Check out Steve Martin’s business card:
This guy’s pretty convinced about his own business card too – it took him 25 years to design it! Love the quote: “I build crowds – guaranteed! What do you do guaranteed?” Hahaha.

I’ve got a 320GB 7200RPM drive in an external USB housing that I use for extra storage and backup with my 15″ Macbook Pro. I also use Parallels a fair bit because I do ASP and ASP.NET web development, so I was wondering if it’d be faster to run the Parallels VM off the external [...]

My shiny, expensive (for a 17″) TFT is being a moron and going bright for about a second before turning off its backlight so I can’t see a thing. I think it’s under warranty…I hope it’s under warranty.
Anyway you don’t care about that, you care about finding out what to do when your Philips [...]

Check out this video of a dude drawing a car in MS Paint. His skill and attention to detail are insane!

Our IT Department’s Christmas Party was at Friday’s nightclub in
Brisbane. It’s all fun and games until somebody loses their
wallet/phone/dignity.
