Workspace lurve

In this post, I thought I'd highlight the things that I meet with everyday in my own area of study, work and play:

You probably wanna click to see it bigger..

1. This is my guard lion which, for the moment, is suspended from a lanyard given to my aunt on her trip to Canada. Every desk should have one.

2. Mail and stuff of interest all held in a neat letter separator thing. A couple of things you'll find there are  WH Smith vouchers to be redeemed, a Blue Jays decal and the Sunday Times' Magazine profile on Lady Gaga. And a cable for something.

3. My notebook. It's almost never used daily but I find it useful to note down photography shoots which make up most of my daily thoughts. Note how it's never useful stuff, like chemical symbols for example.

4. My computer of choice (and a damn fine one too); Apple MacBook. I am forever using this when I'm bored or when I want to talk to friends on the internet and it's not that bad at it. Laptops are far more superior in my humble opinion.

5. Coffee. It's a must. This tumbler however was designed by Tri-costal Designs and I love it's typographic design.

6. BlackBerry and iPod. They're great buddies and surprisingly still going strong after years of abuse.

7. Notepads, stickynotes and other bits and bobs. Mainly used to keep notes to myself and for people to give me notes too. I'm such a traditionalist.

8. Various pens of various colours. I looooove my pens particularly the red one.

9. GO JAYS!

Apple are the evil one's now!

I've been using Apple computers for nearly a year now and I like how they make their products even if they are expensive for standard computers, let's say I love OS X so much that it's worth the couple hundred more. Yeah, that works!


Anyway, they have been getting bad press lately, no. Going crazy when their prototype was 'stolen' to the point of confusing nearly everyone who ever knew about it. I don't even know if the guy's office was raided or what.. Is it legal? So many bloody questions that we will never find the answer to. Then we have the whole iPad thing. After the question that Jobs had answered that claimed that Android's users are all sex addicts who heart porn or something. Also, the whole lack of flash on the iPad for Jobs' belief in protecting children from Flash's numerous porn sites and what have you.


Why do I get the feeling that Apple along with it's slightly mad CEO are slowly going to escape consumer interest with their silly plans based on personal beliefs resulting in one very useless device. Microsoft, you are forgiven. For now.
