Blog 1.0 + Blog 1.0 isn’t Web 2.0
Blogging is a lonely, difficult, and stressful and most often an unrewarding exercise in futility. But we love it.
As the end of 2007 approaches many of you will be reviewing the impact of Web 2.0 on your experiences through the year. No? Gosh you are a blogging heathen! You mean you won’t be asking yourself some profound philosophical questions about you and blogging and the state of our universe? Get outta here. What is wrong with you?
Actually, there is not a single thing wrong with you. You and I and millions of others don’t do the wondering what Web 2.0 has done to our universe.

Rant on Tuesday
In terms of evolution, I’d have thought that as a species we’d have learnt a good few things about living and creating things for members of our species and also for anything else that falls outside of our known definition of homo sapien. So why am I constantly struck by a feeling that certain social media applications are still being constructed to feed the developer/designer’s ego rather than user benefit? Are these applications too hastily and badly put together in order to be first to go live?

Scientologists Invade Namibia
December 9th, 2007 — Namibia
Look who’s trying to get hold of Namibia. Look who is taking advantage of a poor nation. Look who thinks they can just waltz in, survey police and other civic amenities and deem they have the way to improve the country and its people. Look who is a serious threat to the fabric that built and sustains Namibia.
Scientologists are a big threat to poorer nations and especially to a populus who will be more vulnerable to the scheming, cunning, seconhand car sales pitch they spew.
Watch out Namibia - the loony scientologists are coming for you.

Support Champers’s World AIDS Day
December 1st, 2007 — Global
How much more awareness about the horror of AIDS do you need?
Like me you probably are sympathetic to the issue but these days, as the epidemic rages on, we sit back and assume it is just one of those things society endures while other charitable and dedicated souls are left to fight, beg borrow or steal for research and victim support funding.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Yes?
