I'm experimenting with Technorati. Recently I've been using it quite a bit to search for breaking 'news' from the blogosphere and I thought "hey, why not give tags a go?" (I was also trying to avoid completing my online CV - but at least I've made a start now!)

Things I'd like to be included in Aspire*:

Today I also:

- Applied for an Abbey e-savings account. Always a daunting feeling.
- Listened to Loney - Akon... in Dutch. Courtesy of Pingu. Much better than the English version, precisely because you can't understand the stupid lyrics.

Things I'd like to be included in Aspire*:
- Geek page 3 girls
- Dilbert
- Geek TV Guide
- Advice columns done by geeks for stupid people written in a patronising and mocking tone
- Free gifts!
