Gooie

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

I don’t know about you but I am sick of people pronouncing GUI as “gooey”. NO!! GUI is an abbreviation not an acronym! If you really want an acronym to use then I suggest Gooie or Graphical Object Oriented Intuitive Environment. There we go, if you say “gooey” I will assume you are talking about Gooie and not GUI since there is a minute difference between then which I will not go into but you should be aware of….

Edit: as mentioned Mr. Mac from The Decline helped develop the Gooie acronym.

Clio and an Apology

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

Yes, yes I know. I haven’t really been keeping to the posting schedule.

TheĀ  thing keeping me busy is Clio, my little eeepc, yes I have one of those, and it is probably the best little laptop in the world ever! But more on her next week.

Thought of the Day

Ann Summers and Apples logos are very similar…go ahead and check, both apples with a little bite taken out of them. Hopefully Steve Jobs isn’t thinking of going into the lingerie business can you imagine? Lingerie that could only be used by 5% of women….

Yeah, I forgot to prepare an article today…

PageRank wrecked the web

Thursday, January 3rd, 2008

Heya all, as you may have seen I am still working some kinks out in the site. Because of that I am not going to start with the articles today.

Instead Iam going to direct you to a post by Rich Skrenta entitled PageRank wrecked the web. In it Rich summarises what I and many other people have been saying for a while.

The end part of the article is a nice declaration.

Google is the cause of all of this.
and Google is going down with it.

Listen up Google, you started it, and in time the good, decent developers of this world will finish it.
