Why do I almost invariably get adverts for IMVU on the side of Livejournal? It means that whenever I'm at work I have to look over my shoulder before having a glance at anyone with a Plus account. It advertises itself as just a "3D instant messaging service", certainly, but just from looking at the front page it clearly has a more... specialist purpose. (Edited to add: Actually, just ignore that - on looking at it further it appears that the homepage changes itself according to your LJ interests. That's quite clever and intrusive at the same time.)
There's something else I've been meaning to mention - my computer desk has now been completed with the addition of a Clickteam mousemat. I'm impossibly proud of it because to the best of my knowledge (and Google's) you can't actually buy them anywhere - I've been doing a bit of work writing tutorials for Clickteam recently and the mousemat was sent as a surprise along with my payment.
I'm beginning to realize the madness of my life at the moment - I go into work and write code, then come home and write more code in my spare time. I'm a little worried that if it becomes my whole life then I'll immediately lose interest in it. But still, when I was younger my parents used to say that I was just wasting my time by spending so much of it on the computer, so who's laughing now?
