download Lost Season 2
I don't get the whole 'lost' thing... 3 years ago

Life’s too short (unless you’re stuck on that bloody island).

Gimme Deadwood, Sopranos anyday over this repetitive fluff.



get a Nabaztag
My Nabaztag 'ambient' device... 3 years ago

I got a Nabaztag (http://www.nabaztag.com) becuase I wanted to see the utility/benefit of an ‘ambient device’ , and living in the UK, can’t use www.ambientdevices.com . The nabaztag is a lot of fun, but turn off the clock – it gets irritating. It is, at the moment, slightly gimmicky, but as the services develop (ny times headlines, ning api’s etc.) it’s getting more interesting…and it’s not really ambient -it’s LOUD and flashes colours and moves it’s ears.

I thought my cats would attack it, but they’re completely ambivalent to it!

Recommended – it’s an interesting device…



visit buildings around the world designed by Herzog & De Meuron
Seems like a good way to get around the world... 3 years ago

There’s the Prada building in Tokyo, the Tate Modern in London (been there) the Allianz Stadium in Munich (pictured), I’m pretty sure they’ve got a gig in New York (MoMA?) and a Beijing stadium…hmm, maybe I should combine this list with Will Alsop and Rem Koolhaas to make it a bit easier.



Buy a Prius.
Amazing vehicle... 3 years ago

A geek’s dream…I mean, come-on, a 7inch lcd, electric everything, no key, most technically advanced consumer vehicle on the road…oh yeah and something about it being ‘green’...



learn to drive
I didn't learn to drive until I was 32... 3 years ago

I just couldn’t see the point, but it’s (obviously) completely changed my life…tip: practice like mad – drive every opportunity you can, until it’s in your subconscious, and then take your test.



Attend a Building of Basecamp workshop in Copenhagen before Reboot 7

a packed day – take copious notes, you’ll want to pore over everything.

Worth every penny…a reallt insightful look into doing stuff ‘right’
