I drove out of my way on the way to work to get this photo :-) (ok it was at the end of a street that I drive past, so not that dramatically out of my way) I saw it on Saturday and was still having a giggle about it 2 days later. One of the more clever things I have seen in a long time. (Or perhaps I just need to get out more)

A great use of a Stencil and whilst I am sure it has been done before I don’t think I have seen it done so well.

This is on the Corner of Stanley Street and Orrong Road Elsternwick.

Look at the bigger version to see everything clearly. (but I might stop passed on another occasion and get a better photo)

Oh yeah and try and get the song out of your head now!

5 ways to tell if you are/not worthy of being t-stalked.

Not sure if this is a term… but it is now :-) T-Stalked/T-Stalking is the art/act of stalking someone via twitter.

As requested by a follower on Twitter here are 5 ways to tell if you are worthy of being t-stalked.

Please add more via the comments and I will edit this to include the best if people ever actually comment on my blog.

  1. You supply GPS coords on most of your posts (Ok thats me)
  2. You advertised how many followers you have everytime you go up one hundred (you know who you are :-))
  3. You have a really sexy photo as your icon and it is what you look like IRL
  4. You follow everyone else and drive out of your way to say hello even if they live in Moscow
  5. Your username is your pin number and your blog url is your account number.

and of course the not worthy list as well….

  1. You have a sexy photo and don’t look it.
  2. Your user name is I_canz_havz_bad_hygiene
  3. You are know for stalking people in real life
  4. Your name is John Howard and your tag line is… please be my friend
  5. You never enter comments on Wolf’s Blog!

I made the defrag list again :-)

Defrag at the Australian IT

(I put in the number 7 comment)

Chris Dunn and Pam Jensen, who are believed to be among the first couples to meet on the internet, have celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary. Here are the 10 most appropriate ways for an internet couple to mark the occasion.

10. A bunch of virtual roses, a virtual drink on Facebook and listening to the same online radio station while living half a world away, while pretending to dance with a person that doesn’t exist.

9. 25 years … time for a reboot.

8. Arrange a private party, have the invitations intercepted and broadcast on Facebook then deal with the 500 gate-crashers.

7. Put down the acoustic coupler and get out and meet some other people.

6. They should retire to the bedroom, open their gateways, synchronise their DNSs and create some subdomains.

5. They log on to Second Life and renew their vows.

4. Changing from serial monogamy to broadband.

3. Fire up two old IBM PCjrs, set the modems to 240K, and have a reaaaaaaally slow conversation.

2. He hacks Interflora and fills the house with flowers; she hacks P&O and gives him two cruise tickets.

1. They could meet in real life for the first time.

Dumbest Phone message…(and yes I should have known better!)

Try phoning a Domino’s store out of hours… and this what you get.

Thanks for calling Domino’s Pizza
Unfortunately our store is closed
Please call again and ask our staff for our opening and closing times.

When do I call again???? and how do I get the opening hours with out calling you to get the message… I may spend the rest of the day hitting redial just to get the opening and closing hours….

The reason for the call was to cancel an order which I tried placing on the internet at 11 last night. When the order finally went through I admit I did not see the little AM text instead of the PM text, which left me thinking the pizza would arrive at 11:45pm (ie in 45 min), so when the system had the nice icon saying your pizza is being made, it wasn’t! The store was closed, the ovens were turned off, the staff at home tucked up in bed and the pizza was not going to be made for 12 friking hours.

Seriously that is bad design. You don’t stick a big icon saying your pizza is being made, when it is not.

Do they really think that if someone tried to order a pizza that if it is going to take more than say 1 hour to get to you a warning box would come up saying hey that food you want is not going to be ready till sometime tomorrow!

How hard can that be….

Update…

I did manage to get through on the phone to cancel the order, had to wait until 11am before the phone their phone was working.  The poor man at the end of the line had no idea how to cancel the order and give me a refund.  Now what is with that!  Yikes, looks like training is an issue for the 16y/olds as well.

Will let you know if the refund ever comes through, but am not holding out much hope given how bad the experience has been so far.

I sent a complaint via through the feedback form last night.. still nothing… but at least I am now getting their junk mail as of this afternoon.
