After coming across something on Stephen Lang’s site some time ago where he takes exception to an Observer journo attacking book-review bloggers. Now to be fair, the journalist in question did maintain that there are quality review blogs out there, but also that there is a lot of dross and putrid opinion that you have [...]

I’ve been viciously tagged by Joe Dolson to take part in a meme where I have to describe five things about myself that probably aren’t common knowledge. This is a tricky one, because some of my offline friends will know plenty of things about me that won’t particularly be known online, so I’m not going [...]

I was viciously, much against my better judgement forced to go out on the beer last night, as one of my friends (actually two of my friends) had had a baby on Friday night. I’d not seen him for a while as he’d been caught by the impending-fatherhood “better-not-have-a-drink-in-case-baby-comes” theory for quite some time now, [...]

Talking about the Nintendo Wii the other day made me start to reminisce over the different games-playing machines I’ve had, and stop to think about what have been my favourites, and why.

In other words, how did I end up being involved with, and passionate about web accessibility? I could argue that I don’t know any disabled people, but that’s perhaps not true now. It would be more accurate [...]

Newcastle United’s injury list is now at the level of being catastrophically silly. To be fair, Glenn Roeder new at the end of last season that he needed more bodies to arrive in the squad, he said he wanted six new players because the squad simply wasn’t big enough, and our chairman backed him to [...]

… and … Wii Are Getting A Nintendo I had been thinking of getting some kind of console this Christmas. I’d been after an Xbox 360 for the best part of a year, not having managed to scrape enough money/Santa Good Points â„¢ together last year for one of these beasts. They’re slick, they’re fast, [...]

I had a post on the teaching of Creationism in schools, entitled Creationism: Let It Be The Light which was a provocative title to be fair, but the argument I was making was that schools are banned from using Intelligent Design and Creationism resource packs in the teaching of science, and I see nothing wrong [...]
