My Boss told me before I left work this afternoon that I had to blog about how he has educated my musical tastes over the past two days because he’s been playing some old Christmas music. I actually want to blog about how much I’d love to shove the CDs somewhere not-so-CD-shaped because now I… read full entry »
This, this, this, this, this and this, this, this and this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this and this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this …all reasons as to why I love the quilting bee. One simple idea, a thought.. it’s taken, turned, adapted, thought about,… read full entry »
I have known for a long time that there is a difference between the load time of a site using inline styles and a site using a stylesheet: I didn’t realise how much difference! I uploaded my own without finishing things off, really — I’d forgotten to move my style to a stylesheet and hadn’t… read full entry »
I’ve been slowly but surely moving over some of the updates from my wordpress weblog/s over the years to this blog so as to give a better picture of my website over the years. It’s actually not as interesting as I thought it would be because most of the posts are “omg new layout!!” —… read full entry »
Review-You now has its own RSS Feed which, if you like to read web page reviews, you can add to your Firefox Bookmarks and see ‘live’ when new reviews are added. So, that’s um.. just me adding it to my feed reader then? ;) (Vix: I’ll finish your review by the end of the week.)… read full entry »

This is something that wasn’t allowed before (by Firefox; IE does) and surely should also be classed, like coloured scrollbars, as part of the OS/browser… read full entry »
It annoys me when I browse the Internet and see teen “web designers” in various forums complaining that they’ve had various “blends” or supposed “original artwork” stolen from them. Said artwork usually contains a sloppily edited celebrity photograph, a few dodgy Photoshop™ brushes or textures, with a few illegally downloaded (yet usually expensive) fonts chucked… read full entry »
I was updating my qbee quilt last night and it got me thinking: it’s the only online ‘thing’ that I’ve ever really stuck to. I’ve been and gone at forums, often forgetting my login names or forgetting they even exist.. never sticking to affiliate/surfing programs and heaven knows what else. Yet, here I am, a… read full entry »
Remember when I saw a flashing Snowman in August? Well, I went in to Shrewsbury again with Karl at the weekend and couldn’t see it at all. I think they’ve got their a bit seasons mixed up. Oh, did I mention that my next-door neighbours put their tree up in the middle of November? That’s… read full entry »
I’ve been thinking about this PHP style switcher business, as well as what I’m going to do with BellaBook3.1 to get it safe and secure, ready for release. I have been trying to figure out the best way to have this PHP styleswitcher without disturbing browsing. I *think* because it’s a server-side language it is… read full entry »
