SmartData‘s considering this as a new slogan to replace “Enjoy smart business. Make data work for you.” We’ve all been asked to ‘try out’ the proposed new slogan with friends/family/whoever and get some feedback, so I thought I’d put it on my blog. Here we go:
Free time. Work easy. SmartData.
Comments, please.
Sometimes being a geek is funny.
Contrary to my perpetually changing plans, we’re off to see Bubba Ho-Tep at the Arts Centre tonight – 8pm. If you’re in town and need a slightly more relaxed night out, come along!

Yay! I’ve got a page on RockMonkey.
Plug.

The Gender Genie is quite remarkable. Copy-paste a heap of your journal entries (and state that journal entries is what they are) and it will attempt to guess your gender, based on the language used (and partially explain it’s reasoning).
I’m apparently male, with a two-thirds certainty. Not bad.
Generate apathetic journal entries automatically. This tool revolutionises blogging for those sad fucks who only uses their weblogs to say that they haven’t done much and that they haven’t had time to update, sorry (in case anybody’s reading it).
