And so that was Christmas
In: diary
29 Dec 2009Well, nearly done with the Christmas season now. Not back to work until the 4th, so taking it nice and easy.

In: diary

The BBC is in advanced negotiations with Google to make programming available via a branded channel on the search giant’s video-sharing site, [...]
