POPSTen cognitive distortions that mess you up David Burns is a pioneer in popularizing the cognitive-behavioral approach to mood therapy developed by Aaron Beck. As someone who has struggled on and off with crippling depression my whole life, I have found this list of "cognitive distortions" pretty useful in reframing certain elements of my thinking.

POPSTEA The references to "Americans" can also be switched for "non-English Europeans". I live in Holland, and it's the same story.. However, they're not in the slightest bit interested in drinking tea like the English do. Give them a cup of hot light brown tea any day. (Actually, it's a nice low-caffeine alternative to the stuff drunk in England. You just gotta get used to it peeps, honest..)

POPSWeb2.0 blackmail?
This is weird. I'm searching Google for my name (in inverted commas) and result nr 9 is a page that appears to be a profile page for me. I can even see my job title in the Google result summary. I click thru of course, and what do I find? A page that could be my profile page. It's got all sorts of info about me and yet.. I never signed up to this site, hell, I've never heard of it. I'm not sure what to think of it really. It's all public info of course, from LinkedIn etc. but it's just spooky that some random site has extracted and accumulated it all like that. Especially high up on Google. To be honest it feels not right. And yet, it's public info, so what, am I complaining? Well, yes, and no. I don't know. Bloody irritating... I'm gonna watch the page for a while to see how it develops.. without signing up of course. It also talks about your online reputation being important as if they're gonna start adding crap to the page if you don't sign up. Anyone else got a naymz page?

POPSBluetooth Retro Handset I'd love to buy this.. but I don't think I could pull it off in public. I'd be too embarassed with everyone staring. Even tho it's f*ckin cool! :)))

POPSApple Macbook Air When I saw this I started drooling and (nearly) headed straight to Ebay. So here are some pics. Note however the "fatal flaw" according to Gizmodo. You can't open it up. To be honest, I don't really see that as an issue. I think many laptop owners, especially those that go for eye-candy never go near the inside of their laptop, or change the battery.

POPSSend to Flickr Bookmarklet Was looking for a 'Send to Flickr' bookmarklet, and hey, I've found one :) Unfortunately it's not as cool as the Clipmarks Firefox extension that snaps bits of web-page.. god I love that extension :) Ideal for Flickr. You know tho, I was thinking - Clipmarks is far more suited to posting pics from web pages as it were than Flickr is, but hey, I wanted to do it, so do it I had to :)

POPSStart Firefox (or Thunderbird) in Safe Mode After a Firefox extension prevented me from starting up Firefox normally (the extension just kept on pounding the CPU and wouldn't let up) I solved the problem simply by starting Firefox in Safe Mode as described in the clip and disabling the extension. I then simply started Firefox up again normally. Bingo :)

POPSHTC Streaming Media (player) links A couple of links for the HTC Streaming Media player. I just downloaded it from the 2nd link to try to get Orange TV working on my HTC Kaiser. The fight continues...
