Wikipedia Scanner

I've just read about a tool that tells you who edited articles on Wikipedia! Not who in person, but the organisation their IP address comes from.

It just goes to show no matter how noble an endeavour there is always some malcontent in the background trying to meddle and interfere.

The site is offline at the moment until the interest wanes, but check it out when it gets back online.

RTE and big brother

Don't read on if you think I am talking about the national broadcaster spying on us. I'm talking about their continued coverage (at least on their website) of Channel 4's Big Brother. Why?

If you are interested in big brother and have access to the internet, why would you go to RTE.ie to get second hand pointless information that you can get on Channel 4's website.

The pointlessness of Big Brother doesn't even come into it, and that is saying something.

So thank you RTE for wasting more of our licence fee on drivelling pointless crap!

Selling my bike

My friend is selling his 250 Maurader, and if I can sell my 125 I will be upgrading, so if you are interested be quick, like the wind, the flash, superman running fast and click here.

It's been a while

Ok, it's been ages since I last posted. Way too long, my apologies for that. It was a hectic weekend, Dublin were playing and beating Derry and we spent the rest of the day boozing. So about 3 oclock I definitely had enough. Meaning I could not take anymore without dying.

So I went on home, buying a lion bar and losing it in the 20 metre walk to the bus.

I slept and woke up feeling decidedly ropey and spent the next few hours in the recovery position. I then decided to bite the bullet and go for a run. It was the only guaranteed way to cure me, or perhaps kill me.

I did about 2.5 k and it was painful and unusual but I got to the end and I felt perkier, or to be honest slightly further form death's door.

Spent the rest of the day lolling about not able to do anything and would you believe today I feel pretty ropey still.

Roll on tuesday and recovery!

Beyond Temptation

Check out this chap. He is turning down 5 billion dollars to keep the land unmined and untouched. Now that is what you like to see.

Would I turn down that money. I don't know. I hope to think my principles could not be bought, but you woul have to see the giant novelty cheque before you could say yes or no.

Awesome website

I just StumbledUpon a site called FlashEarth. It's a place where you can use all the popular map sites in one interface. I've had a play around with it and I think it is really cool. Check it out!

They came up with the name first.

RTE have announced their new schedule. Check out the new Des Bishop show. "In the name of the fada". For the love of all things holy what sort of moron came up with that.

I think the had the name and then built a show around it.

Don't get me started on them calling a show Living the Dream. I'm the only one living the dream around here!
