Relax, Me?

Vacations do weird things to you. I've already caught myself writing JavaScript (mostly using Prototype), scoping out GPS devices (got my eye on a Foretrex 201, which seems to be adequate for the uses I envisage for it), replying to vendor e-mails (I do so hate it when they just don't know when to back off) and, of all things, listening to podcasts...

It turns out that I had downloaded the Gilmore Gang and a set of files from "IT Conversations" (interviews with Joel Spolsky and Bruce Schneier, among others) when I played around with 4.9 a few weeks back, and I found them on my this morning.

I don't, however, anticipate turning any of those into a habit, except for the GPS thing - the application I'm writing is a simple photo tagger (a first step towards what I described on my Ruby , but not actually using Rails) - and besides, adding, well, tags, I am jumping into the geotagging bandwagon and ensuring I can geotag photos by tying it in with Maps in the simplest possible way.

On another front, if you've kept track of my SyncML, phone OTA syncing and WBXML mini-rants, you'd be delighted to know that there are now simple bindings for libwbxml - which might be just the thing for bootstrapping your own SyncML development.

Update: And, just after posting this, CNN has begun harping on about more incidents in London (the idiot with the mike is now speculating "what next? could it be a chemical attack this time? it wasn't last time" - could you be any more irresponsible as a reporter?)... pfig is fine, time to figure out where everyone else is...
