I have to do a lot of my browsing at work now and, when I do, I am forced to use IE. It’s not my choice but there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. What has prompted today’s little grump is the increased incidence of the following:
I am starting to see a few [...]

*WARNING* The following is a MySpace rant. Hardly original I know, but it had to be done.
I just had an experimental foray into MySpace - it turns out I know two people (and we’re talking ‘know’ in the sense that I’ve actually been down the pub with them) who have MySpace pages. Still fighting the [...]

So it’s a bank holiday Monday and the sun is actually shining. This is an odd enough occurrence to make me doubt that it really is a bank holiday Monday, then I do the checks …

Not waking up till gone 11.30 after staying up till 2am drinking wine, watching bad movies, and eating cheesecake. Check.
Spending [...]

I’m in the midst of the most almighty spam flood at the moment - we’re talking tens of pieces a minute. I’m shutting comments off on the posts that seem to be attracting the most attention and watching my moderation and Akismet queues like a hawk. There’s not really much else I can do. I’m [...]

Moose emailed me this yesterday and I was skeptical, till I heard odder than usual sounds issuing from her side of the flat, inquired, and discovered she was trying to tell the difference between coo moos.
Yes, you heard me. Cow sounds.
So of course, I had to check the story out for myself - Cows [...]

Went to the dentist today and I swear I spent longer having her tilt the chair back (any further and my legs would have been above my head) than I did with the dentist actually looking in my mouth. Not that that’s a bad thing - I’m good to go and still filling free for [...]

Is there an easy way to get my bookmarks from Firefox into Safari?
Whilst I am in love with the extensibility of Firefox (oh, my beloved spellchecker plugin for one!), I was curious when I read this article. So I nuked the offending icon database (it was 6.8mb :O !), fired up Safari, and am just [...]
