“dan being open” is on the move
I’ve decided to drop all my subdomain blogs and post only through mled.me
I wrote this post to kick start the move and explain my reasons for starting from scratch.
If you’d like to continue to follow this blog, you’ll need to follow mled.me from now.
Thank you and goodnight.

Neat little app that lets you view your Tumblr as a mosaic.

Now testing: Pages
You can now add static pages to your blog, with a few very useful options. Head to your blog’s Customize page and click the “Pages” menu to get started. There are currently three types of Pages you can create:
-
Standard Layout. Create a simple page with a title and body using your current theme.
-
Custom Layout. Create a page with a completely separate layout.
-
Redirect. Forward a route to a page on another domain. Useful for maintaining links when moving your domain name over to Tumblr.
Developers: Check out the Theme Docs for instructions on implementing the new {block:Pages} tag.
DOH! I’ve spent the last two weeks making a portfolio-esque site using permalinks to individual posts like pages. Now Tumblr can be used properly as a CMS, and not in the hacked about way I’ve been doing it.
Thanks very much Tumblr, I just really really wish this had come along about three weeks ago!

Really interesting talk which starts with some stats on Facebook and Farmville. I was amazed by the statistic that there are more Farmville users than Twitter accounts - Facebook is BIG
The most interesting point that is made - who is going to help us get to the point where our behaviour is dictated by marketing and interactivity with brands? I think Google will get their first, I mean, just look at Google Voice which lets you have all those cool services for free in the hope that you contribute to their databases

Sorry to do this to everyone but the last place just springed on us that they wanted 21+ only and for us all to arrive at the same time. So we’ve booked Jerusalem instead. The new start time is 7.30

There’s a Kent LUG meet that day too. Saturday 27th - the day of Meetups. Exciting stuff

This is pretty much the response you get when you ask someone that works on Debian when the next release is out
