A great interview with Will Smith from 2002, just after the release of Ali. On approaching tasks: You don’t set out to build a wall. You don’t say, “I’m going to build the biggest, baddest, greatest wall that’s every been built.” You don’t start there. You say, “I’m going to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid.” You...

Own a Mac or iPhone/iPod Touch? Splash out on one of the great indie apps on offer tomorrow, Wednesday 20th, and all proceeds will go towards helping the people of Haiti. Some brilliant software for a very worthwhile cause. I’ll be treating myself! A big ‘hat’s off’ to Garrett for his work on this. Update: $143,872 raised. Awesome.

Site Updates
This morning I gave TMMD a slight facelift, updating some of the HTML 5, adding support for tags and notes and switching to permalinks over day-pages now I’m not posting as regularly. The theme is pretty fully featured now and I’m happy with how it’s evolved. Question is, would anyone like to use it themselves? I’d be happy to fix it up in IE and make it available on the...

I’m a very lucky guy. I’m happy; I have some amazing friends, a good education, an idea of what I want to do with my life and the opportunity to make it happen. I’m healthy; I love sport and staying active, I’ve never broken a bone, never had an operation, I don’t have any kind of prolonged illness. I have everything I need and much of what I want; my family is well...
