Ok, I caved… I created a Tumblr account today after seeing a colleague’s and a fellow Tweeter’s. I figured that since I rarely have the time (or the will-power) to write a full blog post here, that I would start a Tumblr blog so that I can start posting random musings (ones that don’t fit into...

Just a quick one today to talk about a service that many of you may not have heard of – Usenet. What the hell is Usenet I hear you cry? Well, back in the good old days when the word ‘internet’ wasn’t even recognized by most, a service was created called Usenet. Usenet was essentially the...

Since I have been getting a lot more visits and comments to my blog since I joined Twitter, I thought I would reward everyone by installing the DoFollow and KeywordLuv Wordpress plugins.

I have been hesitant about upgrading from Wordpress 2.2 to 2.6 for a long time, as I have worked extremely hard on creating my own design/theme and setting up Plugins etc. I really did not want to lose all that hard work. But then, whilst browsing the internet I noticed a post about upgrading Wordpress… and...

 Just a quick post today about a plugin I recently found out about for the FireFox web browser called Stylish. Stylish is a plugin that allows anyone to style any website as they wish using CSS stylesheets.

Well my site has been up for over a month now, and unfortunately Google still hasn’t allowed me to play with the big boys, I’m still in what’s known as the Sandbox. What does this mean?
