winter sky
showing me stars
blue cold snow
deep night glow
sharing the air
seeing the twinkles
x x x is sleeping
or is she up tweeting
she’s resting in bed
dreaming what she said
i’m still awake
and keeping you safe
connected at least
across barriers unseen
from now until dawn
we share the same sky
and all through the day

Dawning of the age of microexpressionism
Think about it. What could the next decade of computing bring? It really isn’t difficult to imagine.
If laziness is the mother of invention, which it often is, then taking my phone out of my pocket every time I want to check Twitter is far too clumsy. I want it projected in front of my eye, with some kind of discreet control pad on my arm or voice control… is that too much to ask? Well no, it isn’t. The technology is already here and by the 2010s it’ll be cheap.
Will people walk around with a strange screen projecting to their eye? If it is discreet, yes.
Don’t use an eye-screen and drive.

[Astronomy Picture Of the Day 29th September 2009]
Incredible new and beautiful image.
Astonishing level of detail and great composition.
i am blind, but i can see.
you are light when it is dark
you are the 1 when everything is zeros
i am deaf but hear your voice.
i sensed a word, i heard a bird, tweeting in the trees.
colourful mute artist, paint me a sky.
fly away and be free
blue warmed into rouge,
the core lit up the shell,
radiating arms reaching over
catched and magnetized and stuck and unprizable
warm are the exchanges that last through the ages.
a face appears, frightened and daring
rocking a smile, so edgy but caring
soothes and makes instant good is this contagious smile, i want to last all while.

Grimey Dubstep Filth from Modosomo.
Never heard dubstep before? Why not try something new and experience this dancefloor sound that is big in the underground. You see people moving, bobbing, tapping and going crazy to this kind of sound in clubs. It’s a dark, grimey and often amusing sound. ¦D
The new camera inside Hubble has captured these images in more depth and clarity than ever before. The benefits of the upgrade are clear.

That is ‘9′ shown 9 times 9 times 4. 9x 9 to the power of 4.
I wanted to do the power of 9 (9×9*9) but that may well have broken the Internets.

So here I am (@jigglemequick) writing about how great my life is now that @pReHaB212 is in it. Thanks for the suggestion!
Please take a moment to see why I follow her. I am not kidding I will attempt to describe how she is making it ‘great’!
I find her tweets insightful and they often stand out from the wave. Each oozes with reality, life, buzz, wisdumb, jackacidity, sexiness, hope, joy and often brings a smile to my face.
Anything that makes me smile qualifies for being ‘great’.
A few examples:
“finally home. feels great!! everyone get naked!! haha. not really”
“twitter makes me think of when i was eleven all amped on chat rooms. except for now when i talk to 40 yr. old men, it’s by choice. lol”
“where’s all the ladies? i’m twitter-surrounded by a bunch of dudes. i feel outnumbered and a little excited.”
“you ever look up from twitter to the t.v. & realize there is hard core porn that has apparently been on for an hour? no? oh, me neither.”
“@jigglemequick this is gonna be the best hand holding, skipping, rubbing, lap dance ever. lol”
At first I thought OMG what am I doing writing this, but now I encourage this dedicated writing about fellow tweeters. Tweet, I mean, write about your acquaintances, or tweet. Show your love :]
“i’m trembling” – Incremental9
“Google Wave is gonna take ‘em to the cleaners!” – @jigglemequick
“Revolutionary once again. What a game changer” – maxbeatty
My definition of Web 3.0 seems to be: Live interaction wherever possible.
Google Wave offers: Live editing, tweeting, emailing, instant messaging, collaborating, search, live auto translation – (speaks 40 languages), auto spell checker – all seamlessly part of one system.
It’s an open system which anyone can develop upon. Encouraging innovation as always.
After watching the Google Wave Developer Preview it is easy imagine the new possibilities of communication that have opened up here. Google Wave satisfies that demand to make communication on the web more integrated and useful. They appear to have done a really good job of it!
The video has many good applauses and ‘wow’ moments!
Quite amazing to watch.
Thanks for sharing.
Why am I writing this?
A few years ago I watched a video about how consciousness and calendars are linked. The idea that Ian Xel Lungold talks about changed the way I think.
His interpretation of the ancient Mayan Calendar suggested that since the universe began, consciousness has been evolving. As time goes on in a linear way, more things are learnt by more people and the best and strongest that survived are shared and passed on. In the video, the Mayan calendar is used by Ian Xel Lungold used to demonstrate this accelerating of evolution of consciousness by matching it up to historical events stretching back to the start of the universe.
The calendar apparently counts up to the day that December 21, 2012 lands on which marks the end of this ‘cycle’ in the Mayan calendar.
There are a lot of misguided beliefs about 2012 and the Mayan Calendar relating to ‘the end of the world’. Just do a search and you’ll see what I mean.
I predict that on December 21st 2012, it will only be the end of religious beliefs for those that religiously believed it would be ‘the end of the world’ !
This day should be a great cause for great celebration (I for one will be partying late into the next day 
.
There will be big parties. There will be a huge worldwide media scare and coverage about the whole thing.
The 21st of December 2012 will be remembered for making a lot of people look silly, but also and more importantly for what everyone just learnt.
The doomsday trippers and misguided believers will experience the ULTIMATE lesson in the evolution of human consciousness.
Belief that the world could end in 3 years from now is a good thing for some people. It taught me to live each day to the full. With another 3 full years of training, I expect to be really good at making use of time.
Accelerating development of the Internet and computer technology is allowing people to communicate more and benefit in ways previously not thought of.
As more people become more connected: ideas flow better, geophysical barriers become irrelevant, people understand each other better, awareness and empathy of the human condition improves, problems are solved more effectively, natural resources are saved and funny pictures of animals are easy to get hold of.
Even the ‘unconnected’ (people not on the Internet) are getting the benefits without even realising. The improvements that the communication revolution offers to society is benefiting everyone right now and will only get better.
We are on a trajectory of improving betterness. Expect 2012 to be a time of understanding.
Defined in the Urban Dictionary as:
The flabby breasts of a man.
Man + Boob = Moob
I have decided it is about time everyone became more aware of this issue.
This is a reminder to all men out there that moobs are unsightly, unhealthy and I expect a bit of a turn off for women.
Moobs form on men with a lifestyle of excess.
I for one have let myself go a little and I know I am not alone.
Come on men, lets cut back on that sugar/fat/alcohol and eat a little less.
By reducing you man boobs you will live longer, you’ll look sexier and you wont look like a fat bastard as much.
Seriously I’m going to cut down the chocolate, cheesecakes and crisps and do interesting things with fruit and veg instead. It does not mean giving up the things you like, it just means eating less of them. It is easily doable by all.
The solution: Eat less all round to reduce daily calory intake.

