Songbird is an music player for your ‘puter a bit like iTunes, Amarok, or Winamp. It is in alpha so only for the adventurous, but I dig the farting bird mascot and the beautiful website and design of the app.

Stuff in general
Some notes from benland today:
- disassociated.com/ has been redesigned and is looking good as always;
- My new laptop battery arrived and unlike the last one actually appears to work;
- There’s a link to a short demo of the new Lotus Notes client called “Hannover” at Vowe;
- Charlie Bird watching his favourite movie, ‘Best in Show’:

- I’m loving Flock and may even post a wee blog about my favourite bits;
- bucketFountain gets a step closer to being overhauled as there is now a development version of the site in Drupal out there, and it will one day take over from this site.

Flickr
After playing around with Flock I finally got a flickr account. I thought they were totally spak but it’s kinda fun. Great business model too. You get sucked in, blow your 20 meg limit in one day and then you go, “ah screw it, I’ll pay $25 US and go pro”. Clever buggers.

Motherflocker
I read about the browser Flock some time ago. I remember at the time that Flock was dismissed by someone as a ‘Firefox extension’, as Flock is based on Firefox. It is a self proclaimed web 2.0 browser. Maybe I have gone soft in the head, but I wanted to see what it was like for myself.

It does have a close button on each tab too…

Four years
Four years of bucketFountain – I’m amazed! It’s been a busy four years I guess… Webstock was great and all of the feedback has been really good, I think that people enjoyed it and learnt lots. I’m looking forward to debriefing with the rest of the organising team as many lessons were learned.

Quick progress report on Webstock
Final Day tomorrow and I don’t want it to end. I have met so many amazing people and I can’t get over how cool they all are. Brekkie with Joel tomorrow at 7:15am. I’ve good mind to complain to the organisers that that 7:15am for breakfast is the height of just-too-muchery.


The Bird has been a little neglected this week – but luckily his grandparents on his mothers side have been popping in to keep him company in the evenings.
