Diary of a Goldfish
http://blobolobolob.blogspot.comabout are Super Bad Terrible Things which hardly ever happen to anyone, or perhaps haven't ever happened yet. I don't know whether anyone was actually worried about the end of the world happening yesterday, but people do worry about that stuff, as Jack wrote about earlier in the week. Human beings will not go on forever, but it is unlikely that we will be destroyed by a single whoosh! or indeed a bang! and almost certainly not a pertwang! There are far less dramatic and more preventable disasters we should concern ourselve

Links and BBC psychology
http://www.lllj.net/blog/?p=329I was going to have a mild-mannered fortnight-late rant about the BBC’s new inline links experiment, in response to Metcalfe here and the BBC Editors blog here, but I find that SteveJack Pickard’s already done a good job (sorry, Jack, thanks for the name correction!). To summarise his articulate meltdown: why add Javascript-dependent links which pop up little boxes in the page when there’s already a perfectly workable linking metaphor called, umm, the Web.

Ten Songs
http://caramboo.com/2008/08/ten-songs/tweated that he’d posted a new blog entry. Naturally I went for a look and he’d written about ten songs that meant something to him. The post was actually a response to a similar blog entry written by JackP. In true blogging stylie, I’m going to list ten songs that mean something to me. As Anthony says: In the end the ten I’ve come up with are really just a list of 10 tracks that I can pin memories to at this moment. If you asked me the same

Ten Songs
http://www.escapecrate.co.uk/?p=588So that has been on both of our minds recently! Despite this good news I have got a few things queued up to talk about, but really I’ve been waiting for something juicy to tempt me into writing a block of text over 140 characters! Recently Jack (who has has been making me jealous with his post a day regime) gave me something that tickled my blogging fancy.

Apture trial on BBC News Website a great success
http://benmetcalfe.com/blog/2008/08/apture-trial-on-bbc-news...s original page there is always the opportunity to click through from the Apture window. However, as to be expected with any trial there has also been a number of people who have raised some concerns, mainly around the fact that the BBC isn’t directly linking to the sources and also the way in which JavaScript is used to create the hyperlinks. I thought it might be useful to provide my own perspective on these two points - given my unique position of having worked on both projects. Of course, these are my views and not
