So we’ve had quite a few computers stolen here at Dare. Including mine. Fu****s! The good thing is that I store everything I do online or on an external harddrive, so nothing was lost.

I have been without my big machine for a couple of days now and a strange thing has happened. I am not a desk junkie anymore. I have two laptops - a Macbook at home and an Asus Eee that I use at work and on the train. It a very very small Linux based computer, it is absolutely fine for web shit and email. I plugged my old Mac keyboard in and it works a treat.

Funny - all of a sudden work doesn’t feel like work anymore if you don’t have a big screen in front of you and a stationary machine that ties you to a desk.

A week ago I found myself sitting at the same table as Chip Kidd (he’s featured in this month’s Eye magazine). You can see him at the very end of the table wearing his trademark glasses. I read his excellent novel “The Cheese Monkeys”. Had a little chat with him. A very nice man indeed. I also nicked the cartoon he drew on the paper table cloth, but forgot to ask him to sign it…
