Gadget Envy

So, here I am, suffering gadget envy. Half the team at work has iPhones - the things seem to be like some kind of disease. Every time I turn around someone else has one.

Google's new Language

So, Google's got a new language - "Go" which seems pretty cool.

Except, I'm pretty sure it's a prank.

After all, what would the next release of "Go" be called, but "Go2".

And as we've all known for years, that's considered harmful.

I blogged about that!

Reading Digg today, I stumbled across How Apple's Magic Mouse works, a breakdown (tear-apart) of Apple's new Magic Mouse, showing the sensors it uses to support Multitouch.

I was immediately stuck with the thought "I blogged about that!" - just over a year ago, in October 2008, I suggested creating a multi-touch mouse to combine the benefits of regular mousing with the dexterity of multi-touch.

Attended a great Wellington User Group presentation last night, delivered by Owen Evans on the subject of Behaviour Driven Development.

Really made at lot of the stuff I've read over the last couple of years jell together into something at least semi-coherent. Looking forward to trying this stuff out for my self - and hoping to come across as competent at my own upcoming presentation!
