I was looking for a new domain name (for a secret project!?!) and settled on notgivenlightly.com, which fits the theme of the site and is a nice allusion to that classic Chris Knox tune of the same name. The point of this post though is to exclaim that who knew Frente had covered it!? When I Googled "not given lightly" they came up more often than any Chris Knox references.
For my Nth American readers...if you like a your singer song writers to be lo-fi, edgy, with a unique vocal style, and with solid credentials in 70's punk rock then you could do worse than check out Chris Knox...you can find him on Amazon and Last.fm.

I wanted to add a prominent link to Climatecrisis.net from the top right corner of my blog, so I had a mate create the little banner you can see there now (RSS readers click through). It’s a tiny contribution to progressing public consciousness about climate change, but if you want to do the same you can…
Just copy and paste this code into your site to display the banner in the top right corner of your site:
This code will just float the banner into position and shouldn’t mess with anything else.
If you have a really busy site you might consider hosting the image yourself. Just right click and save the image from my site, upload it to your server and update the code to reflect the new location of the image.
UPDATE: If you do use this badge drop me a comment.

Here's a New Zealand company doing very cool things in the way of interactive applications for the Ski industry. They're getting all sorts of kudos for their work but I havn't heard the local media talking about them much at all...which is odd considering

We had Luke from Epic out for a Friday afternoon beer tasting week before last...bloody good stuff it is too. Luke was telling us about his mission to get Epic on Diggnation so I was stoked to to catch the June 7th episode this morning and sure enough there's Kevin and Alex drinking Epic.
Luke had to call in all sorts of favors to fly a six pack up to SF and have it delivered right to the Digg HQ, all the while hoping it didn't get consumed in transit. I figure that deserves a mention...
