The End is Nigh
Well, that about wraps up my month of daily postings here on the blog. It was fun and a bit taxing, but a good way to kickstart the year. It cleared out the old brainpipes and purged some half baked ideas I had floating around in there.
I’ll be posting regularly, I hope, but not daily. More things are hurtling down multiple pipelines toward me at breakneck speed. Not least of which is the Top-Uncling I’ll be doing with my brand new nephew. At the moment he seems to just sleep, drink and poo himself, that’s the kind of lifestyle I can get my head around.
I have foolishly signed up for some Open University courses, which start *gulp* tomorrow. One of them even has maths in it, but the other has assignments on Lastfm. Sure that’s just the internet, how hard can it be?
Thanks for all your comments and listening to me rabbiting on over the past month.

Glad to have listened to it – gibbering is quite calming, provided it’s gibbered in that lovely Irish accent.

Happy Uncle-ing! And do let us know how the classes go — the Lastfm thing sounds …interesting!

2009 is underway!
Many congrats on your new state of uncledom. I’d say you’d make a decent uncle. Terrible father, oh god, with your rages and fits and strange ideas. But a decent uncle.
Looking forward to a good year’s blogging then. Good to see it’s going strong. In ten year’s time there will only be fifty or so blogs left–the blogosphere will be a wasteland, with everybody having moved on to join some terrible online hive mind thing–but hopefully this should be one of the survivors.

You need to watch out for that Maths.
Maths takes me to an awfully dark place. Every year or so I take a wild stab at 3D programming again (I have an engine…an enginnnnneee!), a process that starts with rotating cubes and ends some awful non-time later with equasions scrawled over the walls in unidentifiable fluids. I’ve written a quaternion math library you know. Thousands of lines of code. All very tight stuff. Comments that sound well-informed. Right now I have no idea what a quaternion is.
