To Ad or Not to Ad

August 29, 2004

Hmmm… Blogger is encouraging me to put Adsense ads on the page (well it’s encouraging everyone with a Blogger account). I must admit I’m not too sure about the idea, I’ve found that ads can be a little intrusive, image ads certainly are. I loathe all the animated ads in hotmail and now rarely use [...]

Button It

August 25, 2004

It’s just occurred to me that my neighbours must have a really odd perception of me. Anything you say near a window here carries rather well. About an hour ago when discussing the Chris Moiles show with my partner I wandered out to the kitchen saying “prediliction for testicles” at a level suited to ‘through [...]

Flash ! Aaaaahaaaa !

August 25, 2004

That’s it, I’ve officially given up on the idea of making a Flash website. life’s too short, and what I want to do just seemed hopelessly complicated for very little ‘pizazz’.

How Hard Can it Be ?

August 21, 2004

Extremely bloody hard is the answer, I think. I’ve been glaring at various Flash tutorials for about two weeks now, on and off.. and I still haven’t got any closer to getting the site underway. I did manage to fool myself into thinking I might have hit on something today.. but no. I made over [...]

Eyes Like Saucers

August 13, 2004

Which pretty much describes me right now! This heat has been killing me and you’d think if I was going to get anything disgusting it would be before the weather broke… but no. No, I have to wait until the weather breaks and everything’s bearable to contract something that gives me more sleepless nights. I [...]

Workspace

August 7, 2004

I was thinking it might be fun to put up a photo of my workspace, at work. Trust me you don’t want to see the creative corner of our living room.. you can’t swing a mouse in here.. So, anyway for those who are interested this is where I spend most of my professional working [...]
