oops. Who broke Google.
has a phone, for the first time since Saturday!

time for a movie, but which…
finally got the code for my subtle colourful animated graphic working on http://www.trovster.com thanks for help from @rem
chickened out.

has done some tweaking on http://www.trovster.com/ which is still not 100% correct but it’s better.
thought Vodafone had sorted his mobile phone replacement, until someone has told me they’re trying to get in contact. DO NOT USE VODAFONE.
is having a Ska! day, with the new Reel Big Fish cover album and now The Forces of Evil.
has installed the HAL 9000 screensaver from http://www.halproject.com

oh, @dave_gorman on Twitter now. Definitely a man to follow.
Vodafone have the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Thinking about a mobile phone carrier, then don’t bother with Vodafone.
Are there any good event management systems with decent APIs?
And you can’t even use machine tags on Upcoming.org as the API strips the formating.
Upcoming.org’s API is terrible. Two requests just to get an event from a group & get it’s tags. Also, can’t filter events in a group by tags
has, once again, got his ‘black icon status’ on Last.fm. Third year of subscription for me.
has seriously misplaced his mobile. Looked round the house twice now and can’t find it. Annoying.
Frost/Nixon is #249 in the top 250 on IMDB. Hopefully I can push it off there with a 7. Wasn’t brilliant by a long stretch. Disappointing.
Valkyrie wasn’t much good either. I mean, casting Eddie Izzard in an historical war movie… and Bill Nighy seemed out of place too.
as I arrived home I was greeted by a white cat in my window sill. Which would be fine, but my cat is a tabby…
so, no The Dark Knight or more surprisingly, no The Wrestler nominations for Best Picture in this years Oscars.
Congratulations America. Now, when can the UK have some change?

is back from the @multipack meeting. Was planning on seeing some movies at the cinema, but it was jam backed. Should never go on a Saturday.
how to ruin a movie - watch it at the cinema. Half way through The Wrester (I’m assuming during a reel change), the screen was split 50/50.
is about to watch a “feel-good movie about someone dying”.
is off to the @multipack meeting, via the cinema to see Darren Aronofsky’s new movie; The Wrestler.
awesome, 500 error on the Cineworld homepage. The new site may look flashy but the code and/or the server must stink. Very disappointing.
also, I absolutely hate that seemingly fake positivity (and the over the top use of ‘trendy’ / ‘cool’ words) in the Tumblr promotional video
saw a tumblr post by tumblr introducing the all new tumblr dashboard. Shame though, this was on the second page for me and I hadn’t noticed!
is watching @bobbyllew do 20mph to 80mph in no time at all on his llewtube review of the Tesla car - http://youtube.com/watch?v=bJW5dVF_ss8
a reminder that the first @multipack meeting of the year is tomorrow, 2pm, at the Old Joint Stock in Birmingham.
Raphaël: a JavaScript API for SVG →
“This is a JavaScript library that provides an API for manipulating SVG, and SVG support for Internet Explorer. It achieves the latter by emulating SVG in Internet Explorer using VML.”
although I don’t follow football, http://footytweets.com seems like a really good idea.

either my cat has taken up smoking or he’s been cheekily visiting someone who smokes, he smells of cigarette smoke!
interesting. Just playing with font-face embedding a true-type font. It seems if the embedded font doesn’t have the variant, it is ignored!
So, I can’t use font-variant: small-caps with this font-embed, it won’t show the embedded font …
