main bit This page looks very fancy in a modern browser, with "stylesheets" and "layout" and thing, but frankly I prefer the way you're seeing it here. Congratulations for not crumbling to the Browser Upgrade Initiative! Support the Web Designer Downgrade Conclusion!

audio evil - now with visual evil

IT Conversations has put my OSCON To Evil! keynote from last year up, which is really nice of them. Just so you get all the jokes, here are the To Evil! slides that went along with it. I guess I'll just have to pray the Lazyweb will write something to synchronise the two. The presentation uses huge uncompressed images, and ingenious S5 presentation javascript magic. About five minutes before the talk I tried to make the standard S5 CSS a little more evil; I'm absolutely sure I succeeded.

In other news, you have no idea how proud I am that the Web2.0 Bullshit Generator uses "life-hacks" as one of the keywords. I'll be a footnote to history yet!

i'm baaack

One of my New Year's Resolutions is to Get Out More. I've been tied up with a new job with EFF and a new home in an exciting city, both of mean I really ought to get out more, and speak more online. Somehow, I've managed to do the opposite, and have largely disappeared off everybody's maps.

So, I'm determined to be a bit more visible. Yesterday, I gave an interview for EFF on Wikinews; tomorrow evening I'm hosting the regular monthly CopyNight at 21st Amendment in my new city of San Francisco. And at the Godforsaken time of 7.00AM PST, I'll be sitting on my own on IRC in irc.freenode.net, #techactivism amusing myself while watching the Broadcast/Audio Flag hearings being webcast. Drop in if you want to see a bleary-eyed man trying to make sense of Washington politics.
