I’ll come clean and tell you today was a pretty forgettable one.  Knocked up a website portfolio in the morning and then coded in the central library in the afternoon.  I found a spot where you could catch a whiff of free wifi.  Look for British Art.

In the spirit of documenting mundanity as it happens, I hit upon an idea last night.

It arises out of a couple of problems that I’ve recognised recently.

• I snap lots of random crap with my phone that tends to stay locked up there taking up space.
• I don’t post everyday crap on this blog, resulting in blogger’s guilt.

Framed like this, with a crap surplus and a crap deficit, the solution is obvious. I should blog my mobile pics. Furthermore, I should commit myself to a quota. Five a day would seem to be about right and handily piggybacks on the well known sprout of nutritional wisdom.

I considered posting them on Flickr where they could be properly ordered in space and time but this is a tad extra work and they might be a bit crap when I’m trying to clean up my Flickr photostream. Not sure how it’ll pan out so I’m keeping it simple and making no commitments. I guess some may have a story, some may be arty and some might obviously be filler.

If you want to do some arty web2.0-style group bonding, feel free to join in. I’ll be using the 5aday tag for such posts which shall continue until such time as I grow weary of them.

So here are the five I took last night to make my quota. Today is likely to be more interesting, what with the Blogger meet and being on Eggheads and all:
