OMFG! OMFG!
From Major Nelson:
In addition to the list of new dashboard features that were announced today, there are a few more that were not included in the press release that I think may be of interest to some longtime blog readers. After the update, there will be two new choices in the account management section of [...]

An eventful Wednesday - who’d have thought
Just after coming in from quite a long and eventful Wednesday - although, that’s something I thought I’d never have to say this semester….
Oooh, I still have some Pepsi left over from yesterday….. something else I never thought would happen…
Anyway, I don’t know how long this list will be, so I’ll start in list form, [...]

You’ve got to admire the cheek
Right, just following links as usual from other blog posts and random crap, when I stumbled upon this post. Apparently the Mozilla team have registered the domain ie7.com. When someone loads it, it gives you a nice large advertisement for Firefox
Given my anti-IE stance, I love it. Might use the link when showing [...]

Selfless Gamers
Most gamers I know can be quite selfish, both in real life and online (XBL and/or PC). However, this story I’ve just read shows that there are a few out there who are quite the opposite:
How nice is Satanic Soul? (Dont answer that, as Im about too)
I know him in real life, we met in [...]

Statistics Breakdown
I still find it hard to believe it’s only been 2 weeks since I installed the Wordpress.com Blog Stats here. And before those of you confused as to why there isn’t that bar on top of my site - it’s not hosted by Wordpress.com
The plugin works kinda the same way as Akismet, if you have [...]

Hey, if you don’t stop taking pics of yourself, you’re gonna have to go get your own blog!

Now this is a cheap ass gamer….
We all know that gamers don’t necessarily want to have to spend much money to fuel their hobby. Why else do we buy second-hand games, and wait for hardware price drops? Why else do we complain about having to pay for features which should be free?
Well, earlier today I received this message from one of [...]
Hardware failures FTL
Self-explanatory title perhaps?
Anyway, I’m not talking about my personal computer, or my web host’s server. No, instead I’m talking about whatever server Hyperiums is hosted on. Since they had a failure on Sunday that caused a nice little 24-hour downtime
Whatever the issue was, it seems that DG’s (the “god” of the [...]

You would have done so yourself…
I’m wondering whether most of you who read my blog (people read this shit?!) - have ever heard of the Blogger’s Choice Awards. I’m presuming that you haven’t - otherwise, I’d have seen my blog already nominated for some of the more obscure categories like: Freakiest Blogger, Most Obnoxious Blogger and Worst Blog of All [...]
“Other Half” issues
I’m starting to get fed up, so I sent an e-mail to the IT support to try and get some assistance:
Dear IT Support,
Eighteen months ago I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Mates 4.2 which I’d used for years without any trouble. However, there are apparently conflicts between these two products and the only solution [...]
