Welcome to NICK LANSLEY’S WEB

 
 

Welcome to my web site. Nice here, isn't it?!


Actually, although the server (which sits gently humming in the corner of my study and which has sent you this page now) does lots of nice server-y things with other computing devices in our house with some remote control access across the web, nothing terribly exciting happens on this web page - it's the links off it that are interesting. Well I think so anyway.


Firstly you should visit my tech blog (started October 4 2008) where I reveal the ideas and concepts I am pursuing in my capacity of Head of R&D at Tesco.com, the major global retailer. For more details go now to http://techfortesco.blogspot.com


The blog has a sibling Twitter account - follow @techfortesco for the latest news from Tesco.com R&D (I also have my own Twitter account @nicklansley) for non-worked related tweets!).


I have had several requests to download a high quality video of the Tesco presentation of our Tesco@Home grocery home shopping application and forthcoming Tesco API at the Microsoft Professional Developer's Conference PDC2008 in Los Angeles at the end of October 2008. If you right-click here you can save a WMV-format video of the 5 minute presentation.


Next, why not join the many thousands of people who watch my regular TV show called London Landscape TV?! LLTV shows of my favourite capital city (and the place where I have lived for 20 years+ now) off to its best. LLTV offers fresh high-definition video pictures of London betwen 2 and 4 times a month, and is filmed by me using a high-definition pro video camera for the best possible picture and sound quality. You can watch on your computer, and also on your sparkling new HD TV using a set-top box such as Apple TV, XBox360 or similar. For more details go now to

http://www.londonlandscape.tv


You can also tune into my YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/nicklansley where you will find such exciting videos as my wedding, and a couple of pieces-to-camera where I rail against bad religion and promote fairness at work for gay people like me


Into photography? me too! I also contribute to the photography that illuminates Google Earth through their Panoramio web site. Whenever you go to a place on Google Earth (using default settings) where I (and many thousands of others) have been taking photos and uploaded them via Panoramio, you'll be able to click the photo icon to view the location through my lens. For now, head to my Flickr account at:

Well that's my lot for now, and thank you for sending your web request which has resulted in this page coming to you from my study in north London!

Welcome to london!

Various pictures of me - (clockwise)my wedding ceremony to husband Brin in April 2006, outside Wembley stadium in August 2008 having watched Man Utd defeat Portsmouth on penalties in the FA Community Shield, a staged pose in front of the studio microphone for a radio podcast, and me staring at my Macbook Pro’s camera in artistic monochrome!
