waiting lists

perlmonger's appointment for his MRI scan came through on Friday - it's for 16th June, which is remarkably prompt, and much quicker than we thought.

which is good, given the story here. Although, of course, in a "that's not a light, it's a train" fashion, they could be doing it as an emergency ...

he also has two followup appointments at the Eye Hospital tomorrow, with two different consultants. So at least we may know more after them.

web 2.0 - what's it *for* ?

if you ever wondered just why investors are pouring so much money into these social web applications with nice rounded corners, you could do worse than read this article by Wil Harris.

none of it comes as a surprise to me, but then I'm a cynical old bat, who believes that there's no such thing as a free lunch.

for all those who are wondering

where perlmonger's LJ has gone, he has Deleted It For The Day as part of the protest against the Great LJ Breastfeeding Icon Furore of 2006.

thank you.
