Great things from Google Maps

I wanted to see how to get from Melbourne, Australia to Fukuoka, Japan (don't ask!). So, hey, this is what google maps is for right? Directions?

Here is step 40:



Um... Kayak across Pacific Ocean?!

More about Lifetimes Magazine, Donald Beskine.... etc

I got a very interesting email today... it read something like this:

Somehow came across your blog with information on your unfortunate dealings with Donald.
I worked for Donald last year and remember speaking with you about advertising in the magazine which at the time I believed in and worked hard for but his business etiquette left a lot to be desired. Not refunding you did not surprise me because he did it to a lot of people and he was very good at avoiding calls. He did not pay me for my last two weeks there, siting many different ridiculous reasons.
The only people that got somewhere with him were the few that showed up at his office and refused to leave until he paid them.


In related news, it seems that the magazine came out... but I have not seen it. There is an online edition, which does have my ad (though I don't remember approving it to be used online).

more 4

You have to love more 4. They are showing 'Death of a President', the excellent mockumentary about someone offing George W, tonight. Shame that they are not in the US!

Sometimes 'Stumble Upon' brings up some real goodies!

FilmAmora.com breaks Top 100,000

It ain't much, but I'm happy. Not bad for only 6 weeks open:

FilmAmora.com - the innovative DVD-Rental website has broken the top 100,000 sites visit by people from Spain.

In operation for only 6 weeks, FilmAmora.com has taken Spain by storm as the new, exciting and inexpensive way to rent movies. With unlimited rental plans starting from €9.99 a month there is no cheaper way to get your DVDs. And with the biggest selection in Spain, more than 35,000 titles, its the way to finally see all those movies you’ve head about!

More recording




It's been a busy month! FilmAmora launched, another new venture - an ice hockey pool site in Canada - ramped up development, and there was more time in London in the studio with David Waldner.

We recorded another five tracks (though technically last time I think it was 4 as I didn't play on one). Once again we were recording at The Way Studio, with Luke Buttery behind the console.

I also got a chance to listen to the last set of songs and I have to say it is sounding SWEET!

Hopefully in a couple of months the whole thing will be done and you can pop over to Dave's site to start buying it!
