Lying cameras.

Totally staggering story about the manipulation of photographic evidence in driving offenses taken from The Newspaper.com

“The spread of photo enforcement depends upon the truism that the camera never lies. A photograph presents a record of exactly what happened, free of the human problems of bias or misrecollection. This month, however, a UK motorist was exonerated after he proved conclusively that a traffic camera photograph issued in the London Borough of Lambeth did lie”

Here is the same image displayed at different zoom levels.

Goggles

I have a set of skiing goggles & swimming goggles but who in there right mind wants a set of onion goggles? especially at £13.99 a pair! For those that must, available in Cambridge at the new store of Home Store & More in the old Beehive shopping centre.

Wordcamp UK

The proposed idea for a meeting for WordPress enthuasists seems to be picking up steam now. It seems to have a website and logo now. Proposed dates are 19 -20th July and probably in Birmingham. Head over to the website for more details.

Mobile idea

Latest gizmo I’ve discovered is a way of converting my RSS feed into a mobile version of this website. Tool created by Wirenode.

Although for self hosted WordPress users I think that Alex King’s WordPress Mobile Edition plugin which shows a mobile view of the post/page if the visitor is on a known mobile device is probably more useful.
