Just a quick little post to let everyone know that the “Top Readers” plugin will be resetting on January the 1st (in other words the commenters count will be set back to 0 for the plug-in), and continue to tick for a further year. This will give newcomers a chance to get their name in [...]

It’s come to the time to wind down and review and look at the year which has almost passed. I’m doing a little review of what technology purchases I made personally this year. In other words this doesn’t include birthday or Christmas gifts, only objects I bought myself.

MacBook Core Duo
I had been eyeing up a [...]

Each and every Friday I post a desktop wallpaper for all the Mac users out there. The image is taken using my Canon 350D DSLR. Photography really interests me and this gives me a nice way to showcase some work, while giving readers something for nothing.
The wallpaper is sized at a resoultion of 2560×1600 pixels, [...]

At the moment there’s a lengthy discussion going on at Lifehacker about software that their readers have purchased this year, technology blogger Paul Stamatiou decided he would turn his purchases into a blog post, so I’m doing the same.
Here is a list of the applications I have paid for this year and am planning on [...]

I’ve been asked numerous times by email as to what my photography workflow is. I thought I’d start with my “In The Field” workflow. Workflow will change on a person to person basis, so what I’m doing might not be the best solution in your case, but for what I do it works very well.

Well guys, thats another Christmas gone. I had a great time with my family in Auckland, and also picked up a few cool new toys. Here’s an overview of a few of the tech items I received over the holiday period.

Canon 75-300mm Telephoto Lens

Often when I am sitting at the computer and have to work, I get distracted by all the other things going on in life and this often drains away all my motivation and inspiration from writing the masterpieces I know I can.

How do you get inspired to write? I personally didn’t know, until I found [...]

This is how the game works: I tell you five things that you might not know about me, then I tag five people. They do the same, and each of them passes it on to 5 other people.
The game was started by Jeff Pulver. He started by tagging the video blogger, Steve Garfield. Here’s the [...]

Most of you will have seen the above icons by now, if not, these are the new icons Adobe are using with their creative applications in Creative Suite 3.
I’ve seen so many different opinions regarding these icons over the last 24 hours, so I thought it was my turn to chip in with a word [...]

Hey guys, just a quick post letting you know that I will be away from tomorrow morning for a week. I’m off to a cricket tournament for the Bay Of Plenty and will be unreachable for the time. In other words, I’m going to be absent from technology in the next week…refreshing.
Have a great week, [...]

I’ve been browsing Flickr alot recently and have seen hundreds upon hundreds of photos from Apple’s Photo Booth. I really dont know why anyone would bother going through all the hassle to take photos, export them, then upload to Flickr. They dont need to go through that pain anymore, because FlickrBooth will do it all [...]

Wow, today’s been pretty eventful. This afternoon I went over to the dentist for a check-up, then went to the mall to finish my Christmas shopping. When I got home I popped open Mail and saw an email from good friend Paul Stamatiou congratulating me on been accepted into the 9rules network.
I’ve been checking the [...]

Recently while browsing Flickr I came across an image from user Shaahin. The image was a Photoshop mockup of what he wants an Apple mail application to look like.

He says: These days every new Macintosh app looks like Mail.app, so I was thinking about a unique logo for the application, to give it a different [...]

After taking the plunge on a DSLR and moving to Aperture, I am demanding a machine with more power to edit my images and perform system intensive tasks such as editing video and audio content. I have a few gripes about my current setup, firstly, the RAM restriction. I can only install up to 2GB [...]
