Thank you to everyone who has shared their memories of Rob.

The team wanted to share some of his MetaBrainz story and our personal experiences with the master of mayhem, and this blog post has emerged:

We miss you Rob.

Pretty hooked on #litterati now. Going to be posting my #litteratitreasure (e.g. weird finds) here now, as well as my weird music finds (#albumscan).

Firstly, this coin, which is like finding a caveman by NZ standards!

I've been using #litterati for a while - how the heck did I not find out about #openlittermap until now?

Has anyone compared the two? Naturally, I am inclined towards the open version, but keen to hear some thoughts.

I’ve been picking up rubbish on dog walks, with the Litterati app (open source rubbish data!) Turns out me and Bean both need “enrichment”.

Last week I found a half-buried plastic bag with some interesting contents.

Does ANYTHING beat @ListenBrainz when it comes to tracking physical listens? Just mucking about listening to music today and it suddenly hit me that we’ve created something great.

Todays #musicbrainz #albumscan: Various - Rest Your Mind to the Music -and let the Maersk Minds work for you!

Pretty restful for the most part, apart from dud or two. Makes my top 10 shipping company mixes. Maersk did NONE of my work while I listened to this.

Six weeks ago I had been attending the #MetaBrainz Summit, which this year took place in Delhi. It was a great experience and much fun to meet both old friends and new faces. Beside all the talk about MetaBrainz projects we also got to experience India and Indian hospitality.

@aerozol has written a detailed blog post on the @metabrainz blog. Many great pictures there as well.

Todays #musicbrainz #albumscan: Guy Cater - Change for Life

One of the best ‘album’ covers a thrift shop has delivered so far! I haven’t taken this for a test-ride yet, but open for suggestions as to what thing I should try change in 30 days!
