Mysterious World (Wide Web)

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

I posted this snowflake picture on my impworks web site ages ago. It normally gets a few visitors a week but nothing to blog about. A few weeks ago it started getting more and more visitors every day. Obviously it’s seasonal but that page doesn’t have great page rank in google or a high position […]

Blogs What I Read Recently

Saturday, December 8th, 2007

Having switched to Google Reader I find the list of blogs I follow expanding. Here are three which I’ve started on recently that I think are worth sharing… That very British and yet somehow subversive institution which is Stephen Fry John August – screen writer currently out on strike in the US Ken Levine – […]

Joomla Day

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

Having previously looked at Mambo today I found myself looking at Joomla which is so similar it might almost be the same but somehow in the end tastes slightly different. I can think of only one word to describe the difference based on a very quick look at each – Joomla felt cleaner. Which has […]

NaBloPoMo 2007

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

After a brief rest from all that blogging here is my last NaBloPoMo post this year.

Goodbye Technorati Hello Google Reader

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

I’ve been using Technorati for 18 months to keep track of my favourite blogs but of late the service has been unreliable. Fortunately Google Reader has now come out of the Google Labs and so tonight I switched all the feeds I follow over to it.

Less Memes More

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

I’ve decided to cut back on the number of Thursday Thirteen and Wordless Wednesday posts. Partly because I’m spending too much time on them each week, partly because I want to look around for some different memes to try and partly because I’m finding it harder to come up with good ideas for them each […]

Thursday Thirteen #35

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

Thirteen songs Mark Caldwell found when sorting out old tapes recorded from the radio in my youth Boy Meets Girl – Waiting for a Star to Fall Bob Marley – Iron Lion Zion Beverly Craven – Promise me Tasmin Archer – Sleeping Satellite Jennifer Warnes – First We Take Manhattan Level 42 – Running in […]

Astonishing Adventures in Rendering

Friday, November 9th, 2007

I’ve been creating some renders as possible illustrations for my short story for The Steward, the Kriegsherr, his Femme Fatale & her Brother. Some I’m happier with than others which is a shame as I want to use them to make a montage…

Thursday Thirteen #34

Thursday, November 8th, 2007

My 11th Thursday Thirteen was a list of birds I see on my way to work. Tonight I’ve compiled a list of types of people I see when I’m out shopping. Adulescent – Dresses and acts like he’s 16 although he’s now in his 30s. Barbiedcutie – Would be attractive woman who has spent too […]

NaBloPoMo

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

DarkDwarf mentioned NaBloPoMo, National Blog Posting Month, although since these things seem to not follow traditional boundries I’m wondering what the national anthem of blogging is. Since I post most days anyway I’m just going to have to make sure I have something to say every day…
