I kid, I kid… Yet another one of those spontaneous decisions to re-design my site a bit – I’m almost as indecisive as miralize… – removing the massive black sides when on large monitors, but keeping the original width and the like. Getting the background stretching out while keeping the content constrained in the middle was a massive pain though…

Anyway, other than that I’ve also changed the links page to use my Google Reader subscriptions rather than trying to manually update it myself. If you’re not there, then that means I’m not reading you, but if I should be and I have in the past, then I probably just forgot when I was re-adding all my subscriptions when I got my new desktop. Kindly give me a nudge to remind me to re-subscribe, and you’ll appear there

I also want to ditch the huge Gallery installation and replace it with something that’s more integrated with WordPress’ functions and the like, and uses WordPress’ commenting system so that people can comment on individual pictures on their own separate pages. If you know of any plugins that do this sort of things, let me know!

Hey look, I’m making vlog sorta thingies now.

So, I’ve been getting a fair few new subscribers on my YouTube channel – I’m not sure if I can go so far as to start calling them "fans" just yet though – mostly from people liking my current Let’s Plays. If you don’t know what I mean by an LP in this sense, go Google it now.

I’ll wait.

Back? Good. Now I can talk as if you know what I mean

There’s been a lot of things I’ve been meaning to do over the past week or so that, quite frankly, haven’t happened. It was all looking very doable at the start of the week, but it just seems to have fizzled out into nothingness. Maybe these long summer days are starting to take their toll on me – not that they’re really much different from long college days other than the location change. Ah well, now I’m stuck with a long to-do list and only three days until we go on holiday

Tommy was just on ICE this afternoon, and to quote his tweet: “Never laughing off 10-year old target demographics ever again!”. His stats are actually impressive, probably unlike mine… So rather than trying to explain what sort of stats I get here, I just took a print screen!

As of today, I am now officially double the culchie I was before. The first bit, as you should know, is because of the fact I live in Meath. But now it’s been made worse by the fact I am now (at least attempting to) be a part of Culch.ie, so you can enjoy more of my pointless ramblings over there, even if it means the downfall of my blog, or if it makes my feed look like a barren wasteland. If you don’t know what Culch.ie is or haven’t been there yet, go now.

I was beginning to get sick of the layers upon layers of “sub-menus” I was putting up there, first the main menu, then the menu of stuff that is blog related, then another for links to the previous post/page, and probably more to come. So I gave up, and re-instated a sidebar. Which you can see over there >>>

Recently there have been a few people mentioning their blogs reaching their first year (or more) anniversary. That’s when it transpired to me that I had started up this site in particular in some January. A quick check shows, that it was indeed January 12th, 2007 when this one came to fruition. Guess that means a belated, mandatory load of drivel about the past year etc. etc., blah blah blah…

Alright I just had a very weird thing happen a moment ago. I was logged in on my backend writing stuff and upgrading comment files to use 2.7 features, when I noticed that I was logged out on the frontend. Still logged into backend so tried to log out failed from the backend, and failed. WTF?

Like I just said – “if it goes off without a hitch then I’ll be very surprised!”. I am not surprised. While it seemed to go down well, there was one very annoying technical problem (and once browser problem). And this is really bugging me now…
