A winning streak

I seem to be on a bit of a winning streak lately...

  • A couple of weeks back I won tickets to the Christchurch preview of The Simpsons Movie. A chorus of "Spider-pig" has been heard around the house by various singers since...
  • Then last week I entered a "Name the Thing Contest" contest on the Hacked Gadgets - DIY Tech Blog and won a Aryca D-pod mini camera tripod like this. The D-pod gets a good user review:
    ...little tripod - an aryca, very lightweight and strong. It is actually an extremely well designed bit of kit and folds flat into 15x5x1.5cm, so that it is easy to carry in ones pocket. Again I find it extremely useful...
    I've recently acquired a Black and White parallel port QuickCam without a base so until it gets absorbed by a project the D-pod can serve as a base.
  • And then of course there's this Saturday... :-)
