		<description><![CDATA[I went on the Project (amongst others) to talk about the poor old ABS and the census website failure. I experience mixed emotions watching their non-apology press conference today. On the one hand, big IT projects are hard they go wrong and I can well imagine the hell that is the lives of the engineers [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I did another spot on The Project talking about the DarkNet and online drug marketplaces. Despite the lead-in being about a poor guy who died from using drugs bought online, The Project did a balanced piece and actually asked me whether online drug marketplaces could be safer. They continue to do good work. &#160;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I did another spot on the Project tonight on Google making users&#8217; search histories available for download. Did the usual privacy-is-a-concern bit, but I do think this is a good move by Google. It is a positive development if people are aware just how much information they are putting out there. &#160;]]></description>

As an online civil libertarian I&#8217;m always very, very skeptical of any attempts at the censorship of the internet, but it doesn&#8217;t necessarily follow that I would have a go at Youtube for censoring jihadi videos. In this case, I was talking [&#8230;]]]></description>

One of those is to create a TramTracker app for my Pebble Smartwatch, so I can just glance at my watch to see when the next tram is coming.
