Postcard from a hot place – Day 3
This is part three of a series of behind the scenes blog posts about the making of the latest QUT television commercials. More on driving, because that’s what you do here. (Dubai isn’t a place to stroll anywhere – it’s too hot, there are too many roadworks, fuel is too cheap.) Anyway, in Dubai, car number [...]

Postcard from a hot place – Day 2
This is part two of a series of behind the scenes blog posts about the making of the latest QUT television commercials. Shooting begins in earnest. First stop, the Dubai HQ of the engineering firm our young QUT student already works for. They’re using a brand new and highly secret welding method to build secret components for [...]

Postcard from a hot place – Day 1
This is part one of a series of behind the scenes blog posts about the making of the latest QUT television commercials. God gave man hair for two reasons. To stop him passing out after banging his head on the floor joist when doing a bit of illegal wiring under his old Queenslander. And, to prevent [...]

What’s in a name?
The hot topic over breakfast this morning was the new internet search facility, Wolfram Alpha. Discussion soon ensued around the service’s name. Next time you want someone to do a search to answer a question, are you going to ask them to ‘Wolfram Alpha’ the question? Seems a bit clumsy to me. Google [...]

It was not something that Artline took [...]

Wolfram Alpha: A new type of search engine
I’ve always loved reading reference materials, and probably always will. So if anyone out there had any doubt left in them that I’m not a total dweeb, banish those doubts now. But I’m unashamed in my love of absorbing facts, figures, diagrams and histories. Growing up, those facts came almost exclusively from the set of encyclopaedias [...]

The rant of a writer
Is there anything more annoying than the sound of fingernails screeching on a blackboard? Not much. Though, I have to admit that the ubiquitous use of the word ‘ubiquitous’ comes incredibly close. I’ve tried to ignore it – honestly I have – but every week when I open What Next that bloody ‘u’ word is there, [...]

What do you actually do?
Are we all loving Mad Men? I am. Just finished watching the 1st season on DVD. There’s a scene in one of the early episodes where a slick young account exec is having martinis with his high-powered New York City lawyer father who asks him, “So, what exactly is it you do?” This reminded me of conversations [...]

Facebook or ‘Stalkbook’?
Has the world of social media grown so big and so quickly that the rules and protocols haven’t quite caught up? What’s acceptable? What’s not? Where are the lines drawn? Well, to answer this let me pose some questions. Is it OK for your boss to ask to be your friend on Facebook? As a ‘40 something’ married [...]
