Adding this to my list of things to do "one Easter". This year's Easter list has already been curtailed due to me coming down with the ear infection from hell.

Great chart showing the words people of different ages & sexes use to describe themselves on last.fm. The “about me” on my last.fm profile is blank…

BBC News - Tech Know: BBC Micros used in retro programming class
“Unforgiving interface”?! Acorn DFS. That’s the disk file system version, cassette tape was unforgiving!
I love the clip from Micro Live - I remember the show all too well, I’d love the BBC put more of it up on iPlayer.
