Simon Tatham’s Portable Puzzle Collection

There was no free database of UK postcode locations, but now there are two attempts to create such a thing - one if you have a GPS device, and one if you don’t.

Yet more before/after photoshop jobs - click on Portfolio, Agree, Before/After, then for any photo click on the “Click to see before” link.

Recently listened

Tuesday, November 21st, 2006

Just to mention that I’ve added a “recently listened” bit on the sidebar on the main page. (RSS consumers, click on the link to see the front page in its full glory!)

This is assembled by last.fm, a rather nifty online radio service that notes what you listen to and can then recommend new tracks and artists, or let you listen to other people’s choices. It also grabs what I listen to at home via iTunes or the fantastic Amarok.

It will no doubt be a bit out of date, but I don’t imagine anyone will know or care :-)
