In case the moderators of comments on articles at the DailyMail News disapprove of my opinion, here is what I have to say about the £250,000 Dog House: Sounds like someone trying to get around council bylaws regarding extensions. Rather than having an extra lounge room, they've decided to call it the 'dog house'. Trust... Continue Reading →
Verbal Nourishment
After a recent hospital visit shook me awake, I'm convinced it's time to tweak my eating habits. Whilst I remember my teenage were filled with outdoor adventures and wholesome meals like Spaghetti Bolognese, Macaroni Cheese, and Shepherd's Pie, all lovingly prepared by my family, I am now eating less appealingly. Even my after-school snacks in... Continue Reading →
Top 10 Influential Songs
Like many entrepreneurial types, I slide easily into despondency when things don’t pan out as hoped, and self-pity can creep in fast. I don’t smoke or drink much, so music has become my chosen distraction from the harder parts of the day. When I play these tracks, I feel energised and focused - typing faster,... Continue Reading →
Unification
There would not be many presidents of the USA that would inspire the voters, singers, artists and writers to collaborate and participate in a video clip that incorporates the words used in Barack Obama's opening speech made straight after winning his election. This amazingly produced song-clip not only tells us that the general population have... Continue Reading →
3 Ways for the Shy to Meet & Greet
Your mission , should you wish to accept, is relatively simple. Yet I have devised 3 stages to allow the shy to also participate. Stage 1. Smile at someone new today. Maybe just nod. Men, tip your hat. Ladies, your smile will be enough for any man! Stage 2. Say Hello, loud & proud, so... Continue Reading →
Generation Gap
I heard an interesting quote today from a female in her 20's. "We're not stupid, we just don't produce. We are generation-Z." It took me a minute to comprehend what she might have meant by this, and came to this conclusion: The current generation of younglings are too young to breed, therefore are not adding...

Amazing Canon Accessories
Quite by accident I went hunting on Amazon for Canon parts. Here's what I found that I really really really really really want!! Understanding the Canon Speedlite 580EX / 430EX As an owner of the 580EXii, I am often amazed by the features that are so difficult to draw out of it. It allows the... Continue Reading →
Talking to Random Train People about Photography
Whilst traveling the train this evening, some guy got on at one station. He was complete with camera and tripod. I noticed his little camera bag also had a pencil and lined pad. I presumed he'd spent the day photographing trains, but he could have come from anywhere along the line. Who knows what he... Continue Reading →
Apple iPod Touch Wish List
Without a doubt, the latest range of Apple products on the market have given us two lightweight yet graphic-filled devices. I am talking 'bout the iPhone and Touch. The popularity of both totally amazes me, though not because I don't like them, far from it -- I know of many people who have either purchased... Continue Reading →

Darren Rowse is a fellow Australian blogger who began blogging in 2002, and is best known for his blog ProBlogger.net. I have been reading his articles since 2004.

First Time Meeting Adelaide Bloggers
I finally made it to my FIRST MeetUp. The Adelaide Bloggers took over the back room at a local restaurant, one which I've seen a few thousand times from the passenger-seat of a car and bus. But this was the first time we'd stepped inside the doors, let alone looked in the window. I walked... Continue Reading →
Owning an Apple Touch
Finally got me a new fancy Apple iPOD Touch, the iTouch. I got the t-shirt awhile ago, and it took me 6 weeks to squirrel away the funds for the real thing. Around 5.00am yesterday morning I finally got it all worked out, all the amazing functions, attributes, finger-controls, and particularly, that iTunes is only... Continue Reading →
