Mailchimp Email Obfuscator
I was working on a project that tried to re-skin the Mailchimp email preferences center. Unlike the Mailchimp signup form this page is a lot harder because you need to know the users information. Thankfully this is fairly easily done with some merge tags to make the correct links in the eDM (email) and the… Continue reading Mailchimp Email Obfuscator
Optimising Human potential as we head towards the singularity
The many of people, myself included have fallen into a trap. We have a set of behaviours when using a computer which are mostly there to optimise the power of the computer, not of humans. We might have to start copying a load of files and leave the computer for a while as things are… Continue reading Optimising Human potential as we head towards the singularity

There could be a major plague, like 28 days later/I am legend, a nuclear attack (more likely from a Terrorist… Continue reading Box of Epic Emergency
Android, and my suggested apps
OK, so they have finally released the T-Mobile G1, which is also know as the Google (g)Phone, and was previously called the HTC Dream. What is that you say? Well it’s a revolution in mobile phones. The phone itself is touted as being an iPhone killer, it has a big touch screen, GPS, Wi-Fi, expandable… Continue reading Android, and my suggested apps
Adelaide Zombie Walk 2008 – Post indicent report
