  1. Johann Hari: A colder, crueller country – for no gain - Johann Hari, Commentators - The Independent

    I’ve just been trying to avoid the news, pretend it’s not happening. I was lured into reading this. Fuckers.

  2. Movies, Downloads, Blu Ray, DVDs, Cinema & TV Listings | Find Any Film

    Alerts for when films you want to see appear in the formats you want. Good idea but ugly, confusing, unintuitive, Lottery-funded. Needs a slap with the Web 2.0 stick.

    @JKneale Yeah, weird that 1980s Billy Bragg doesn't exist on Spotify.

    Don't think I'd heard The Communards' 'Breadline Britain' before. VG, gold star. http://open.spotify.com/track/129UAEIqFiG5uYKcBsnakT *sigh*

    @Zoonie I reckon losing 30%/whatever to Apple would be made up for in volume of people who'd use the store but wouldn't use other methods.

    @FindAnyFilm Thanks. The site is confusing. Why do I have to enter my details for every film I want to be alerted about? @suegyford @jopkins

    @Zoonie Er, people already make loads and loads of apps for Macs, they're just not sold through an app store.
