I can’t promise a triumphant return to the limited blogging I did, or even that I’ll be at the computer much past what I have to be for work. But I can give a list of new year hopes….
- Make time to read more blog and technology news
- Make time to learn new languages, both computer and linguistically speaking
- Train myself to jog a 5k
- Weight training to get rid of some skin
- Loose another 2 stone
- Work on Friday’s and save money like a mad man
- Learn to be confident and random on a night out without alcohol
As you may have guessed, the last is quite important in helping with the rest in some way or other.
Wow, i’ve spent the past few months hiding from my pc and tumblr and etc etc etc
that is all…. what? thought i was back? wait till christmas :)
I know im not a student, but since freshers week I have had an awesome time, taking every opportunity to get drunk and chill the fuck out. With it being my bday next week I’ve decided it must continue at least until after then…
that is all.
I’ve had many project idea’s over the past year but never done them for varying reasons - I’ve decided in these months running up to end of year, I need a project to work on that’s all mine (geeky development) … not only that I need new hosting, I’m thinking of moving to a vps or dirt cheap dedi after reading a blog by zef
jogging routine
so i moved eatlog permanently to a tumblelog - here’s a quick post about my jogging routine…

So, since 140 chars doesnt cut it, I thought I’d post here and link up!
Let me begin by saying I’ve gone through a few different services and had my ups and downs with all of them. At its most basic I used to be hooked on IRC channels then forums and msn etc, but thats not the type of service I’m on about.
I never did myspace, I just disliked it from the start for some reason. I did join facebook, and loved it but I prefer flickr etc for photos and dislike the integration possibilities. Then of course there’s twitter, which I still use, its great to see links flying past and I have my second account which has helped me keep track of my food and loose weight. After that, there was pownce, which I loved untill it shut down, even tho it seemed innevitable as messages slowed.
I used strands for a while when Drew O was championing their cause - but as the focus of the site changed it didnt suit what I was after (my focus may have changed now, but thats for another blog). I also joined FriendFeed - which I’m still on and finally i’m getting to the point of this post….
I must admit, i’m slightly worried over any merger / takeover / selling of Friendfeed, its not a problem with Facebook. I personally feel, friendfeed has grown greatly, improved loads and has a good feature set - but I was excited to see where they would head with the service and what unique offerings they could bring to the table!
My worry is that the merger will end up with Facebook eating up Friendfeed, some features going into Facebook, some being left and that Friendfeed will either chug along for a long time or eventually disolve.
But, on the flipside I’m also eager to hear / read / watch all the interviews and news bits over this next week to see what others have to say and see if i’ve miss-judged the situation completely
