Link roundup.

[ewt]

Spot Scout reminds me of people living near stadiums renting out their driveways before and after football games. It's not something I've seen done here; maybe there are rules, or maybe there just isn't enough space, or maybe nobody in their right mind drives to games. Anyway, getting this sort of thing online is neat. Even if it is for dirty cars. From Wired News, and I don't know where I got the link before that.

Office Supplies Trebuchet. Beautiful. If I still worked in offices, I would do this. And where else would I get a link like this except [Unknown site tag]? Lovely stuff, folks.

I really like this phone. Wifi would make it actually useful for intarweb access, because, um, there are unsecured wireless networks all over hell's half acre (ie Lodnon). Wifi is your friend. Although of course it's tempting to get something that doesn't try to cram so many functions into one device, and has a lot more processing power. Something like the MacBook, or a TX Series Vaio, although the Vaio UX Micro is also fairly shiny. Of course, this is all wishful thinking, because I am skint. No dosh, no shiny. Damnit.

Remember the little black box GPS logger? Well, there is a cheaper one, here - not as sexy as the one Thinkgeek sells,

And I just fell into ThinkGeek. Nooo. Didn't buy anything, but you don't want to know how many tabs I have open in Firefox...

Bedtime. Definitely.

The design of the phone is very clever, having the camera lens on the side like that. And Diva pricked up his ears at the camera's specs, however it's a little rich for his blood :-)

I think more than my ears pricked up on that one.

Ooh er missus! :-)

I'd rent out the space outside my house, but not my actual driveway. There'd be too high a chance of a drunk football fan (passenger, one hopes!) either breaking my windows, leaving their rubbish in my garden or vomiting all over the doorstep.

But then, if they did that (and they were driving) you could report them to the police for drink driving ;-)

Guy at work has a Nokia E61. It is very shiny.
