It occurred to me today that I regularly read about fifteen blogs. And that regularly I find interesting posts on other blogs that I’m pointed at (normally if someone’s made an interesting comment on my site or on a site I read). But I probably don’t go back to them often enough.
Some — like Escape [...]

I thought it’d been a while since I told you lot what I’d been up to, and so it’s about time I gave you the rundown.
Well, as it’s the week before Christmas, we’ve obviously been doing a lot of preparing in ThePickards household for Santa Claus coming. We’ve had our tree up for a couple [...]

Paul Ince has said there is “absolutely no chance” of him working under new England manager Fabio Capello.Daily Express
Sorry Paul — I didn’t think anyone had actually asked you…

I discovered in the last week — via word of mouth and then via the BBC that my favourite author Terry Pratchett is suffering from a rare form of early Alzheimer’s diseases (or aald timer’s disease, as we would have it here in the North).
He explains (in the letter “an embuggerance” in which he makes [...]

I mentioned before that the COI had produced a consultation document called “Delivering Inclusive Websites” which I, on behalf of the the PSWMG responded to.
I spoke to the document’s author over the phone and I felt that we had a very constructive discussion, highlighting our areas of concern that related to the document and looking [...]

Opera, the people behind the Opera browser (which as it’s only used by about 1% of the population, you might not have heard of unless you work in IT) have filed an anti-trust complaint against Microsoft, arguing that Microsoft is abusing it’s dominant position as the supplier of the industry’s most widely used operating system [...]
