Take a look at this picture:

Reading University - Black Hore House

This picture was taken swiftly by me on an open day.

Could prospective undergraduates and parents then have a completely different view on the University’s on-campus hotel, ‘Black Horse House’ ‘doubling up as a brothel?

Only time will tell…

My friend Eri got an spam email from ‘bank’ the other day. When he open the email out of interest, followed the link, the following error came up:

Sri Lanka Air Force caught phishing!

If you see above, the server claims to be from this site:

Annoyingly, he deleted the email — so I have no actual proof… other than three witnesses!!

We’re in the second round of the Imagine Cup 2007!

Me and my team, Rediverse entered the Web Development invitational for the 2007 Imagine Cup competition in Korea run by Microsoft and other companies.

Stage one consisted of around 200 teams and required each team to produce a document detailing what we would do if were to go through.

Our plan is secret at the moment, as we don’t want people to nick ideas off of us, but it involves education, the web, ASP, .NET, C# and plenty of pizza, beer and late night coding sessions!

We and 59 other teams go through to the second round, and get to actually make our product. We will also present our final product to judges at the UK Finals around the 20th May.

I’m so excited about this; I can’t wait to get my little fingers whirring, coding a complete web system with my friends.
