NaNoWriMo completed

By Mark | Published: 15:31 Sunday 29 Nov 2009
I think mine is probably a bit of a con because it’s about me. It starts with a memory of a swing hanging from beams in a garage back in 1964 and it ends today. There is fiction only where memory has distorted naturally. I wrote it to understand more about me. I wrote to [...]

Crap seen on Facebook: Allowing My Favourite Easter Egg access will let it access your Profile information, photos, your friends’ info and other content that it requires to work. So that should really say: Allowing My Favourite Easter Egg access will let it access all your information. So why don’t they just say that?

By Mark | Published: 23:26 Thursday 12 Nov 2009
End of day 12 and I’m just over 20,000 words into my NaNoWriMo inspired project. I blogged on the 2nd whether I could would hit 20k and said “pretty sure I can”. Well I’m only just getting to the interesting parts and I still have words I need to add back before that date. So, [...]

Ipod touch now jailbroken. Each time I do this I wonder why then reverse it then see something cool I could use/try. So this time I’ll stick with it. Takes longer to restore it anyway. PSP also modded to the latest custom firmware so time to get a couple of large mem sticks and get [...]

1. Weight. I’m back on the diet. I started eating crap again and this is not good. I’m around 75kg still, target is 73 for now, it will lower. 2. NaNoWriMo. Will I write 50,000 words? No idea. Can I hit 20,000? Pretty sure I can. It’s not a story, it’s more bio based. I [...]
