Great news The Delays are touring again this autumn – dates here. Hopefully we’ll see another album out soon as well.
In addition to that I checked out a recent Daytrotter session by a group called Copeland. It isn’t heard to imagine this as The Delays in a chilled out mood. worth checking out the session at http://www.daytrotter.com/dt/copeland-involving-us-in-their-autumn-concert/20030783-3738097.html

We picked this video up through a friend (which has most definitely gone viral). Given my little brother’s forth coming wedding, I think there is a challenge for him to rival this video:

With WebUI’s getting more like thick applications as a result of the increasing adoption and sophistication of AJAX use I came across a website that does a good job of pulling together AJAX lessons, examples and tips tricks called www.ajaxlessons.com. Its a link’d recommedn adding to any web developers list of dev resources.

New Album Out September 8
Epic Records is proud to announce the September 8th release of Howie Day’s highly anticipated third studio album, SOUND THE ALARM. It’s been close to six years since the singer-songwriter released his last album Stop All The World Now which spawned the massive # 1 hit single, “Collide” and went on to sell over 1 million copies worldwide. The album is a stunning collection of the kind of emotionally resonant, melody-minded pop-rock gems that have earned Day a legion of devoted fans over the past 10 years.

Having had a brief business trip to Palo Alto – I had a couple of hours with colleagues in San Fransisco itself. I managed to snag a few snaps before enduring a return flight with United.
Weather as you can see wasn’t great in the city itself although down the coast in Palo alto the weather was lovely. Apparently every July/August the city and coastal areas suffer from regularly fog that can last all day.

More of my photography has been published. This time as part of the support to the Basingstoke Tappers I did some photography at their Summer Show. The photos have then been used by a local paper (Basingstoke Gazette) who published an article about the show. The annoying thing is that they have assumed copyright on the photos given to them for the article and are now trying to sell them depriving a not for profit oranisation of income and failing to accredit the rights to the photos correctly.
