Beware the wrath of Dave, poke fun at his netbook and he’ll just crassly assume you’re a spineless puppet of Apple folk because they’re naturally the only ones who are uninspired by flimsy designs. I resemble [sic] his remarks… for one thing not all Apple fans are boys ;).
This could be the greatest CD cover, ever! I don’t know why.

I don’t know how I ended up at this review site, but I was less surprised by the fact the unit they were discussing was so shamelessly ripping off the iPod (right down to the headphones), but rather the reviewer actually liked it. Were they wearing those beer glasses Bart Simpson tried on?
I’m trialling a new wider version of my blog theme, and some clearer fonts for FLOSS OS users, let me know how terrible you think the changes are :). If you can’t see the difference, you may need to hold down [SHIFT] while reloading the page. I almost made a typo and wrote [SHIFT] as something else.
By sheer co-incidence I realised this beta blog theme is the same size as ZombieSkittles without the border. Creepy!
I reverted back to the same width I first starting blogging in back in 2004, but kept the new fonts for the FLOSS folk. Call me old fashioned. Or fickle.
I spent most of today frantically packing, paying bills and buying salami for my dad for my trip back home to The Singapores, but I figured I could spare a bit of time to show you the incredibly sophisticated WebJet map my online flight booking provided. I suppose when I read the awe inspired description with a fancy service name to boot I was expecting something a little more… fancy? :)
A person from university asked me today why I like watching anime because he "[didn't] get it". Funny thing is I can’t quite explain it myself, but in this next series of posts I’m going to try.
Given I had so much work and studying to do this evening, I decided to take a break and instead of watching another adorable episode of K-On I thought I’d fix my theme here a bit. Hit [SHIFT] if you don’t see a difference ^_^.
I’m generally pretty quick to pick out internet jokes from the real thing, but this latest announcement for an OpenOfficeMouse honestly had me bamboozled: were their product, website and press release for real?
Much like my friend Frank Nora, I’m a logo nerd, so when news like this appears I pownce on it. Oh great, that failed website has stuffed up my spelling. Big news: The ANZ Bank is in the process of changing their logo.
The Adelaide Fringe poster design contest has been over for a while now, but I came up with inspiration for this billboard design as I was walking home this evening. The best part of this design is I don’t need to provide an SVG source because its so easy to recreate! Whaddya think? Huh? Huh? Isn’t it so… phisticated?
To give you an idea what it would like displayed in the real world, I did this incredibly realistic photoshop job of this Adelaide billboard photo by nikski on Flickr.
In other news, I’m assuming this Adelaide Fringe whatnot is some sort of hairdressing and barber event?
I'm Ruben Schade, welcome to my labour of love mix of tech, anime, thoughts and nonsense from Singapore and Australia. Thanks for stopping by.
I'm also on Twitter, Flickr, Google Reader and lots more places.
