    JS Oxford Indieweb presentation by Garrett Coakley (polytechnic.co.uk) Last night I attended the always excellent JS Oxford, and as well as having my mind expanded by both Jo and Ruth’s talks (Lemmings make an excellent analogy for multi-threading, who knew!), I gave a brief talk on the Indieweb movement. If you’ve not heard of Indieweb …

    This checkin to GLW6CMKQ 16th Century Pub (Central London) reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. A lovely little place.

    This checkin to GLW6CHW0 It's Not Easy Being a Purple Whatever reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Maximum stealth mode required for this one!

    This checkin to GLW69PRH Tavistock Square reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Returned as found, but the hint makes me think that it's supposed to be a lot lower down than where I found it! TFTC.

    Tim Ferriss is wrong -- no, maybe he's right! (changingminds.org) ...

    There is an American principle that success is more about what you are making than what you are worth, and even less about being able to stop working. This is a brilliant cultural driver for a strong economy as it celebrates working billionaires. In Britain, …

    This checkin to GLW5EFV2 Thames Path - Gatehampton Trail 3 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
