Back (in black)

I’ve revived this site, after almost a year. It started attracting an awful lot of comment spam, and trackback spam, so I turned off comments and stopped updating it until I’d figured out what to do about spam. Then MT 3.2 came along, with built-in filtering and I got broadband. So I thought, “Why not revive eat your greens?” Indeed. Just need to decide what to do with it now.

Useful stuff that’s come up in the last 12 months:

My flickr account
All new digital photos are being posted there, rather than here. A few old ones are going up too, as I find them on various hard drives scattered about the place. Older photos are still on this site
Joe Clark’s accessibility workshop
“The discussion between Joe and the audience on the subject of real practical issues was most helpful”. Yes indeedy.
Smart playlists in iTunes
Handy guide from Andy Budd on creating playlists from other playlists. My iPod is up to 4,500 songs now, so it’s useful to program it to play songs I rarely listen to.
The War of the Worlds, from Dark Horse Comics.
A serialisation of the original Victorian novel. Updated every Friday.
Live Music Archive
Too much Grateful Dead for my taste, but I’ve downloaded a Camper van Beethoven show from 1988 and shows by the Handsome Family and fIREHOSE.
