About Me

I’m a 30 something Irish guy that works in the IT business. Inside the trade I’m interested in Linux, Internet technologies and mobile hardware and services. Outside, I enjoy a good book, a nice beer and decent game of rugby……

P.S. This is a personal blog, and while I do have a professional involvement in a lot of the technical topics I mention in some of my posts, they do not reflect company policy or ethos.

New York Picture post…

I’m a total travel whore. One of the reasons I took my last job was because they asked me did I have a problem with business travel :) …. Unfortunately, they then stuck me in a sleepy south western German town for a month of “training”. It did get better. I’ve been up and down the west coast of the US, India, north Africa and all over Europe.

I usually remember to take a digital camera, but on my last trip, 24 hours in New York (I was in Washington DC too, but all I saw there was the inside of a conference room :( ), I just brought my phone. The Sony Ericsson k750i has a 2MP auto-focus camera, so the pictures actually came out pretty good! I stayed in the Hotel Pennsylvania (the locals call it the Hotel Penitentiary). The website makes it look great, but it isn’t. I had the usual New York hotel view out my window…. across an alley and into someone else’s room :-( The most unusual and unexpected sight while there was one of OCC’s custom bikes, the I-Robot bike, on display outside a shop near Macy’s.

I’ve got some cool pictures of India & Seattle that I’ll try to get around to posting over the next few days.
