If you’re trying to mess around with the html head area in laconica (to stick in a load of mobile stylesheets for instance) then the file you’re looking for is lib/util.php. This post is yet again brought to you by my inability to remember anything that isn’t written down, and preferably indexed by google. »
If you’re using the UserAgent Switcher Firefox extension you may want a profile that matches the S60 browser as found on most decent Nokia phones. Import this XML file into your extension and you’ll have a profile that matches: “Mozilla/5.0 (SymbianOS/9.2; U; Series60/3.1 NokiaN95/21.0.016; Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1 ) AppleWebKit/413 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/413” Which is (currently) the most recent firmware of an N95. This is handy for going to see BBC Mobile and actually getting a mobile version of the site. »
If you own a nokia smartphone I would encourage you to try this rather decent product that our friends at Google have created. It’s good. Later I shall tell you why. »
Where’s London Yahoo? Wrong! Where’s London Google? Wrong! Where’s London Multimap? Wrong! Update: According to Natasha, who knows more: Nelson’s Column not Charing Cross. Still wrong though! »

The Dyson DC16 is the most masculine object I have ever owned. For certain values of owned of course, in that my girlfriend owns one, my parents own one, my friends own them, I do not. So I thought I would write a little about why I like it and why I think it’s a successful product. The key to the allure of the DC 16 that it actually delivers on the promise of a handheld vacuum cleaner. »
I get a lot of email into my gmail that isn’t for me. This is to be expected, and no, it isn’t spam but i have the (fairly common) firstname.surname (which is also firstnamesurname) and many people in the world just can’t read, write or understand.
