I've seen trailers on it but it was in the cinema ages ago. I heard al gore on radio 2 at the time as well. He really would have been better than george bush.

Thunder Road of course. Too easy!

It would be great if he performed that.

Re: A New Phone ?

One of my mates here at uni has the N95. Its really impressive. Its basically got most of the features you could ever want. Bit of a brick though and it is really pricy. The newest samsung slide looks nice but I'm not a huge fan of their cameras which I'm sure will be an issue to you. See you tonight for more discussion.

Did you actually read the quoted bit? The show is on BBC One on Friday. See you at the pub tonight

Re: Is it just a form of slander ?

It's only slander if it's not true. If it's accurate, which it seems to be, then nothing should be done.

Minor point: it would be libel not slander.

It seems the group has been removed. How wrong.

Nice work. I assume it's the radio nowhere video that did it!

Re: It’s Not Lupus

Mike Smith — Sun, 30 Sep 2007 09:43:35 -0000

The newest episode had a janitor suggest lupus in an inside jibe.

I've personally seen lupus (or SLE) twice in hospital in a month. It's clearly not that rare.

Was that original content?

I have to be honest that wasn't the hardest thing I've ever had to guess. Nice to see he's made it though!

Already Stumbled it!

Re: I got IMAP

Mike Smith — Wed, 24 Oct 2007 15:37:28 -0000

Yeah I've got about the same amount of space too. No IMAP though, not that I would have any purpose for it.

Re: I like innovative bands

That is a really good system. When I saw barenaked ladies in March I was able to buy the audio of the show for about £5 off their website to download. They have been doing that for a few years.

I like the idea of it all being included in the ticket price. Makes it all a lot more seamless, allowing the buyer to feel less ripped off.

Of all the pictures!

Re: A Samsung camera ?

Mike Smith — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 12:12:56 -0000

One of my housemates has one and it's pretty poor. I'd stick to the traditional camera makes. You have to ask why it is they can afford to give away the frame. They are unlikely to lose much (likely none) on the cameras.

The best place I've found for reviews is:

Looks nice. The sony cameras always have a good reputation.

Love it

Re: BBC admits Lotto button is a fake

Mike Smith — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 16:19:49 -0000

Yawn. Not very interesting. I don't see why they still feel the need to broadcast it. Just do the whole thing behind closed doors.

Slow news day at kylemayne.com. I saw the in the Metro several weeks ago. I think they said some of the passengers had concerns when they saw signs for Brussels.

It never crossed my mind to keep the name. I was actually just using Mikes Music as a temp name until I came up with something better. To be honest it makes more sense to keep the name given it's musical link. I may well change it back by the end of the day.

Hmm, odd the comment box didn't appear straight away.

I wish I was in your situation right now. Instead I type this in the library before I go back to learning the difference between hepatitis A,B,C,D and E.

Perhaps instead of doing a website for a company, produce your own company. All you need is a killer idea...

Re: Magic Highlights Tour

You aren't kidding it's expensive. You'd think they would put loads of tracks on there given they aren't losing anything and the profits go to charity.

I can't understand the thinking.

Re: A fish, sea monkeys or a cat?

Mike Smith — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 11:52:33 -0000

That is their standard practice. When I called with reference to broadband I had the same problem. It is the stupidest system ever. When i called though they wouldn't even confirm the secret question!

Going to put this on my ipod and consider it on my way to exams. Will post on twitter my thoughts

Re: Digg For Jokes

Mike Smith — Wed, 04 Jul 2007 14:36:57 -0000

You weren't wrong when you said it's missing a few features! The idea is great but it really could do with a digg-style front page so you can see which are the best jokes. I'm not going to crawl through the list to find the high ratings.

Good Blog by the way, keep up the good work!

Re: The Myth of School Year Traffic

Mike Smith — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 08:16:18 -0000

I have to disagree. During term time there are more events going on therefore more pictures being uploaded. Same applies for relationship statuses etc. People will be more likely to spend time on Facebook looking at these things.

Also during term time people are constantly looking for a way out of doing work. I know I am! Therefore people use it more during term time.

While these are just possible reasons, my personal experience reflects them. Most of my Uni friends who are heavy facebook users are using it far less over the summer break.

"If Facebook expanded their privacy settings just a little bit, they could end Facebook’s success."

Perhaps some editing is needed.

Good point though, interesting to ponder.
