Ok, I caved… I created a Tumblr account today after seeing a colleague’s and a fellow Tweeter’s. I figured that since I rarely have the time (or the will-power) to write a full blog post here, that I would start a Tumblr blog so that I can start posting random musings (ones that don’t fit into...

Just a quick one today to talk about a service that many of you may not have heard of – Usenet. What the hell is Usenet I hear you cry? Well, back in the good old days when the word ‘internet’ wasn’t even recognized by most, a service was created called Usenet. Usenet was essentially the...

Well it seems like forever since I last made a blog post here, for which I apologize! I have been extremely busy finishing off my assignments and I am now completely finished with education, woohoo! Overall I feel my final year at University went great! I have not yet had my results back for semester two,...
