1980s pop + accessibility

Sometime back in the late 1980s, a UK band called Breathe released a track called "Hands to Heaven". The band have long since split up, but one of the original members is now involved in web design at Headscape.

Hence, "Hands to Heaven" has been covered in an accessibility-styleee (the "Boag" in question is Paul Boag, creative director at Headscape).

Made my day, but probably only funny to those who remember the original or are involved in web design...!

As part of my stop-start attempts at learning Danish, and while I wait for a video to convert from VOB to WMV format, I've created a new Twitter account called graemepaadansk. I plan to post 3 - 4 tweets a day, made up of interesting Danish phrases I come across, my current thoughts in Danish, or anything else I can think of. The only rule I have set myself is that ALL tweets must be in Danish - no English allowed!

Feel free to follow me if you wish - Danish speakers are particularly welcome to correct my mistakes!!!!

Create your own album cover!

A bit of fun this one, passed on to me by a friend...

1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random... Read More”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days.
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use photoshop or similar to put it all together.

Here's mine:
