In the past few months I’ve run into quite a few ’list’ site. I thought I’d just throw a few on the page here see if can build up a list of lists. So, here we go: http://www.engrish.com http://failblog.org http://www.headsethotties.com/ http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com/ http://www.bash.org http://www.truthbank.ie

Congrats to Brad, Alan, Dave and the whole team who worked on www.bethedifference.ie for the recent bronze kinsale shark win for Brando.

A few years ago I was in my Boss’ office in Interactve Services. He was showing me something on his computer, and I saw that his filing system was a system of folders named according to the date. So he never had a build up of files in one particular place. I took this system on-board and modified it to my needs, and just thought I’d share it here. I have a folder on the desktop called “_today”.

Site implementation I recently got set up on Twitter. I’ve been hearing about it and scuttling around it for a while now. I’ll preface this by saying that I’ve only been using this for a short while, so I may just not have found some stuff out. So far I’m digging it. The concept is very simple, sms for web. That’s it. Create a user and post a message in 140 characters.

If you’re looking for a bit more information than Task Manger manager provides, Process Explorer, also from Microsoft may be the answer. With it you can view your processess in a hierarchical tree, find out what processess are safe and find out which process is running a particular window. These are just a few of the capabilities, and you can configure it to run instead of Task Manager at the click of a button.

Brando recently completed work on the truthbank for Rabodirect. The purpose of this campaign was to emphasise the point that Rabo is a truthful bank. So, at the center of a campaign that utilised print/tv/radio/online we had a website dedicated to lifes truths. You can see the site here and judge for yourself.

After trying out a few of the Irish online shops for our equipment, I settled on Komplett about a year ago. They have good prices, a comprehensive selection and an easily navigable website. All happy out. Not quite. A while ago, they changed their online delivery options, which I think is very confusing. I needed to purchase a SATA hard drive. Having located the item on their site, I went to purchase it.

Bess has grown a little bit from the pup who arrived about the year ago. She is now a near fully grown German Shepard.

Brando finished up the online execution of the be the difference campaign for O2, offering the unique opportunity to have your name placed on an Irish players jersey during the Ireland vs England,Scotland and Wales games. You can find out more about the campaign at the Brando blog here. Visit the campaign site.

I recently dipped my toes into the Actionscript 3 toes. This is quite a readjustment from the experience of the past 7/8 years of traditional actionscript development. I was somewhat prepared after having done a lot of projects with Object Oriented programming languages. Specifically Java and C# (VB sucks balls). I, along with most actionscript developers, tried to con ourselves that first abusing the prototype property and then the abortive actionscript 2 was actually OOP.
