Via Nelson comes the Top Cameras on Flickr. My trusty but increasingly old Canon PowerShot A70 is in 11th place. I’m facinated that such a high percentage of the top cameras are very high end.

Guy Kawasaki with a great entry on how to name your company.

Once upon a time a bad experience meant that you told a few of your friends and they decided not to buy that product/service. In 2006 however you blog it and tell everyone that whatever they do they should stay away from Brasserie Sixty 6.

Boards.ie proves itself top notch again! I’ve had my SE k750i for ages now and I could never figure out what was going on with certain people I couldn’t reply too. I thought it was just me but a boards.ie thread on the problem gives a workaround. Fantastic!

TD Billy Kelleher was caught doing 120 kph on the Cashel bypass yesterday. Of course the media think this is front page news which is complete rubbish. A speed limit of 100 kph on a road like that is madness in the first place.
