The problem of lost headphones has limited my podcast listening, but now they've been residscovered, in addition to the wonderful content put out by my employers, I shall mostly be listening to the latest from Twit.tv, and Giantbomb.

Really interesting to have a reminder of how you can look at things quite differently.

Things strike me:

1. Kings Cross Underground is a complete cluster***k that should be
just kept closed until they've finally worked out crossing passenger
streams is a bad idea. Seriously. They could have dug more tunnels in
the time it's been broken and yet every day it's the same.

2. Why is it Nat Express don't offer 89p burgers, or whatever the
MacDonalds price is - considering either people get on late trains
clutching a bag of bad food, or wishing they did? Gouging prices just
means I go hungry and east toast.

3. Public transport is an OK concept. Public transport every day with
idiots becuase there's no other option is a crap concept foisted on
those with no alternative, hence the ridiculous pricing and service.
If I hand over my card to spend £500 plus, I'd at least get a smile,
even in a poncy Covent Garden clothes store.

Interesting to see how Augmented Reality could become more integrated as something useful, rather than the novelty element - not sure Nokia are quite there yet.

'Well, obviously we'd prefer to do it in daylight'

I suspect this could turn into a series....

This has to be one of the best reasons for Youtube - no matter how much Google has paid and might have lost since buying it!

Just a classic (Disclosure is that I work for Absolute Radio, and spent enough time posting this elsewhere that I forgot to include it here!)

It's what I see myself doing a lot as well...

I'll admit that the singing is a little painful in some parts, but the idea and fit of the lyrics is brilliant...



There needs to be an ongoing series...
