  • Catastrophic failure

    Noooooo!!!

  • The dullest blog in the world

    No, not this one, of course.

  • Bandwidth monster

    A couple of big links sites have recently picked up my translations site, and in the last few days I’ve seen the bandwidth go from 1GB bi-monthly to 1GB daily.

  • CSS sucks

    I have ranted on in the past about how great XHTML and CSS are. You can find similar diatribes all over the many sites devoted to bleeding edge web design. (I’ll link to some when I can be bothered.) However, I’ve come to realise that my confidence is slightly misplaced.

  • Internationalnet

    I’ve had a personal website for a few years now, on and off. However, I’ve never been involved in anything on the internet of a more universal interest than my day-to-day musings, so all my dealings with websites and bandwidth and advertising have been, shall we say, modest.

  • Digital music done right

    Yesterday, Apple announced a couple of new product updates (iTunes 4 and new iPods). Now, these are all very nice in themselves. The new 30GB iPod is just one tenth of an inch thicker than my current 10 gigger, and has a few neat interface enhancements (yes, I want one, but not until the prices fall); the new iTunes supports auto-config music library sharing via Rendezvous (OS X users: open up your port 3689 and lets play each others’ music!).

  • Gaylords

    Unbelievably, there is a new Worms-style Flash game at the BBC website, called Gaylords. It features weapons such as the Condom Missile, and the Rolling Tranny. Can someone please explain to me what they’re trying to say?
