It's all just a little bit of history repeating…

Some time ago, someone infected me with a “What’s in your googlebar history” meme and I figured I’d share the history at the end of every month in 2006. As a result, here’s my googlebar history for this month.

  • freezing point of mercury
  • lca
  • spaghetti house
  • python magic homepage
  • python magic
  • postgresql time delta
  • tito's peruvian restaurant
  • rockbox

Spine tingling guitar goodness…

I was reminded today about just how spine-tinglingly good some close-mic guitar work really is, such as in “Wish you were here” by Pink Floyd or “Perfect Love” by Marc Cohn, and so I decided to share this with you all. Make time to go and listen to a piece of music which gives you that good shivering down your back because let’s face it—you deserve that joy, right now.

La rumba tradicional…

…en un ambiente agradable y tranquilo pensando en gente adulta como usted.

Last night I went to Tito’s Peruvian Restaurant for dinner with Lesley and had a very very nice meal. I had Tamal de Cerdo to start (billed as a traditional white corn based dish, cooked with flavouring chillies, filled with pork, boiled egg, olives and covered cooked in banana leaves, served with a creole salsa) and Escabeche de pescado (billed as a traditional coastal dish, based in onions and spices, this version made with fish and served with rice and boiled sweet potato) which was really rather yum indeed.

All in all, I can seriously recommend this restaurant if you’re ever near London Bridge (in London, obviously).

Announcing the release of v1.0.0 of libgfshare

I am proud to announce the first release of my secret-sharing library (libgfshare). This library will eventually go on to be used in my planned fuse filesystem for secret-sharing.

The library has been tested on Ubuntu (i386, amd64), Debian (i386), FreeBSD (i386) and OSX/PowerPC. If you discover a problem with it, please do contact me ASAP so I can put out a fixed version.

If you wish to package it for a linux distribution (or anything else I s’pose) then please go ahead, but let me know so I can link them on the software page for the library.
