I love my flexible job. I just dropped one son at a job interview in Brisbane, and now I’m getting some work done at Maccas while my youngest son enjoys the playground.

I love this concept of an all-in-one phone, tablet and netbook.

This iPad keyboard/case might be worth getting. Much thinner than the current Logitech Zaggmate keyboard.

We’ve had our new iPads for two days now. Very happy. The screens are bright, clear and vibrant. We passed our old iPad 1s down to our daughter and daughter-in-law who have just started uni.

I’m thinking about getting a new keyboard - a Roland Lucina AX-09. It looks a bit dorky - though not too dorky for Jordan Rudess to play - but it has some great benefits:

it’s pretty cheap
it has good internal sounds
it has killer controllers
it works great as a small MIDI controller for the studio
it’s not too big to wear over the shoulder playing live
it works on batteries, and has a reasonable battery life

Has anyone bought or played one? Anything I should know?

For some reason the kids’ schools are closed today. Queensland’s getting a lot of rain at the moment. Happily, not as much as last year…

This is pretty mad. A hundred years ago, The Ladies’ Home Journal predicted what 2011 would be like. Some predictions are eerily close, while others are hilarious. The scanned type is a little small, but it’s worth a browse.

“Most inventors and engineers I’ve met are like me … they live in their heads. They’re almost like artists. In fact, the very best of them are artists. And artists work best alone …. I’m going to give you some advice that might be hard to take. That advice is: Work alone… Not on a committee. Not on a team.”

- Steve Wozniak, quoted in an article about the creative benefits of solitude. cf. Pablo Picasso: “Without great solitude, no serious work is possible.” (The author of the article, Susan Cain, has a new book coming out: Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking)
