What we learned this week #60

We’ve got a fun blog this week, and something a bit different: a couple of questions that caused some healthy debate and actually kind of play off each other. See, fun! (Still got it).

What we learned this week #59

Pablo Picasso once said ‘Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.’ But what did he know? He couldn’t even paint people properly! Besides, we now know that computers – and phones even – can do even more than that. And while the new iPhones took up a lot of attention, there’s some other stuff we learned this week too.

This week I tried my hand at a bit of lifehacking – tracking my sleep and making it better, doing productivity stuff – but I guess at some point I ran into some malware (read: an ill person) and came down with a virus (read: I have a cold). Sigh. Modern technology can do a lot, but it’s still at the whim of use imperfect humans.

What we learned this week #53

This is not a week to own leather sofas, as I’m sure many people have found. The heat has been almost unbearable in the Western hemisphere over the past seven days, even more reason to stay indoors and discuss the ‘hot’ (pun intended) (if inexcusable) button topics on Quib.ly!

What we learned this week #52

Okay, so I know we were all a little disappointed by the summer holidays fun being spoilt by some school talk last week but, uh, well it’s happened again. Sorry, but the stuff we’ve learnt this week about that there new English curriculum is just too darn good not to share; we’ve got more fun-in-the-sun fare though, so don’t fret, and keep lathering on the sun tan lotion!
