Wifi hotspots

Add comment October 12th, 2007

There’s just not enough wifi hotspots in Canberra that are either free or cheap. As a result we’ve got very little that’s available for ‘ordinary people’ (the plebs) to have access to. There’s a huge Westfield Shopping Centre here with a lot of traffic that simply doesn’t have any wifi hotspots!

I know this is standard around Australia, and even New Zealand. However, it’s not something I’m happy about, considering how much I want to use it myself - like right now, when I don’t have any internet at home.

Idiot drivers

Add comment October 12th, 2007

Driving to work this morning I was witness to two near-accidents, with both of them involving idiots doing exactly the same thing.

Imagine you’re on a three-lane road, and you’ve got a car on the left and a car on the right, and they both want to inhabit the middle lane. At the same time. And they’re both determined to do it, come what may.

It’s like a strange game of chicken, where someone has to veer off first or there’ll be… trouble. Luckily someone did.
