My First Blog

I'm sure all blogs have this pointless, ice-breaking, first blog just to fill some space and see what the template looks like!

This blog is just a little post it note style web log where I will be posting a few interesting messages from time to time. As Dr. Beale said, blogs have the ability of forcing us to reflect upon what we have achieved over the course of the day or week or any length of time we like. It is not something I disagree with either as I often find religion to be that reflective and soothing experience. But we'll leave that to another occasion...Maybe when I have time to speak of such things!

that's all for now...

oh yeh...nearly forgot.... I will set up the HCI blog soon...need to find a suitable name.

I'll ask Imran...he is apparently good for these sorts of things!

HCI Blog Initiated

The HCI Blog has been named and hosted or hoisted as you may like to say!

It is called TechBology like a play on the word Technology with the B coming from the word Blog....if u didn't get it!

By all means put relevant comments up onto the site or suggest some themes we can work on. The first theme I intend to work on is just general everyday objects we take for granted which show HCI at its finest! Remember, the things we dont notice are often the most perfect!

I leave you with a quote of a pious man whose lecture I was listening to the other day...

"If it were not for the perpetual nature of the birth of humans, mankind would travel the world to see the spectacle of a human being and its attributes"
