(Picture of the(my) day: above is of Stephen and Mark, a dad and son duo from Hungary playing football on the beach about 200 yards out from dry land. Fantabulously shallow water.) Describing what sports tracker can do with photos to others new to the world of geo tagging elicits intrigue and amazement. However, since [...]
I’m posting this from the n82 again as the n800 is persistant that it will not use the n82 as a modem. I thought it was the same problem i experienced the other day but after every combination of settings, perhaps it is just the network preventing it. Plans are so far to spend a [...]
So, my visa card keeps saying invalid transaction. I have no idea how much is left and if i’ll have enough to book several days accomodation in advance. On the plus side, this is the funkiest most brill airport ever. No immigration bit, no walls, no glass, just open air with the breeze and the [...]
Since ShoZu is taking the liberty of posting on mynokiablog without my saying so, I might as well write something myself. I’m at KL terminal 1 airport lounge heading off to Bangkok, then to Koh Samui. Total of about 5 hours travelling. For those who don’t know, it’s a bit like travelling to Glasgow from [...]
Off to the airport again in a few hours, this time to Koh Samui (via Bangkok) So earlier today, I found my way to the Menara tower, the 4th tallest tower in the world, so it was easy enough without any bearing or knowledge of the area to find it. Just keep heading in the [...]
(Click to enlarge) Hey guys, I’m inside the Menora tower’s Internet Cafe (Receptionist told me there’s no such thing in the whoole of Malaysia) posting this, as last night’s sports tracker upload went wrong. I spent some time selecting which photos to upload, deleting the ones I didn’t only to find out after a call [...]
Short as the time spent with Devin was, we still managed to have a fab time night touring Singapore, sneaking in to a closed theatre (name escapes me…oh..Esplanade?), getting lost in the labyrinth that was the car par and of course, the meal with the erratic/ecclectic playlist of music and belly dancer. Spirts tracker did [...]

This is the second time I have to write this post. Hey guys, I arrived in Singapore at 7pm. Flight was great, I slept through most of it and what I was awake for was extremely pleasant. Video on Demand plus one quite brilliant steward, Nixon, who not only paid extra attention to my group [...]
Jan exams are over! Hooray! The relief after one set of examinations have finished is phenominal. Now to focus completely on Urbanista. Two train rides on and I’m now at Heathrow, waiting to depart and meet Devin in Singapore. Check in security was a bit funny. They confiscated my small insect repellant I had just [...]
I haven’t even got half way through looking at my notes for my final exam yet, so I’m rushing this post out. Everything’s all set, devices all charged and packed into one of the N82 boxes: It may look a mess, but they’re all resting at their designated positions (keyboards top left, proporta charger top [...]
This post is being written on the N800 via SU-W8 keyboard. Now I’ve had another SU-W8 for a year and my gripes are still the same: There’s sufficient width to acommodate a real QWERTY keyboard but instead the top line is fused with both the numbers/letters/symbols. I know there’s a battery there and it is [...]
Taking a break from even more revision, just a little update. Yesterday’s update made me aware of a fun little application called Shozu, after recommendations from both Vlad and Ryan (Thanks Guys!). Man, did I feel like I’ve been out of a loop! Like, if the earth’s orbit was the loop, I was out of [...]

Devin Balentina’s already begun his Urbanista journey, and using Sports Tracker’s quite spy-like features , you can track his travels along with the Nseries Widget, available here for your facebook/iGoogle home page/blogger blog etc. as well as viewing photos he’s been taking. If you want to see more of the journey, you can visit the [...]
Belated Happy New Year folks – like the weather I’ve been snowed in but with piles upon piles of work. Rest assured that blogging will still continue in 2008. This morning I was greeted with a text to confirm the destinations of my part of the Nseries Urbanista Diaries project. In order of appearance at [...]
