It isn’t that I have nothing to write about, sometimes I come here, to add to this, and can’t think of how to say what I wanted to say. The big project is all but finished, it should be live in a few days. Which is good because I have suddenly become ill, and no-one … long absences again…
I know how Zeldman feels. I feel like I have had my chair welded to my bum for the last month. This big project is almost complete though, and I’m pretty pleased with it. I should be pleased with it… I’m not someone who has ever wanted to be ‘good enough’. I’ve always wanted to … The end is in sight
The Internet Archive – you will not believe the number of sites indexed by this site. Type in your own domain, or a favourite site.

Mystery solved, some of our … Referrer Weirdness
I’m at it again… regular readers may already be aware of the fact that, every so often, I feel the need to attack my stable, well configured Linux box and attempt to install something that I don’t fully understand. I use Debian, but I also use KDE, which isn’t supported by the stable release of … argh Linux!
I seriously have no idea where the time goes, I want it to slow down… I want to slow down, and I never seem to achieve that. I’m increasingly envious of the people who can spend an evening lounging in a chair, watching TV or reading a book, and just being. The constant need to … another new month?
Does anyone have any idea why an otherwise perfectly healthy computer would just randomly reboot every now and again? Sometimes it goes for a couple of days without doing it. This afternoon it has done it 6 times in 15 minutes! I’m fairly convinced it has something to do with power supply to the motherbord … Gah! Pooters!
