Oh look, spammers.

No, you can't have one.

Further places where you'll not be able to have one:

Empire Rocketry Research Group. (Showing off. randomly updated.)

Devops malarkey. (Technical weblog about, er devops, CI/CD, automation, et al)

He goes into his courtyard and does not see his people. No blame.

I have thought too hard about the words I wish to use, so now they are shny and smooth and hold no interest.

Things to put in your face

Assuming the following:

a) You're in London.
b) It's a Sunday.
c) You quite fancy a roast lunch.

Then this site is probably a handy place to start looking.

As the veneer of technology starts to fade

Weblog things break far too easily.

A quick Google for the JH-R returns the remains of two different photo-weblog things. Basically excuses to point shonky phonecams at interesting things and display them to a pile of search engines with titles that are either pretentious or bad puns. The NME of the eighties has a lot to answer for.

In both cases, the cardboard-and-string technology behind them broke in tiresome ways that weren't worth fixing. (MT being a bit of a lash-up and Sony-Ericsson phones having a built-in photblogging app that was entirely opaque)

As it happens, the one site will point you at a pile of photos taken with a Lomo LC-A, which was what I was after in the first place. However, after a bit of practice it turns out that you can get rather good pictures from a Lomo, which rather defeats the object. And in the meantime, phonecams have become too good and no longer emit atmospheric and impressionistic images.
