I thought it was a good idea to invite the Northern sister to contribute here, but there was a little thing I overlooked…

A new toy
May 20th, 2008 · Comments Off on A new toy · Technology
I started playing with a new toy using a new tool this week – Google Reader. OK, so its not new. Its not even new to me: I had a look at it soon after it started but then put it aside. The real anoraks out there can form an orderly queue while I assume […]
224 and counting
September 25th, 2007 · 2 Comments · Technology
This is the least original thing I have written (and that is saying something!) because there are at least 224 other blogs saying the same thing – Chicken Yoghurt is keeping track. I’m a bit sketchy on the details, but basically a couple of people (Tim of Bloggerheads and Clive of the UKtoday) wrote a […]
Not safe for work?
June 27th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Technology
I found about this from the family-friendly Paul Burgin, who in turn found out about it from the x-rated Rachel. It appears that I am inappropriate for children because I mention death (3 times),hell (twice) and murder (once) – unavoidable when discussing films as I have been recently. Well… unavoidable when you like zombie films. […]
Pointless but wonderful

For all those heretics who used to have a Commodore C64 instead of the mighty ZX Spectrum, here is something which may bring back some memories – someone has written a theme to make his blog look like the command line interface from the C64. Having never had a C64 myself I can’t say how […]
A new address
April 4th, 2007 · 2 Comments · Technology
This blog has a new address (skuds.org) but there should not be any need for anyone to go altering bookmarks, blogrolls and address books because the old address should re-direct to here anyway. Having said that… I am transferring the registration of the old domain during this week and it is always possible that at […]
Back again!
March 17th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Technology
Well everything is back up and running again. I guess I could have had it all up sooner if this was higher in my priorities. One thing I won’t do is apologise for not posting anything at all this week, or for the site being down. That always seems a bit self-important to me. (What […]
Computer Lessons
January 30th, 2007 · Comments Off on Computer Lessons · Technology
I had a visit today from the Mother and Godmother so I could give tem some lessons in how to set their website up. Talk about bridging the generation gap! I’m not sure who had the biggest culture shock – them coming to terms with file transfers, image re-sizing and database structure or me trying […]
Ministry of Truth
January 30th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Technology
I think the Ministry of Truth is a bit of a ‘marmite blog’ which you either love or hate, but surely even its biggest fans must have experienced a dread sinking in the stomach to read the opening lines of this post: This is going to be a long post, even by my standards, but […]

Fifty Thousand
January 11th, 2007 · Comments Off on Fifty Thousand · Technology
I am not overly obsessed with visitor statistics – every package seems to come up with a different answer and I’m not sure that any of them are right. Besides that I don’t know whether to be interested in hits, pageloads, unique visitors or what, and even they are influenced by the time interval used […]