John K. Wasilewski is currently experiencing ‘moobs’ and wants rid of them as the summer is here. If you want to get rid of yours, just eat less food every day.
UK government will pay from £2,000 to £5,000 grants as an incentive to car buyers to buy electric.
They are also investing £20 million into plug-in points for charging E.V.s and hybrids. This is considered by many to be far too little. Country-wide power points will cost far more.
All this is hoped to stimulate investment in electric car production.
Perhaps by 2011 we will all be driving a car indirectly powered by either wind, water, solar, fire or atom splitting.
It means a nice reduction of our carbon footprints.

It’s finally here. It’s April the 1st and what a nice surprise to see Google Suggest to be working on the UK version of the search engine.
Using the latest hardware from a distance, gamers will be able to play games from a distance using a small set-top box.
Despite the noticeable control delay from button press to on-screen movement, this will succeed because it will be super cheap.
That and all the benefits of the cloud, such as automatic upgrades, that the clouds have to offer.
Imagine the new games and virtual realities that will appear from this type of system…
We could be looking at a new big bwoy in the gaming market. I didn’t see that one coming!

I’ve always wanted a way to plan a goal quickly and easily. In the past the quickest way to create a brainstorm has been using pen and paper, and it works pretty good.
I wanted a goal planner so much that I even bought the domain treegoal.com in the knowledge that one day I could somehow learn how to program web apps! That didn’t happen, so I was excited to see this website called MindMeister reviewed on BBC’s Click technology program on TV.
This way of planning a goal is now faster than using paper. Any mind maps created are stored online to access from anywhere and can be shared in real time to collaborate with other web users.
Web 2.0 style interface
MindMeister is free to use and to my surprise it works exactly the way I want it. All the features I was planning for my own ‘treegoal’ domain, they’ve done it.
It’s a winner because they have kept it delightfully simple which reminds me of Google’s applications.
MindMeister have done a really good job building this. I’m raving about it because it’s allowed me to brainstorm and plan a complex goal that would not fit on one piece of paper!
If you want high quality sound after uploading to online video sharing sites websites, going for YouTube every time may not be the best way to go. If the audio quality takes priority over anything else, this list should help decide which service to use.
I uploaded the music video ‘Zero G’ to some of the most popular video sharing sites that do not require any special registration. Some sites have restrictions on the types of videos you can upload.
The resulting videos are embedded primarily in order of sound quality. If the audio quality is equal at any stage, they are placed in secondary order by: how intrusive advertisements are, speed of loading and other site features.
I have worked extensively with audio and have been producing music for over 14 years and have to the best of my ability put them in highest sound quality order. I’ve taken into account: high frequency clarity, punchiness, solidity, bass integrity, colouration and compression artefacts. This top ten is simply showing how good the audio codec settings are for each video site.
Sound playback on some of these sites is so good I consider it to be hi-fidelity and near-CD quality.
Rated out of 10.

After watching Prime Minister’s Questions for the umpteenth time I realized something.
I made some videos just now on my mobile but I have a dilemma.
I don’t know whether to share them with the world.
I have shared videos before on sites like Youtube, but never ones with me in the frame (apart from my hands in a how-to video).
Here are things I have come up with after some examination…
If I do share them: What is the worst that could happen? Read the rest of this entry »
Tired of your old sweaty bath mat? Do you love the feel of moss under your bare feet? Well this bathmat is alive!
Made from a variety of earth moss, this bath mat does not smell and looks like a joy to step upon its mossy goodness.
Its designer, Nguyen La Chanh, from Switzerland, says:
“I think this mat would appeal people who miss a corner of nature in their apartment – perhaps if they live in an urban environment, far from parks and nature areas.”
“It’s relaxing, feels lovely and soft under the feet and doesn’t need much care.”
- I’ll take one!
Right now I speak through the body and the mind that I used to be so involved in. I am using this body and this mind right now from a commanding level where all existence is tiny and I dominate the universe. Read the rest of this entry »
Chosen for its simplicity and speed.
