Yes, we're up and running, as the more astute amongst you will have guessed that I have recently seen the flawed, but non-the-less excellent Dark Knight recently. On no, I said that Dark Knight is flawed, no doubt inviting a flood of angry comments from mad people. Well I'm sorry, but the late Heath Ledger aside, Dark Knight is highly flawed: 1) it's far too long; 2) it has an insane morality, which just pisses me off; 3) and this is UK specific, and not really the movies fault, but it should never be rated as 12A far too disturbing; 4) I expect outrageous gadgets, but the bat-eye (or whatever it was called) at the end was just plain stupid; 5) the fact that no one on either of the ferries at the end detonated the bombs (I really wanted to have my suspicion that the Joker had lied to them about which detonator was which confirmed); 6) the fact that the Joker was unable to detonate the bombs after the deadline - he'd made a promise which deserved to be kept! I could go on, but have no desire to turn this into a rant - especially as I had not even intended to expatiate about the film in such detail!
Ho-hum, what to write, what to say? Housekeeping now, to calm and offer a chance to reflect after my rant: I am fully into Web 2.0 now, eagerly awaiting Web 3.0 - but let's not get ahead of ourselves - you can follow me on twitter I also use host of IM devices, but with the greatest respect I feel it is inappropriate to supply details here - if you wish to communicate with me through this medium then contact me through the comments and you never know!
What else? Um, well to give Mr. Jobs his due I should inform you that this is coming to you via a Mac as I am at home, and spared the horrors of a Windows based GUI. Of course I am being a snob - hey I'm a Mac user for crying out load - and, grudgingly, I acknowledge that Windows does have it's uses (we just need to work out what they are), but Mac's are just so... groping blindly for an adjective and failing miserably, Mac's are just so. They sit resplendent - they are sickeningly handsome items - unobtrusively getting on with whatever you desire them to do, without ever feeling the need to display a blue screen, unless asked to of course, they are "just so."
But enough, I promised myself that I would not rant, and here I am, my first post and I have ranted twice before I have even bid you welcome - how remiss, your forgiveness is requested, but not expected.
