I wasn’t going to write a post about 2008, it’s been a year of turmoil, trouble and quite frankly, with one major exception, it’s been a year I’d rather forget. This year has seen the end of my life in Denmark, multiple job changes, more changes of address than I can count on one hand [...]
My feed got flooded! Sorry!

I was testing out a new plugin (Shared Items Post) for sharing my Google Reader shared items as a daily post when I had a bit of a snafu, which resulted in anyone subscribed to the blog by RSS or email receiving 14+ versions of the same post. I’m sorry I didn’t update on this [...]

Most realistic spam I've seen in a while
November 19, 2008 By 14 Comments
This attempt at a PayPal phishing scam is the most realistic spam email I’ve seen in a while. Their only slip up is the return email address and the fact that the gmail address they sent it to is not my PayPal account. from service@paypal.com <service@paypail.com> reply-to service@paypal.com to Paul <paul.oflaherty@gmail.com> date Tue, Nov 18, [...]
Three mobile impresses with 385 KB/s download
November 18, 2008 By 1 Comment
I’ve been using my Three mobile broadband connection while at work and travelling around to keep up with my email, twitter, feeds, video Skype calls with Sara and besides a few minor connectivity issues I’ve been generally impressed by the speed. Impressed that was until today, when I clocked the download at a whopping 385KB/s [...]
Engrish Funny – Retard Capsules and that’s not a typo!

I love Engrish Funny! As someone who’s made more than enough embarrassing mistakes speaking in other languages I can sympathise with all the posts on this site but have to admit it’s side splitting! Oh, it’s also from the guys behind FAIL Blog. Engrish Pictures and other Funny Engrish Mistakes in English from around the [...]
I've protected my Twitter updates
November 14, 2008 By Leave a Comment
While my idiot stalker lacks the intelligence to realize that my Twitter account will NEVER contain anything that could be used against me or others (in court or otherwise), he continues to pounce on every random comment I make and use it to harass people who are near and dear to me. At one time [...]
The buzz has left blogging. Wah wah, f’n wah…

Nick Carr asks “Who killed the blogoshpere?“. In an excellently constructed piece he laments the blogosphere and compares it to Ham Radio‘s which, oddly enough, while once being the domain of the über geek back in the day, still have over 3 million registered operational users, which is double what Technorati believe is the current [...]
Use FutureTweets to cheat… er… plan your life
November 11, 2008 By 1 Comment
Thanks to FutureTweets you can no longer trust my twitter account. Seriously, I could be on a plane to Alabama and you could be reading Twitter updates on my feed about how “‘orrible the Cork weather is”. FutureTweets is a neat concept in that it allows you to schedule tweets for the future or even [...]
