Is MobileMe really worth it?
Once apon a time it was, at least for me. I got it when it was .mac. The main reason i wanted it was for iWeb. I loved the idea of hassle free and yet sexy web creation/blog so i wanted the subscription. As i had the subscription i also decided to take advantage of the mac mail so that i could use mail.app. I basically forwarded all mail from my google and hotmail account to the mac account.

Twitter take over
I love blogging. It’s theraputic. I get to say what i want to say knowing that i wont get confronted about personel things face to face and to also get people thinking and reading about things they wouldn’t usually read about. My blog has no theme. It’s anything and everything. I don’t get a lot of readers either. It’s just nice to have for me. Don’t get me...
Dutch vs the Londoners
My cousing Petra came over for a few days here in good old England and she couldn’t have come over at a better time! The weather was fantastic and Gabriella her and I had a great day out in London. Done a bit of shopping and sight seeing and tubing. Goooood times :-) Oh and there were sooooo many dutch people! Literally every where we looked there some dutch people!
Second time too as i...
You know, After watching incredible amounts of the West Wing, my admiration for politicians has grown a lot. They do so much shit and have no personal life. This is of course presuming that the show stays true to real politics in America.
Microsoft Office 08 Lag
This little complaint is going to make me look like an Apple fan boy, which in a lot of respects is true, however you cannot say that Microsoft software is bad. (apart from the abomination that is Vista).
However, running Office 2008 on a mac is diabolical. There is lag when typing in word, lag going through slides and lags in other aspects of the software. So with this in mind i went to my...
Security is also best i guess.
Last night i was trying to make a transaction online with my HSBC Maestro card. It was on National Express to book a bus ticket from Canterbury to London. It was rejected twice in a row which was strange because i entered everything in correctly and it was rejected at the very last possible moment. This wasn’t the first time that something like this has happened to i booked the tickets using...
I’ve finally added a last.fm widget to my blog and it looks pretty good. On my other blogs whenever i added something it just made it all look very cluttered and not pleasant on the eyes. At least with this template it doesn’t. (Oh and i have also added it to my main Facebook page)
We got the Kille’s coming over soonish so i better shower and get dressed!
Underground service is ridiculous today. Circle line complete closure and district line partial closure. I needed either one of those 2 lines today! Grrrr! Instead I had to go to embankment then to tottenham court road to get to my destination of Loughton.
I was hoping to be home by 6:30. It’s now 6:01. Doesn’t seem likely now does it! Arrr well. Hope everyone is having a nice Easter...
Windows Problems
So check out this link here.
They are offering roll backs for people that purchase Window’s 7 when it’s released. First thing is to NOT offer Windows Vista. Just stick with XP or Windows 7. Windows 7 is basically Vista, fixed. Therefore anyone rolling back to vista will get a worse experience then 7.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about Windows 7. Makes me wonder if i...
Has anyone else noticed slight speed issues with Safari 4. If your Mac’s proccessor is doing intensive tasks Safari 4 hangs for a long time or even crashes. I don’t recall ever getting that with Safari 3 and I don’t get it with Firefox in the same situation…
Hmmm, I guess thats why it’s a beta.
Woody is coming to Canters
I am well aware how dodgy the title sounds. I couldn’t help myself. I thought it may attract some attention. Friday night is magic Mungo’s in good ole UKC and im dressing up as Woody from Toy Story for Emma Sankey’s birthday. Should be a lot of fun. I have my yellow(ish) shirt, my cowboy hat, my neck scarf thingy, cool belt with, not 1, but 2 guns!
Im ready to go baby. Pictures...
