leave a comment »

BA Graduate Scheme

Apply now for the British Airways IT Graduate programme!

On this 18-month programme, you’ll have placements with a cross-section of our IT teams and gain an overview of what we do. You’ll be given a solid grounding in the technologies and systems that keep everything running smoothly. You’ll also get involved in hands-on programming, coding, testing and design concepts, through to live implementation. Finally, you’ll work with our commercial clients to understand their business issues and identify innovative solutions that best meet their needs. You’ll be coached by mentors and have relevant training and developmental support, so you are far from alone whilst working on these projects.

Great opportunity to get involved in the Olympics as well 😉

Our Graduate Programmes start on Monday 23rd July 2012. Initially, you will be supporting our partnership with the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games in locations around London, before beginning your placements with the business in early September.

Why I am not worried about Japan’s nuclear reactors. (via Morgsatlarge – blogorific.)

Massive and informative post. Everyone should read

**Update** I have to stop moderating the comments as my parents in law have come over to stay with us due to the fear of aftershocks, so I am sorry if that causes any inconvenience, or stifles any debate. I honestly didn’t expect this level of interest (its over 32,000 views as of 11:12pm Japan time) Just a few comments. I do not work for the nuclear industry. I am an English teacher, from Australia, living in Kawasaki, Japan. My friend Dr J. Oeh … Read More

Blog warming party?

leave a comment »

I’ve successfully moved my phil-leung.com domain to a new hosted WordPress blog. I’ll be reposting a couple of posts from the old one but I doubt anyone is going to miss the rest of them!

My aim, as always, is to write about what interests me; mobile devices, collaboration, travel and maybe a bit of web development!. Don’t expect massive posts, just things barely longer than a tweet!

phil-leung.me

I’ve just purchased myself a new “social media” domain to link my social networks together. I think its a great idea as most of us have presences in multiple networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Linked In.

I’ll be using it as a go to link for all of my content. Hopefully, once again, it will prompt me into blogging a bit more!

Anyway, have a look here at phil-leung.me and tell me what you think with the contact form in the lower left hand corner. I’m still trying to work out the design, so bear with me!

Oh my, its another post…

Well, looks like I was wrong with my last post! Its been 4 months since that one?! Shame on me. Well in an effort to resurrect this blog, I’ll be talking more about issues/subjects that are brought up in my working and social life.

First up, my new role at work involves working on collaboration tools for staff to use. Hopefully these tools will make work easier for them, and make people more effective in the work place. I’m also going to be involved in the future direction of how people at work communicate because I’m a representative of the “Facebook and Twitter” generation apparently (I better brush up on my poking and RT’s!).

So I’ll be documenting my thoughts on how I see things like Facebook and Twitter could fit in at the workplace with this blog (very 2.0 I know…).

Hopefully people will find this mildly interesting and maybe even comment on my posts!

Driving range at sunset in Phoenix

Just joined twitter (phil_leung)! bit late, but I’m going to Phoenix tomorrow (yay) so thought it would be a good time to try it out while I have something interesting to write about! I’ve put a nice little Twitter applet on the sidebar of this app.

Going to Phoenix with a couple of mates from uni Simon and Dave, to meet another uni mate James who’s out there already! we’ve hired a Ford Edge for our road trip to San Diego and Tijuana 😀 gonna be amazing! Hoping this will be the catalyst for me to actually start blogging properly (doubtful). Watch this space…

Well, a few weeks ago I accidentally deleted half of the blog. Being lazy, I’m just starting from scratch! Its going to be less of a blog this time, since I was crap at keeping the previous blog alive. I’ll keep this neat, tidy and maybe even professional?!
