OK, maybe I don’t. But the name of a thing is important — some marketing types would say it’s very important — and that’s the subject of my weekly Mac blog at MacTheBlog today: MacTheBlog: Names Have Power: “OK, so Apple’s doing something next week. I’ve emphasised something there, because for all anyone outside of […]

No. No I didn’t. I’ll be more or less working through the festive season, with only a couple of significant days off. Such is the life of a busy freelancer. Sure beats being an unemployed freelancer, though. The subject line’s original song is brought up in one of my articles currently live, though, at MacTheBlog:
Well, I had two weeks of vacation time coming… Read More »
Thankfully, while the thin white duke is pretty famous, I’m not. Or at least not to the best of my knowledge. If there’s any paparazzi out there stalking me, they’re doing a very stealthy job of it. There’s a lot of my work out there that I haven’t particularly plugged as yet. I’m blaming the

A little De La Soul to finish out a busy week. Albeit De La Soul laced with a little Philly soul courtesy of Messrs Oates and Hall… While I’ve been busy banging the Movember drum so hard it’s nearly shattered, I’ve also been scribing the odd word here and there. First of all, a new

A busy day here at Alexkidman.com. And I’ve yet to update my daily Movember photo and details, even.. (subtle….) Anyway, CNET.com.au has another of my reviews up: Laser DVBT-MP32 Multimedia Plus: “It’s not the prettiest PMP on the block, but the inclusion of digital TV support makes the MP32 a great little gadget.” And MacTheBlog

Another busy week winds to an end. And the next two weeks will be even busier, as I somehow juggle full-time work and going back to the full-time-stay-at-home-dad-with-three-kids while the lovely wife has a two week prac placement at a nearby preschool. So I’d better get busy writing. And you’d better get busy reading. First

Good question. Not one I’ve had to explicitly answer, as my B.A was in History/English/Communication Studies; a weird mixed bag of things that not even my lecturers were aware was within the rules at the time. Then again, I don’t think I’ve done too badly out of it, all things considered. Today’s offerings include a
What do you do with a B.A in English? Read More »
And I’ve been getting things done. Mostly Apple-centric stuff today, at least in terms of what’s been published. At MacTheBlog, there’s my ruminations on Augmented Reality applications: MacTheBlog: Reality needs augmentation: “Now, before I start, I should point out that I really hate the term “augmented reality”.” And then at PC Authority, on a completely

A couple of Apple-centric articles to keep you informed and amused today. Firstly, PC Authority has my roundup of Australian public transport Apps: Amazing Apps for your Phone: Get from A to B on public transport: “Your iPhone can help you navigate the maze of public transport in major cities. We hop aboard the best

“The message that follows is vital to the future of you all. The choice for you all is simple; a continued existence under my guidance — or total annihilation.” Now that’s my kind of ultimatum. Straight, to the point, and with a clear-cut choice as its basis. I somewhat felt like giving my own ultimatums
