		<description><![CDATA[I purchased a Barnes &#38; Noble Nook on Tuesday evening and so far my user experience of the device and the website has been thoroughly underwhelming to say the least.
Where do I start? Okay, let’s begin with the device itself. It feels cheap and plastic and even though the screen is a smidgeon larger than [...]

For the past five years this website has been hosted with PHPWebHosting.com who have done an amazing job of [...]

 I just got around to installing Windows 7 (an absolutely terrible operating system if you do anything more than email and web browsing) on one of the workstations at the office and I needed to read through a PDF document but didn’t yet have Adobe [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I finally got around to installing Dragon Age: Origins over the weekend. I just kept putting it off because personal projects and a lot of other good games were vying for my meagre discretionary time outside of day-to-day work. I loved the look of the game and found the first few hours of game play [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I was at my local Fry’s Electronics on Wednesday evening and am still surprised by the street level pricing of some components. I know it is not news to most people, and this is probably the “old fart” side of me showing, but 2TB hard drives for less than $180 and Patriot 128GB SSD for [...]

		<description><![CDATA[I just got done reading the Google Interview Questions over at Gizmodo and came to only one conclusion about them, and it is the same problem I have with most “clever” interview questions. Why bother?
So you’re asking clever questions in an interview, what does this tell you about the candidate?
Can they perform under pressure?
Can they [...]

I have lost the lanyard that I wear around my neck to tether me to my SenseCam.
I am having difficulty adapting to a day without it hanging from my neck like some sort of technological military dog tag.
It feels “weird” [...]

And it [...]

		<description><![CDATA[ I have been tinkering around with the software I use for image feature extraction in my large collection of SenseCam images.
Using OpenCV, a SURF algorithm and Python I have been able to create a small command-line application that can accurately determine places I have visited before based on the captured images.
The Python script is [...]
