Spring cleaning

This afternoon as I was cleaning my bookcase I found my old high school scrapbook. I found a receipt taped in with the note “the first time I bought alcohol”, dated 1996 making me 16 years old.

Stay classy

I have taken a lot of photos

As noted this evening while doing a back up of my photos directory. Nine years, 4 digital cameras, 47GB. Perhaps one day I will share more of them.

That's a lot of photos

Facebook steals your shit

An Auckland Facebook user had a photo from his Facebook profile stolen and used on on of those IQ test ads, as reported by The Herald today.

I have long been wary of Facebook (only uploading profile photos but putting everything else on Flickr with Creative Commons, although obviously even this is too much).  I guess it is true that Facebook truly is the Darth Vader of Web 2.0.  They will steal your copyright, your right hand, and then turn out to be your father.

Marcus Intalex & Doc Scott @ Samurai HQ 03/2009

I have a mad obsession with drum and bass, especially that which is played by Marcus Intalex & Doc Scott.  They just toured New Zealand (where I had the best night out ever, actually) and while they were here they recorded a 3-hour mix at the Samurai Music HQ with Presha.  Download and enjoy!

Kutiman YouTube mash-ups

This is truly something – tune/video mash-ups of various videos from YouTube. Genius!
