This just in: NZ broadband dramatically improved, says new report
Memo to new government: do please try not to screw that up.

n other news: RussellBrownNZ has been editing his own wikipedia page as well. Imposing the Microsoft hegemony on everyone ... I don't know =)
Heh. In case anyone didn't get it, RussellBrownNZ ain't me, it's Graeme.
Fair point, I suppose.
I did once make an edit, but in general that's best left to others.
So ... would anyone else care to undo the March 16 2009 edit and get me back to being born in Lower Hutt, rather than Timaru?

Our secret socialist agenda: filling the streets with wet Italians.
Wetalians.

DPF is being extremely disingenuous about the difference between what National said last year and what it says now.

@Emma
The only problem I have with it is that it makes me wish I lived in Wellington even more than usual
I'm sorry, but I need you to keep on Keeping Christchurch Weird.

It's the time and idea wasting that worries me. A bit like how various novellists I've spoken to (William Gibson being the biggest name drop I can think of) took up blogging and then gave it up because it was using up all of their novel-mojo.
And yet Neil Gaiman does it all.
But seriously, he's a freak. Most of the novelists I know find the tension between daily or weekly chatter and the long story arc very difficult. I saw it in the early PA days for Chad Taylor and Deborah Daly. I understood their withdrawal from blogging. They each had a great big plane to land at the time.
My cycles are shorter.

One of the fundmental philosophies of the new wave of post punk indies in the late 1970s and onwards ...
Simon, if you haven't grabbed it by then, I'll give you a copy of the recent BBC4 doco on Rough Trade when you come in June. I am very confident that you will love it.

I should note that my previous comment refers to the apparently completely clueless reporting of the news, rather than any tacit endorsement of copyright infringement. Post tomorrow.

Tv3 News @ 6
You're fucking kidding.

Worth referencing Steve Albini's version of all this too
You know, I'd heard of that but I'm not sure if I'd actually read it before. It's like a document of some kind of ritual abuse.
It's got worse since then.
I can barely imagine how.
