Just thinking – the feature that’s probably changed my web browsing habits the most is the “Live bookmark” feature of Firefox. Now instead of visiting the website directly, I flick open my live bookmark, and I can see what the latest articles are, and if I want to read them. Of course it depends on […]

Quite enjoyed Sith, although my ongoing cold didn’t enhance matters too greatly. I ended up spending nearly all day yesterday in bed, but am starting to feel a little bit better now… I might hold off a review for a few days, but suffice to say I was annoyed at the apparant Jedi inability to […]

Bit more website fiddling; turns out that my PHP is riddled with errors! Not of a particularly major variety, just testing the value of undefined variables, which does causes the error log file to fill up. I found them because I was having a problem with my Gallery installation, which was down to file permissions, […]

Decided to take the XHTML plunge, so am proud to annouce that my pages are (almost) valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional. The almost is because I want the Eutony logo on the top left to be a link to the front page, which means I’ve put an anchor tag around a <div>. This is apparantly naughty, […]

This is turning out to be a fab weekend – had a lovely time at Chris and Katy’s wedding yesterday; they got married in South Parade Baptist Church in Leeds, and then the reception was in Harewood house. I was doing the ushering thing which was great fun (nothing like legitimately bossing people around), although […]

Hah – vindication is mine! I’m not a completely out of touch old fogey for liking Radio 2; apparantly just over 8 million of us like listening to Terry Wogan in the morning, which is more than one in ten of radio listeners. So there! On a different note, the election is over for another […]

I’ve rediscovered radio recently – I went through a phase in my life of always having the radio on; then I got involved in student radio and lived in a radio station, but then I drifted away, and stopped listening to music so much, and when I did it tended to be my own albums. […]

Supersize me was on the telly last night – very interesting documentary, although its impact was diminished by my reasonable familiarity with the script. On one level, if you’re only going to eat McDs for a month, what do you expect, but on another level the impact of only a month is extraordinary – it […]

I never did get around to saying what the other toys I want to save up for are! I should probably add that at the rate I am able to save the timescale is probably years, but I can still dream. So, got my eye on the Garmin Etrex range, either the Legend (~140 squid) […]

Constantine is a mildly difficult film to classify. On the one hand it’s not just another Keanu Reeves action-y flick, but on the other hand it’s not as intelligent as it thinks it is (if that makes sense). Basic premise is that our Keanu is the titular Constantine, a physic who can see angels and […]
