Gastown snowball fight
A little bit of snow and Vancouver just goes nuts. Witness technology professionals belting snowballs at each other.
The insides of my head, now in convenient blog format.
Email to Posterous overlords
Hi,
First: I love your service. The "just email us" thing is excellent, but I like that you do smart things with what gets sent to you: pictures become albums, YouTube links become embedded videos, etc. Very nice.
The *only* thing stopping me from scrapping my self-hosted Wordpress installation and going all-Posterous, all-the-time is text formatting: There doesn't seem to be any. I have the Textile plugin for Wordpress and like it, but really, *anything* will do. I'd like to be able to embolden, italicise, even undeline words. Creating subheadings and blockquotes within posts would be good too. Typographical niceties like smart quotes and ligatures would just be icing on the cake.
Thanks for Posterous, and I wish you every success.

Mario theme - on WINE BOTTLES
This is bloody fantastic. Full marks to whoever did this one: The Mario Brothers theme, played on wine bottles, by a remote-controlled car in an underground car park.

When did this happen?
I'm running a stock-standard version of Apple Mail. Today, I got an email that prompted Mail to show me this new line in the header: Security. I've never seen it before! Clicking on it gives me the usual about-this-certificate dialogue. Wild!

I tried to pay
Windsor Station, just before 6pm. Just in case Connex wants to call me a fare evader: the machines are closed. Wouldn't take my ticket.
