It’s not my Mum’s birthday tomorrow

You’ve got to love American social networking sites. Plaxo thinks that it’s my Mum’s birthday tomorrow, as I got this email from them:

Rosalie J. Saunders’s birthday is tomorrow ( Apr. 8 )

No! Mum’s next birthday is 04/08/08, which in UK-speak equates to 4th August, not 8th April which it is in USA-speak.

New design for Amazon.co.uk

Amazon UK has a new website design: take a look: www.amazon.co.uk

If you’ve already seen the Amazon USA site over the last few months then it’s basically the same design ported over for us Limeys.

Gone are the horizontal tabs in favour of left-hand, fly-out style navigation.
