7 things I would change about Facebook

I really like Facebook. It’s a great website for connecting with friends and sharing pictures and stories.

That's not unusual, and so I checked and re-checked the new code that I'd written. Nope, it was bug free! This was when I discovered the Anti-Bug Pattern, which occurs when there...

Someone was talking to me on twitter and refered me to www.sadtrombone.com and I got to thinking, why not setup my own site www.badum-tish.com. Checked the name with www.who.is, it was available. So bought the name in about 5 minutes and set the www DNS record to point to my VPS (65.75.252.119). Created a simple bit of HTML and grabbed a sound...

Twitter game - just for fun!

Ok, random mad idea. Just for fun... a random twitter game. On twitter it's not unusual to pick up the odd random nice follower, but every now and then you'll tweet a keyword that a bot will pick-up on and you'll get a "spam follower".
