Following up on a conversation with [tag]Hugh Macleod[/tag] over on gapingvoid. To me, equality in the blogosphere is not about every blogger being the same in quantity or measure of what they write. And it is not about status, whether measured by outcome, traffic, readership, quality or even those (I think fictitious) “attractive, sexually willingContinueContinue reading “Equality on the blogosphere – no gaping voids.”

Horizontal Podcasting
Had a visit from Mike at the Horizontal HQ today. Amongst getting sidetracked by the ever-flowing creative parallel thought patterns that seem to happen when we get in close proximity to each other, we managed (albeit at the last minute) to get the beginning of some thoughts down on a podcast. Blobcast #4 – HorizontalContinueContinue reading “Horizontal Podcasting”
Vertical Mouse / Keyboard
Here’s an interesting twist on the traditional mouse! This would be great as an alternative for anyone with a RSI problem or a limited use of the fore arm that doesn’t allow rotation. Check out the Vertical Mouse and that other wonderous input device, the Vertical Keyboard, over at extremetech.com. Links- Vertical Mouse Vertical KeyboardContinueContinue reading “Vertical Mouse / Keyboard”
No Metal Required
More of the Broken Shoulder Chronicles (BSC) Well, the good news from the Orthopedic surgeon today was he won’t be cutting me open. It seems the Humerus (badly worded bone) is aligned enough to let it heal as it is. He was concerned my osteoporotic bones (after sitting around immobilized for 24years) could prove problematicContinueContinue reading “No Metal Required”
What blogging is all about
Over on the Creating Passionate Users blog, Kathy Sierra writes beautifully (as usual) about the positive potential possibilities blogging has to offer. If you’re half-interested in what blogging is really all about, do yourself a favour and have a read. It’s my hope that between this, lifekludger and enableblogs, my and others lives will beContinueContinue reading “What blogging is all about”

small pieces in separate piles
I have been using delicious to tag certain web sites and articles that I think are interesting for ConnectingUp 2006 conference with the cu06 tag. I was hoping that over on technorati.com that it would pick up on the cu06 tag and display it in the page showing my delicious bookmarks, or in fact anyContinueContinue reading “small pieces in separate piles”

Horizontal HQ
So…longstanding readers would be familiar with one of my crusades to get a good way to compute whilst in bed, to make good use of my time and for those times I might be stuck there longer than desirable. With the dawn of the Broken shoulder chronicles the crusade is heating up – and youContinueContinue reading “Horizontal HQ”

Enableblogs – beginnings
Things happen so fast in this Web2.0 world it sometimes makes my head spin. If you’d looked closely at my Flicker photos you would have seen some shots of a conference between James Farmer (edublogs), Mike Seyfang (Learndog) and myself (Lifekludger) resulting in James graciously offering to host the enableblogs site – a concept whichContinueContinue reading “Enableblogs – beginnings”
It’s Broke!
Wonder why I’d been a bit quiet? I’ve been battling a sore shoulder since last Tuesday….finally got to get an x-ray today. It’s broken! Fractured! So will be a bit quiet until I figure out how to compute from bed effectively. Photos to follow……no scar, no proof! 🙂 Dave
It’s broke!
See my personal blog why the Lifekludger has been a bit quiet.
Happy Australia Day!

Knock knock
Here’s one from left-field. Even though this device is designed for a car, it holds some interesting possibilities. Like, for instance connecting to a electronic door strike as a way to enter the house. Knock-In-Key is the World’s First Back-up Entry Key for your car that requires no external devices, keys or RF signal emitters.ContinueContinue reading “Knock knock”
Who’s there?
Wandering around preparing some stuff for a presentation about blogs and what they are, how they can be used, I stumbled across a great ebook Seth Godin wrote last year. It’s called “who’s there? – Seth Godin’s incomplete guide to blogs and the new web”. As usual with Seth, good stuff – especially for newbies….well,ContinueContinue reading “Who’s there?”
