Well hello there
I recently split this site in two, to confuse unsuspecting visitors. If you want occasionally interesting bits and pieces I come across around the web, plus some food, some music and the occasional foray into news curation stay here.
If you want to read my more work-related witterings, you should probably go to work.loughlinonolan.com.
If you don't know why you're here at all, I'm afraid I can't really help you with that.

Put A Bird On It!
Shame on me, I hadn’t realised that in addition to doing Wild Flag-related things, Carrie Brownstein had also been writing and starring in the quirkily wonderful Portlandia. The second season is being broadcast in the US at the moment. Here’s … Continue reading
This May Be Taking The Whole Beanbags At Work Thing A Bit Far
Pictures of Google’s new headquarters in London.
Stop-Motion Tintin – From 1947
Simply fantastic. Inappropriate musical accompaniment with perhaps appropriate title: ‘Brand new, you’re retro’.
Ten Words You Need To Stop Misspelling
Oh yes indeed, from The Oatmeal. I am picky about spelling, always have been. It’s called getting it right. Whilst I know that language usage and the spelling of some words evolves and morphs over time, these are some of … Continue reading
