Tuesday - after the train wreck that is...
Ultra Gatorskin Tyres have come, when it stops raining am going to get them fitted and then might try em out next time it's dry.
6:45pm Back from InternetWorld. Made a big cockup - should have booked an open return as I felt I rushed the show. Tons of stuff of interest, quite a bit of stuff from the OpenText seminar last week also found it's way to InternetWorld. Firstly though, in my role as an I.T. professional I'm often asked what's the best way to sell internet related products and without hesitation my answer is always, "What you need, my good man, is a couple of gorgeous gals dressed in skimpy nurse outfits!" , I'll have some of what they're selling for sure. Well actually, not, as they were selling hosting and don't actually need any hosting but they certainly got my attention!!
Saw some cool stuff without two legs as well. Microsoft had a chunk of floorspace and sat through a seminar on VirtualEarth which is Microsoft's competitor to GoogleEarth. As well having spent more money on the aerial photography to get their 'Birdseye' imagery they're now in the business of modelling cities in 3D. The chap doing the presentation said they're doing this at the rate of 12 cities per week so it will be interesting to see where that goes with time. The big difference between GoogleEarth and Microsoft's VirtualEarth is that the Microsoft product stays in the browser, just a plug-in to install as opposed to a complete application.
7:00am Off to InternetWorld exhibition at Earls Court in a minute. Booked on seminars for social networking, and content as a revenue creator - like that sort of stuff, it's the future.
Steady four mile run this morning, chest pain after .7 miles again going towards Belper, then 3.5 miles no pain at all, don't know what it's all about, am ringing Doctors at 3pm to get an appointment for tomorrow will tell you then.
The Train Wreck that is Derby...
8 goals at Derby last night, two of them to Derby. Phenomenal stuff - quality Arsenal are, Dire Derby are. Not renewing season ticket and don't even feel bad about it anymore. Jewell said something like "We have not got enough men" - he's having a laugh we've got the oldest back four in the bl**dy premiership. We've not got enough young players with any confidence, mate that's the problem and you don't instil any. Ye gods, I'll be glad when he's gone halfway through next season when he's run out of excuses and the fans still haven't see much improvement.
