New Project – Big Brother 10 Mobile Site

// June 13th, 2009 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

It’s that time of the year again. Big brother has hit our screens for the 10th year in a row! It’s only been a week and a bit but it seems pretty good this year, although the housemates (understandably) haven’t fully come out of their shells yet.

That’s right everyone. Thanks to All About Symbian, I can now reveal that Nokia’s next flagship phone, the N97, will be coming to British shores on the 19th of June. That’s about 2 1/2 weeks from now. (more…)

My mind’s made up…

I’ve finally decided what I’m going to get… Phone or PC… and the winner is… (more…)

Trying to do what I can with what I’ve got

// May 18th, 2009 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

This “Phone or PC” debate has been pissing me right off, because I can’t decide on which one to go for. So, tonight I thought I would do what I could with my PC to see if I can speed it up without spending a penny. This is what I’ve done: (more…)

New Phone or New PC?

// May 13th, 2009 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff, General

I’m in quite a pickle at the moment. I’ve been saving up to get something that I really want (because I should be allowed to treat myself) but I don’t know what to go for: a new phone, or a new PC? Here’s my arguments for both… (more…)

A year of Wii Fit

// May 7th, 2009 // No Comments » // Diet, Geeky Stuff, General

It was a year ago today that I bought Wii Fit after hunting all around the shops in Middlesbrough, only to find it in the very last shop I was going to check (Argos). Now, a year later, how have I done? (more…)

A little bit of rearranging

// April 19th, 2009 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff

There’ve been two issues I’ve had since I moved into the flat:

  • The early morning sun shines in my face, which isn’t good… especially after a night out on the lash
  • If I’m on the computer and the room seems stuffy, opening the window takes a while to freshen it up because the desk is in the far corner

So today I decided to kill two birds with one stone… I’ve swapped the bed and desk around in my bedroom! My bed’s out of the direct sunlight now, and my computer desk is right by the window. The moment I open the window, I immediately feel the fresh air come in. It was also a good thing too that I moved the PC, because it made me see how much dust will still in the machine when I moved. *Blows dust out* *coughs* *splutters* There… that should help keep the temperature down.

As you can see, there’s not a lot to report right now, but I have a feeling there will be soon…

New project underway

// March 10th, 2009 // No Comments » // Geeky Stuff

I used to have a site I built myself. Now I’m using SimplePHPBlog. It’s really good, but I feel I’ve lost touch with who I am a little… a web designer. Sure, I do web design at work but I haven’t done anything about my own site for ages!

So I’m redesigning it.

I’m going back to my roots, writing my own blog code and menu structure and everything! I’m doing what I’ve always wanted to do with it and it’s going to be perfect! This is gonna take a looong time no doubt, but it’ll be worth it!

Watch this space!
