• Across the Golden Gate

  September 2, 2003

  So the holiday rolls on (and I'm using my computer, I know, I know...) Wednesday we mooched around a bit, including going up Mount Hamilton on the eastern side of the valley. Unfortunately there was too much haze / smog to get a good view of below once we'd got to the top.

• Back in California

  August 27, 2003

  So after 3 1/2 years, I've returned to California for a holiday, and its great to be back. :) I'd forgotten just how stunning the geography and climate are here.

• MP3s & Album Art

  July 31, 2003

  I was walking to work this morning, scrolling through my iPod choosing what to listen to, and I thought "wouldn't it be great if I could view by album cover, just like MusicMatch can". I think it would be good since there's some weird emotional association between the album art and the music itself.

• First 36 hours in New York

  July 21, 2003

  I flew into New York (for the first time ever) on Thursday evening to catch up with an old friend from home who was also visiting the Big Apple. Maybe its because I've been in Boston for 2 months (and don't like it hugely as a town compared with London), but I really love New York already. It seems to have lots of the great things about London and then compresses it together so you don't have to take a 40 minute cab ride across town to get between ports of call.

• Global Underground

  July 20, 2003

  Global Underground have a great series of dance CD's ... which I really should start buying. I'm currently listening to #20 - Darren Emerson (ex-Underworld and all round god of a DJ.)

  So having not updated my old weblog in ages, here's what I've been up to recently.
