Crickson's electric eye

Originally from the UK, I am currently living with Spiderbaby in the sub-arctic city of Umeå in the north of Sweden.

Currently I am working part-time on a research project at Norrlands universitetssjukhus and being a stay-at-home dad. At least until the snow clears, then I'll be a pushing-a-pram-around-Nydala-lake dad. In addition I am trying to make my photography hobby pay by making some of my images available to buy from instacanv.as or from me directly.

Interesting things I read recently:

If the London Underground network at rush-hour were a city, it would be the fourth-largest in the UK.

"If someone can work out how to hook up a chocolate bar into a cell phone, that'd be pretty good, because there's about 35 times the energy density in a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk [than cellphone batteries]". Simon Segars, ARM

I am Pavlovs_dog on PSN and would be happy to link up with PS3-owning mobloggers : )

Too Much Information: The first album I ever bought was the Fraggle Rock soundtrack. Pretty cool, eh? I was only 16 : )

The Umeå smile/heart/thing

This is the city's symbol for the 'city of culture' thing. Better than the London 2012 logo I suppose...

One last thing...

(viewed 780 times)
Was nearly arrested taking this shot! It was on private land. In retrospect I suppose that's obvious, but there were no signs to indicate it, or that photography was forbidden, and it's not as if I had to jump a fence to get in... Some security guards just take their jobs too seriously...

Twitter notification problems

(viewed 992 times)
I don't usually have too many problems with moblog, but has anyone else noticed that the notification of posting to Twitter has stopped? I found the feature quite useful.

Am I the only one? Is it something Twitter has changed? Any advice?
