Happy birthday to… spam!

as sung by Vikings

August 13th 2008 is the day I turn 30. Yeah, it’s been getting me down  :-(   but the nice thing about a birthday in August is that most of your school friends are older than you – so I get to feel better about turning 30 by watching other people hit it first! It has come to my attention that another ‘old acquaintance’  has just turned 30… that bastard-child of email, SPAM. That’s right, thirty bloody years of spam and we are further from stopping it now than ever before. Definitely one of the ‘hang your head in shame’ points of working in a digital industry. If only it could be more fun – like the Monty Python sketch where it allegedly gets it’s name from. The internet and email would be a much better place.

It’s a dead bloody parrot!



International Star Wars Day on blinkx

We have a huge Star Wars geek here at neoco, which is why i thought I’d mention that Blinkx have embraced their inner Star Wars geek and declared the 4th May 2008 as ‘International Star Wars Day’.

They’ve created a special page dedicated to the film series, and to celebrate this day they’ve put together a wall page with some of the best Star Wars clips, including “Star Wars Kid”, Family Guy parody clips, behind-the-scenes stuff, and even a Darth Vader shaped hot air balloon?!
