Frintr
A week ago today I launched Frintr. It’s a project, of my own inception, that I’ve been working on for 10 months. The basic gist is that you create a mosaic of your own profile picture from all the smaller profile pictures of your friends from Facebook, Twitter and Myspace, which you can then have printed and sent to you as a poster. So not only has the project been technically difficult in terms of web development, but it’s also been a huge learning curve in terms of setting up my own business and cultivating an authentic brand. What’s more, even though the site is now live, there is still plenty more work to be done.

Lenny, Nginx, FastCGI and Symfony

Being Ordinary

#uksnow timelapse
I love snow, it makes everywhere look so beautiful and clean, plus it disrupts all those boring things like work and school. So I also love Ben Marsh’s Twitter mashup that plots #uksnow tagged tweets onto a map. Watching Ben’s map I itched to see the ebb, flow and movement of the tweets across the country, did they form perceivable fronts that reflected the paths of weather systems?

Cyberpilgrimage
I suspect there are many who would find it odd that religion and the Internet appear in the same sentence, let alone the same word. Yet I’m sure most would agree that the Internet is having profound effects on the world and that we are only just seeing the start of it. To remind ourselves of why the Internet might have more relevance to religion than we might otherwise first think let’s begin by looking back to the other great paradigm shifts in media technology.
