Hueco Mundo

Whilst I enjoy doing cryptic/abstract titles to my blog posts I have come to realise that from a usability (read SEO) perspective, it isn’t very useful. This realisation may have come around the same time that I found out the number 1 search term used when finding this website is ‘Stamps’. Hmmmm. So, what is [...]

Long Time No Post

Is it strange that we still call these posts? I suspect that this hark back to past meaning will stick around in much the same way that the icon of a floppy disk will always mean ‘save’ despite floppy disks having died out years ago.

The iPhone was ‘found’ and then given to Gizmodo after it was apparently lost by some hapless Apple employee. You’ve got to feel sorry for the employee who may well not [...]

An Investigation Into Expression
