The First Brighton Marathon (2010)

It was the first ever Brighton Marathon at the weekend, a special day for Brighton, well organised and blessed with some awesome sunshine.

Unlike the London one it was nice to be able to cycle around much of the course, cheering mates/mrs on whilst taking some snaps. Photos from the day are below.

Well done to all that ran it, nutters!

Sticky Bits – Graffiti for geeks

I didn’t go to SXSW this year, in fact i’ve never been, but like many others I’ve been reading about the goings on and which of the new start-ups featured are creating a lot of buzz.

One of those start-ups that I caught my attention among the buzz was Sticky Bits.

Sticky Bits is a new startup. It’s a way of digitally tagging real world objects, kind of like graffiti for geeks only more socially acceptable.

I wrote this post at work, you can read the rest here.

Snowboarding in Mayrhofen 2010

I went snowboarding in Mayrhofen (Austria) last week. I wanted to go back to Austria after doing a season in St Anton before uni, which was just an amazing 6 months.

I’d probably have to say that I had one of the best ski holidays that i’ve ever been on. We booked with Crystal Ski, the snow was great, resort had great nightlife, a huge ski area, friendly people and amazing value for money. What more can you ask for!

We were also lucky enough that our trip conincided with Oakley’s Job Vid competition.

Here’s some of my pics from the break.
