Google Sitemapped this Blog

Friday, July 21st, 2006

I’ve been using Google Sitemaps on the impworks site for a month. I’d not realised I could use it on a blogger using the atom feed until I was browsing the web earlier. It hardly took any time to do. Log in to Google Sitemaps using your Google account (or sign up first if you […]

Some Blogs while Hiding from the Sun

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

A year ago I didn’t really see the point of blogging. Now I’m hooked and I find myself reading more blogs regularly. Here are a few of my favourites… Very True Things: Steve Pugh the SFSFW’s hard working web masters blog. DarkDwarf – on life, working at the the Assassination Bureau and trying to get […]

Too many Degrees

Monday, July 17th, 2006

So hot yesterday I completely forgot to post. Hence this completely pointless addition to the noise part of the wibbly wobbly web. Hopefully I should be coherent later once the temperature drops a little…

Usual Saturday Stuff

Saturday, July 15th, 2006

Not really a lot to report. Usual Saturday stuff recovering from the last week and doing jobs to make the next one go smoothly. Started work on a Python script for Vue that I hope will change the sun’s angles in a scene for a user entered time, date and location. Fingers crossed I’ve worked […]

Too Many Projects

Monday, July 10th, 2006

I should change my blog’s title to too many project. I’m such a sucker. I should get my head examined. As though I don’t have enough projects on the go at the moment. I get talked into writing a 15,000 word story for an anthology last week. I didn’t even put up a fight. Still […]

Captain Jack Week?

Saturday, July 8th, 2006

Went to see Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest yesterday. A very good second part to the series with a couple of really outstanding action sequences. Good character development. Interesting twists and turns to the plot see the characters and their allegiances mixed up from the first film to create some interesting new combinations. […]

The 30-Second Bunnies Theatre Library

Friday, July 7th, 2006

I wandered into this site completely by accident. I’m not going to spoil it by saying anything else other than put your beverage of choice down then go take a look. http://www.angryalien.com/

phpFreeChat

Friday, July 7th, 2006

I needed to get a chat room set up in a hurry for a project today (technically now yesterday because I’m late posting). After a bit of research (ok Google and a few script listing sites) I settled on phpFreeChat. A short time later I had it up and running. I think the FTP to […]

Keyboard Burning

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

I’ve done so much typing today my keyboard should be smoking in the heat. I only stopped during the torrential thunderstorm that hit this afternoon. Couple of thousand words on a short story / novella, a rework of an old article that I’m going to serialise here on my blog for the next few months, […]

Silly Past Lives Thingy

Sunday, July 2nd, 2006

I know this is silly and random too and I don’t personally believe in reincarnation but fun all the same and I’ve been using it to come up with character for a short story. Update: This was no longer working so I’ve pulled it
