K has been working hard to produce a great new application for all those Kindle lovers out there. Kindle It allows you to send articles to your Kindle straight from the web.

I am very excited about FatFreeCart. I’ve just used it to create some add to cart buttons on a site I run called Sheffield Massage. The code generater on FatFreeCart is easy to use and does most of the hard work for you. You can trim the markup to make your buttons look neater (thanks […]

My beautiful new Sony laptop arrived on Monday morning. It’s a 14″ e series with a 500GB hard drive, 4GB of RAM and an i5 processor. It took me a good few minutes to depackage it because I was so worried I was going to break it – it’s pretty terrifying being left alone with […]

I’m off to Helsinki this weekend to go to Pixelache where K is going to be in the spotlight for a couple of minutes talking about his Five Filters project. Apparently there is snow on the ground there – so it will be like travelling back in time to the winter. I’ve got four books […]

Keyvan is still at Medialab Prado and although he hasn’t taken any pictures himself you can see some here. He now has his very own team of collaborators and they are well on their way to make the Five Filters a reality. It totally looks like a teccie workaholic’s paradise. In the gaps between work […]

Hip hip hooray – my photo gallery looks better today. As you know I use Zenphoto to display all my lovely pictures and today disheartened by the fact that although the theme I use with it is great to look at, sadly there was no functioning JavaScript (such as Lightbox) to make the photos look […]
