doing work ... just taking a 5 minute OH&S break okay. :-)

Still Awake

Yep ... I'm still awake and it's 00:20 now. I want to complete some stuff for work but I think I'll have to go in late tomorrow after having worked most of the evening for them.

2004-04-13 TAKING IT TO THE WORLD

Todays the day. Finally I've bitten the bullet and decided that I should share this page more with the world. So what ! Well lets see what will be in here.
I'll be talking about travel, and technology, digital photography, radio communications, aircraft watching, playing flight simulator, my world, my dreams and thoughts about anything I care to imagine, ... but most of all me .... just me.

2004-04-07 RE-DESIGN PROJECT SCREENS

The screen design is pretty much finished. There will be a few ends to tie off but the majority of it is done. The next task for me is to concerntrate on analysing data from the logs to identify the best metadata for each product and category.

2004-04-07 LIBERAL AND PROUD OF IT

Of all the events happening recently the biggest blatant act of thievery occurred yesterday when the state government decided that enough was not quite enough and decided to raise indirect taxes yet again. So much for the social justice and fair go for the little Aussie battler that they pride themselves so much on.

Hey, did I just post my first political message to the web ! Oh my "significant heavenly person" ! (just to be politically correct here). It didn't hurt maybe I'll post more messages with a political tone in future.
