Well, the transfer window is due to close at midnight tonight. So far, it looks as though we’ll have signed the grand total of possibly one American central defender on loan from Standard Liege, called Ogu… Oguchi… Goochy. I must admit to being a little concerned at signing someone in defence who has the nickname [...]

Some time ago, Stephen Lang had a meme where he looked at ten things beginning with a particular letter and shared his thoughts on them. I volunteered myself to have a crack at this. Having done it before with the letter T, I requested a different letter this time and ended up with A. It’s [...]

Well, to those of you who have forgotten, WCAG 2.0 was that document published by the WAI on the 27th April 2006, almost a year ago. They weren’t exactly published to universal acclaim, with a number of commenters highlighting significant problems: To Hell With WCAG 2.0 — Joe Clark WCAG 2.0: When I Want A [...]

Yes, according to my Wii, I have achieved peak fitness. I apparently have the body of a 20 year old. And no cracks about it being buried under the floorboards, please … Dan achieved a fitness of 20 on the 13th January, putting him fifteen days ahead of me. On the other hand, I think [...]

This in turn inspired the TV series Room 101 in which various celebrity guest are invited to select five things they hate [...]

Over the last month, I’ve encountered a whole swathe of websites and web applications that have been put together by obviously intelligent people — there’s some serious processing going on in some of ‘em — and yet don’t offer so much as a nod towards web standards or web accessibility. So it got me wondering. [...]

Ruth Kelly MP has come under a lot of criticism in the last week because she has chosen to send one of her children, who has been identified as having special needs, to a fee-paying private school, rather than to a free state school. The main objection seems to be that it’s all very well [...]

I was meme tagged by someone I’ve never even heard of just before the New Year (James McGovern of “Thought Leadership”), who picked up on the “five things about me” meme and said wouldn’t it be nice if we got people to think about charities instead and try and put the world to rights, rather [...]
