Kiting washed out

Went out with the kite today... Put it up in the rain... Then blue
skies arrived... Without wind though...

Eventually we got going. Good times.

Only an hour or so and rain returned so I've sought refuge in the pub.

FollowUpThen - A great email reminder service...

Have only been using Follow Up Then today but already it's great!

A simple service whereby you CC or BCC the service to follow up on
your email conversation.

For example, the sender says they'll have an update in a few days... I
simply reply saying "great, speak then" and CC
"2days@followupthen.com"

Two days later both I and the sender get a reminder to follow up on
the email conversation (optionally the reminder can be sent just to
me).

It's so simple and effective = it works. Currently it is free. So go
give it a try :)

Here's their intro video:

Traveling is easier with a concierge

I'm going away next week in the UK and where we're staying they have a
concierge service. I've never really used them before (concierge) but
now that I am I don't think I can go without again.

It's been so easy to simply mail a request and know that within 24hrs
it has been taken care of. It makes everything about the trip that
much easier as I know I can just arrive now and everything will have
been taken care of and will continue to be whilst I'm there.

This has been especially handy traveling with a baby as the concierge
has helped with babysitters etc.

Looking forward to the break away even more now :)

The place is http://www.naturalretreats.com/

Amazon recommendations broken big time.

Photo

I've bought surprisingly little from Amazon. What I have bought are
items such as a PlayStation and Flip video camera.

Amazon recommendations, for me, is a flood of accessories for such
devices. I notice today though apparently buyers of this gadgetry are
also natural fans of Tony Blair thus would like his new book also.

Eh?!

UX from Twitter iPad > iPhone

Twitter for iPhone needs the pull to reveal conversation thread
feature (two finger downward swipe on a tweet) a la Twitter for iPad.

I know this is needed because I just tried to do it without thinking on iPhone.
