I’m not generally a WordPress fan (it gets far too much hype), but this is looking very, very interesting – I’ve long been searching for a decent mini-social network platform and this could well be it.

I assume that everyone reading this has probably seen the ‘Radiohead’s Nude played by old computer bits’ video already (although I’ve embedded it below just in case), but the ever-interesting Creative Review blog have just posted a nice little interview with its creator, James Houston.

Wi-Fi on the iPhone. Frequently asked questions.
“O2 has partnered with The Cloud to provide you with unlimited access to over 7500 public Wi-Fi hotspots across the UK on your iPhone. Excessive usage policy applies.
From 11 July, you will also get access to 2000 Wi-Fi hotspots from BT Openzone.“
Very nice – I’ve only managed to use ‘The Cloud’ once in the last 6 months of iPhone ownership, so having free BT Openzone access is a nice bonus.

…and a free/£99 upgrade to existing O2 iPhone customers, which is a pretty great deal all round. Didn’t really expect to get a free new 3G iPhone out of this keynote…

Finally a decent Mac Subversion client – I’ve been using it for the past couple of days and it seems to be really nice.

I find it very frustrating that Adobe think they know best when it comes to creating interfaces, when they quite obviously don’t. Is it too much to ask to have native window controls?

“I don’t really have a good fix for this one. I ran out of ideas, so no text expandability. But I feel really bad about that, so the guilt makes up for it, right? Right?”
Exactly my thinking when it comes to html/css – have a good go at making it work in the ideal, totally-semantic-markup + no javascript requirement + text-expandable way but sometimes it’s just not pragmatic. Of course, if your html is well written you can always turn off css to get at the content, but that’s hardly a good solution… oh the guilt.
