I’ve been a busy bee over the past couple of months with lots of interesting things happening so unfortunatly I haven’t had a chance, until now, to update Jaxz. I’ve been working on some very interesting projects (both through lightbox and on a freelance basis), some of which i’ve listed below…

Freelance
On a freelance basis i’ve been working closely with Daft.ie on the redesign of a new website. I have also been working with a really great bunch of guys down in Sligo on a very interesting project with an extremely tricky navigation structure!
Susie Homemaker!
There are also some interesting times ahead with Lightbox but more on that later! My biggest news is that after this weekend I will no longer be a resident of Dublin! I’ve recently become a homeowner and the renovation of the house has been keeping me busy. I’ve become a dab hand at DIY and have had some interesting house adventures with my Dad. Although I never, ever, ever want to install a stove or see a chimney flue ever again!
Gadgets
I’ve picked up some pretty groovy gadgets recently. The iPhone rocks, simple. Not much more to be said on that. I also picked up this little guy, the brilliant Sony TG3, the smallest High Definition camera in the world. An excellent cam, I would highly recommend it but be warned you’ll need a good system to edit AVCHD!
Writing
I have finally decided to give writing a shot and just a few weeks ago I finished the compositing and prologue of what will be, hopefully, my first novel! As a result i’ve cut down and in some case cut out my social networking and boy the difference it makes!
What i’ve been reading
Artemis Fowl
Heroes of the Valley - Jonathan Stroud
The Magicians Nephew - C.S. Lewis
The Murder of King Tut - James Patterson
Recession, Recession, Recession!!
I am sick to the back teeth of turning on the radio or tv and hearing about recession here, recession there, FAS scandals, government mismanagement of money, banks squandering money and the lisbon treaty! I know it’s totally unrelated to anything else here but what a shower of absolute, total… ok I won’t finish that.
What’s Ahead?
Well as I mentioned above there are some interesting times ahead with Lightbox, hopefully lots of quality time with my Dad, lots of travelling to and from Dublin and possibly a two week holiday to Egypt.
In the long term hopefully a novel and my 30th birthday is not far off either!!!
