In Denmark

Most people here are as blonde as they were last time I was over, which I guess isn't a surprise. Honestly - if you like your people blonde, think about moving. Had a good meeting this afternoon, though I've been trying to juggle a couple of other issues at the same time, which has been interesting. We've been talking about support - all of those of us on 24x7 have met up, including the new guy we've hired, who'll be joining the rota once he knows more about the products we're supporting. Looks like another couple of 24x7 contracts are likely to turn up fairly soon, which is good news for the company. One of the tasks we need to do is to divvy up the Christmas period - good money, but quite a pain.

Oh yes: re-reading "Islands in the Net" by Bruce Sterling. _Not_ great literature, though interesting to see how he thought the world might go in 1988. Main point: he didn't realise how cheap bandwidth was going to be...
