ISPs are not your friends

Internet Service Providers are great, or so you might think. Piping all the wonders of the web into your home for you to peruse at your leisure, allowing you to interact with friends and family all around the world. I’ve just found out (from my wife who has spent the morning researching these things for […]

Wordpress 2.5 Should Improve Embed Handling

This peice of news comes as a relief to me; as of next week, once WP2.5  is released, the problems with the layout of this post should be a thing of the past. An excerpt from the Blog Herald’s WordPress Wednesday post detailing some of the improvements follows the jump.

New NIN Album Released Online

I apologise for the lateness of this news (it won’t be news to people who were paying attention) but this one completely passed me by, too much time spent in WoW methinks.
(Note: clicking on the ‘read more’ link will lead you to what looks like a broken page, this is due to the embedded music […]

Gmail Glitching

Chaos is beginning to descend…

I think I might have too many drafts sitting on my dashboard. Do I really want to get rid of them? Or should I take some time to finish them off? I also have a reader full of feeds I hardly look at any more. Should I remove them completely or file them away in […]
