Mindjet did listen - A New Option for Individual Consumers
Mindjet have announced a revised structure for their “Mindjet” subscription packages which meet with a very mixed reaction when first announced. In addition to the full “Business” ($30/month) subscription there is now an “Individual” option. This appears to add the Mindjet desktop application, formerly known as MindManager, to the
A double dose of Autodesk University sadness #AU2012
I have a double dose of Autodesk University sadness to report: My favourite AU bag has worn out! I have used my Autodesk University 2005 roller backpack almost daily since collecting it in Orlando. All those kilometres, including several further AU trips, finally took their toll and the base stitching
A swell battery no more
The elderly (work) HP 2710p Convertible Tablet PC got a bit fatter today. It’s about 5 years old and had a slim extra battery pack which clipped on the bottom extending battery life from a couple of hours to about eight. I picked it up from the desktop dock
No Escape from Alcatraz
This photo was randomly selected as my desktop image today. Somehow, of all the photos I took there it was one of the most memorable. On a fine sunny day Alcatraz is a nice place, but only when you know you can leave on the next boat…

See: Mindjet did listen - A New Option for Individual Consumers Recently MindManager, the premium mind mapping application from Mindjet, has seen some radical changes. It’s not the typical application centred change — like new feature

Alfie was just resting, on a cemetery walk, as were those around him.
Google reveals the internet is a series of tubes!
Remember that line about the Internet being "a series of tubes"? Some amazing photos of a place that is Google: Google reveals photos of its data centres - www.dezeen.com
Revit
Your chance to improve Revit construction modelling?
I got to ‘know’ Chris Yanchar via Architectural Desktop Beta, Discussion Groups and his Autodesk “Between The Walls” ADT blog but we first met at Autodesk University 2004 (right). I don’t usually post jobs on here but this morning a rather special request arrived in my inbox. If you’
