There have been some good chats going on locally of late in relation to video content creation and monetising video content online. A mail in the inbox over the weekend prompted me towards the YouTube Partner Programme. On the outside it’s certainly looks more like an option for those who are uploading regularly and clocking…

Don’t Call Amazon, They’ll Call You
FORGOTTEN PASSWORDS can be a pain in the ass. Especially when the security guard to get a new password issued via email includes a zip code field, which you didn’t have to enter to begin with and subsequently the form validation won’t allow the zip code to be empty. Long and short of it, my…
Online Grocery Shopping – Part Two
FOLLOWING ON from yesterday’s foray into the world of online food shopping it’s safe to say that everything arrived, is packed away in the fridge or press and I’m stocked for the week. From looking at the food on the table (in the above picture), *almost* everything arrived as ordered. As a follow up, I’ve…
Train Service Gets Connected, Wifi with Airappz
photo credit: Let Ideas Compete FIRST THEY upgraded the trains. Then there was the new seats and the power points (offset possibly by the increase in food and ticket prices for the trains themselves). Now it looks like Irish Rail users on the Dublin – Cork – Dublin service will be able to available of…

Vilamoura is the current location, then it’s on to destination Faro and Dublin tomorrow morning. They’ve got the sun. They’ve got the sea. They’ve got great food and cheap alcohol. But internet access leaves a…
10MB Broadband Sorted
Finally sorted the 10mb connection. Missed the upgrade form on the website, looks like UPCs upgrade isn’t totally automatic. Things might run a little faster. The 1mb upstream will be a help on Skype calls anyway and streaming video anyway. 30 bucks a month… plus their ‘standalone’ broadband charge (which is like a levy for…
I Should Really Get Mobile Broadband
I’ve noticed a change in my blogging trends of late. The free time that I wish to dedicate to blog posts finds me in areas where my connectivity is completely restricted. My work within the theatre has increased dramatically (no pun intended) over the last few weeks (I spent the last two weeks of June…
Delighted The Internet Has An Off Switch
In comments on my post prior to the weekend, Bernie Goldbach suggests that you have to shut off the warbles, the beeps, the bubble-ups, and the vibrating text alerts at least once every three months. To certify this, Pavlos adds Isn’t it great when we find ourselves in places and situations where the absence of…
