Working at home today, and I have been sitting in front of this computer for far too long. I think it’s time I went to the gym. I haven’t been for weeks. The whole gym buddy thing is falling apart. Help!
Tracking The World
I wonder how the launch of Google Analytics will impact the other companies in the space? And what’s more, who knows what’s next. Nice, simple-to-use interface and as it’s tied in with their advertising programs, it could be very useful to some people. It certainly saves you from having to explain multiple systems to people. Perhaps I’ll sign up.

Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is quite cool. I often think there would be parts of my memory that it would be very convenient to erase. There are always things that we wish we had never done or said. If it’s impossible to undo those things in life, it might be quite good to forget we ever did it. And Jim Carey is quite good at it.

1700 Tracks And Counting
How much music do I own? I have spent several days getting more of my music into my MP3 player. There are 1700+ tracks, and I still seem to have a stack of CDs around. So, anyway, the plan is to store the CDs away and only use the digital music version. It’s been an interesting task so far, but I don’t want to sit here for days doing it! Still, I’d forgotten how much I had, and I am hearing things I haven’t heard for ages. It’s quite interesting (to me), really.

Blog Madness
Well, it’s been a while. Tonight I have spent a few hours building and rebuilding this site, trying to get various parts of my Movable Type installation to work. I switched to the default templates for a few hours, thinking that this might make things easier, but, in hindsight, that was a very bad idea. When I switched to the default templates, a good selection of my settings was removed (like the way I name the archives). So, I then spent another hour or so trying out WordPress – which was very impressive and fast – but I don’t know if I have the energy to switch. I shall have to see how I feel tomorrow!

Tea for two at the Ritz is fun, and Regent Street lights are better than last year. If you’re following Listen To Musak, you’d be wise to check out the Flickr stream occasionally, as pictures can say a thousand words and, right now, I don’t have time for a thousand words.

Gay Life Is More Fun: Official
After posting a couple of days worth of Flick pictures from Oslo I came across the excellent Flickr Tag Fight via the Flock vs Firefox fight. Well, there was an obvious fight that I couldn’t find so I went and tried gay vs straight and lo, look how much more exciting gay life looks! You can go and see for yourself at gay vs straight flickr tag fight.

Oslo Doesn’t Look Like This For Me
Still in Oslo and, clearly, not in the right part (or perhaps I should be here at a different time of year). I do love this city, and I’ve always stayed at great hotels here, including the Scandic Edderkoppen where I am now. If you’ve never been, get yourself across to Norway at some point – it’s a beautiful country. Shame I have to leave today (such a short trip), but check out this photo set for more great views of this city.

I Am In Oslo
Frogner Park #2, originally uploaded by gisleh.
I have come to Oslo – again (or here and here) – on business. According to Flickr, there are 14,366 photos tagged Oslo in their system. This is one of my favourites, and these are the most interesting. I need to find something unusual to snap here!

Audience Up
According to the press, ‘BBC London 94.9FM has recorded its second-highest audience figures ever, with 561,000 tuning in every week, according to the latest RAJAR figures covering July to September’. As I have mentioned several times, I love BBC London right now. It was sad when Danny Baker left – his was one of the most innovative morning shows – but JoAnne Good and the team have been excellent. I am very worried about Jono Coleman, as I am not very keen on him as a broadcaster, but I guess we’ll just have to see what the rest of the year brings.
