Week of Monday, 7th of June 2010 Flickr Stream Monday was a Bank Holiday in Ireland, so we had the day off. Over the weekend I had decided that I really didn’t want to spend another week reading research papers, so I was set to do as much coding as possible. I started off on [...]

During the opening festivities they strongly encouraged us to keep a personal diary and to note things down that we did week by week, so that when we came to do our final poster presentation we wouldn’t be stuck trying to remember what happened during the [...]
I’ve been watching Google as they’ve been developing their 3 Operating System products, and there’s one thing that strikes me about it. They all seem to be coming from the same place, and they all seem to be heading to the same destination. Albeit by different paths. The Chrome Browser is their successful competitor to [...]
