Easy thumbnail photo gallery

May 2nd, 2003

Nate from Webgraphics draws our attention to PhotoPal – a superb and extremely easy to use image gallery creator. Having a digital camera is all fine and dandy but getting your precious pics onto the web is a pain in the ass. Hopefully this cool app will make the process a whole lot easier from […]

Spend a week with a Mac

A Windows user spends a week with a Mac and details his experience. Fascinating reading. Not ‘arf.

Ready to roll

April 16th, 2003

We are now a mere 16 hours away from moving from Milton Keynes to Buckingham. Our home is once more just a house with a lot of our stuff in it. The inexplicably hot weather has made for a fun last day here in Emerson Valley. Apparently it’s hotter than in Spain or Greece today. […]

A long shot

April 14th, 2003

Anybody know how to disconnect/connect a gas cooker with a standard bayonet hose fitting *safely*? I resent paying a plumber to do a job that, on inspection, looks so easy. Of course, gas being the dangerous entity that it is, I don’t want to go screwing it up. Help!

Serious and Organised

April 10th, 2003

Just carried out a little housekeeping on this site. The home page now carries the complete current month’s entries, not just a selection. I think some people were confused by the ‘previous posts’ bit as it also contained the current home page posts as well. That’s a shortcoming of my coding skills I’m afraid. So, […]

Survey Monkey

April 9th, 2003

The easiest way to create online surveys is surely SurveyMonkey.com. This amazing, free service enables you to create a simple question-based survey that can send you tabulated data of the results. I’m going to use one on this site at some point.

Convert Me

April 8th, 2003

I needed 200ml of water to add to my Slim Fast pasta dish. A little googling unearthed Convert-me.Com: Interactive measurements calculator, weights and measures / metric conversion. So, we’re talking 0.8 of a cup. A cup being what size exactly? Round and round we go. I’ll take a guess since I don’t fancy counting out […]
