Depressingly, the US supreme court has overturned previous verdicts and decided that file-sharing technology companies are responsible for what end users do with their product (see this piece on the BBC).
This could potentially set a bit of a precedent, though… If gun manufacturers could be held accountable for every crime committed with their products…
I’ve become slightly addicted to a few things. Work, which continues to be entertaining, exciting, exchilarating and exhausting, hanging out with my girl, which is all the same (minus exhausting), and playing the entirely addictive DoTA, a video game Noel (aka cmorbutt) introduced me to a few months back. It sucks the life out of you.
Have also been on a few good walks lately (good to escape London) and am off to Edinburgh in a couple of weeks to celebrate my sister’s graduation with her (she done good!).
All good, really. Will try to be more regular, but its probably sensible not to make any promises…

apologies for technical difficulties with the site. Will try to fix the navigation soon, but realistically shouldn’t get to it till September – there are other priorities for the time being!
Man, Google’s made another pretty good acquisition. The Picasa photo-library stuff is really good – it’s sorted my 3.2GB of photos into nice, easy to view, edit and email albums. It’s pretty rockin’.
I bet SP2 adds ALL its features to Windows XP.
Man, am I a geek or WHAT?
