I have over a thousand photos from Malaysia / Singapore spanning some 16GB, which has added considerably to my growing collection of unsorted photos sitting on my hard drive. »
I’m in Malaysia at the moment, on the current random tour of a random country chosen minutes before I left. This one didn’t start where this post does, but that’s my prerogative. Call it bloggers licence. Get over it. »
For the past week, I’ve been travelling around the Copenhagen area of Denmark, and south Sweden. The usual stash of photos have made their way back, and onto this photo story. »
Anyone that’s spoken to me in the past week will know I’m currently slightly obsessed with Elephant Parade London 2010 currently on display all around the city. »

My backup strategy for my machines at home can be effectively described as “scatty, but thorough“. Or at least until I actually have a major crash and need to recover that important file that was outside of my normal documents, code repositories, and archived folders. »
Last week, I went to the Google Technology User Group in London, which was all on the subject of Google Wave.

This is the first of the embedded Waves using the embed api (embeddy@appspot.com). If you’re in the Wave, you can add comments to this one and see them both here, and on my blog. This really demonstrates a lot of the appeal of Wave for me. Although it’s a bit chicken-and-egg, as it’s still in a relatively closed beta. »
Having taken the shiny new Nikon D90 with me on my trip to Berlin and Hamburg, I’ve come back with just over 1,000 photos. A large amount, even for me. So in a departure from the norm, I’ve chosen to only upload a selection of them to the public view of Blakepics. »
