Opera — Ad Free

So, Opera have decided to go advertisement free. All fine and groovy, not that they ever bothered me anyway because I personally am a die-hard Mozilla/Firefox fan. Just thought you might like to know in case you’re interested in a new browser. On a site note — the people who write up the content for… read full entry »


Addendum

I think my post yesterday was somewhat misleading and I left you all (or most of you) with the impression that I was worried about other people’s opinions on my site. On the contrary, it’s not other people’s opinions that are bugging me — it’s my own! One half of my head is saying “prove… read full entry »

Professionalism Sucks

Since I discovered the Internet my main aim in life was to become the world’s greatest designer/developer. I taught myself HTML, CSS and then when I realised there was a newer, better mark-up language (XHTML): I taught myself that too. I delved in to PHP and dabbled with JavaScript; have looked into Perl and I’m… read full entry »


Review of fatedfoibles.ca

Reviewed: Manon Site URL: fatedfoibles.ca My first impressions are somewhat mixed. While I like the main image and was pleased to see it loading quickly even on my dial-up, I am not so sure about the green links. Don’t get me wrong, red and green could probably be a good combination, but that particular shade… read full entry »


The Cricket

We won the cricket! Some silly Ashes thing that only happens because the Australians beat us and so we burned the wicket — or something. I only found that out last night. Hoorah! Anyway: why am I celebrating this? No, it’s not because I’m a sporty person. I miss when I try to kick a… read full entry »

Internet-y Stuff

Thank you for the compliments on the slightly edited version of the layout. There’s a few bugs I need to fix (as you can see, I changed the font) but I’m waiting for my ‘owed’ reviews first so I can do everything at once and not miss anything. If you get bored, feel free to… read full entry »


Doctors Are Useless Too

So, I’ve come to the conclusion that Doctors are as useless as employment websites. I had two appointments at the surgery yesterday evening, one at 5:10 and another a 5:20 — the first to review how I’m getting on with the Depo Provera jabs (which I’ve been on over a year now) in accordance with… read full entry »


Useless Websites

This is one of the downfalls of specialising in IT. Employers are far and few between and when you do find something they… read full entry »


New Nephew

My updates/postings have been somewhat sporadic of late because I’m supposed to be on holiday. I’ve been working my ass off to finish a football scores/data logging database for one of the guys at work and then mid way through — it’s babysitting time. Anna was taken into hospital yesterday to be induced (she was… read full entry »

Another Revamp

I’ve decided to give Jemjabella.co.uk another revamp. I know, I know, another one. It’s not going to be a major change to the layout or coding, but I want to improve the quality of what I’ve already got. I’m going to turn some of my scribblings into articles and get rid of those with no… read full entry »
