Friday was a special occassion. The 200th episode of the excellent Boagworld podcast.
To celebrate, rather than record the usual show of about 1hour the hosts organised a 12 hour spectacular pulling together some of the brightest and most interesting people in the web industry. There were experts on coding and design, CSS and CMS, useability [...]
For the second time in a week I can’t log in to Games For Windows Live.
I can log into the Live mail account associated with it and am online doing other things.
What am I trying to do? Play Dawn of War 2 Campaign.
That, is a single player game which requires two online services to run [...]
It seems the supreme magic user in Europe has opened his mouth and channelled the spirit of a bigot from an earlier time. Given the organisation he is in it could be anywhere from the 1st century to last week.
Daily mash as usual are pretty on the ball with the satire.
He apparently will be touring [...]
An SEO company previously discussed here with a dubious reputation has sent in the lawyers against someone who posted about them.

I couldn’t really figure up a good way to post about random stuff from the trip to London so will start off with the food.
Friday
On the Friday we arrived in the afternoon so we only really ate out for tea. With the hotel we were given a voucher for various Hotel owned outlets. We opted [...]
Genna got another call from a web design company today. This time they are claiming that that a government scheme is there to help companies with websites.
For £149 per year she can have a site with a shop. A quick scan of their site shows that that package is £199 per year. The £149 one [...]
An article in the Guardian has the Vatican defending smears on them based on paedophile priest stories.
