… texting without knowing cell phone numbers. After I decided to kill my Facebook page, enjoyed Google+ (which remains a bit desolate, compared to FB) and reverted to good ol’ emails, I’m now finding Twitter very useful for a number of reasons that I will explain below. 1. Newsfeed Twitter is the perfect news reader. [...]
I am thinking of changing the photo galleries here. I’m not very satisfied with the current system, but I struggle to find a decent, quick and easy photo gallery plug in for WordPress. I don’t have much time to spend building galleries and resizing –too many!– photos… *bored smiley* Any suggestions?
Last night I saw the last of the Harry Potter films, but I guess it would be better to wait a little before I post any detailed comment on it. I assume a lot of people still haven’t seen it, although I’m sure the hard core fans camped outside theatres world wide. I’m more of [...]
Maybe I should sort my photo galleries by season and track down climate changes in the Cotswolds. It was very amusing to watch journalists spread across the country, having to report on drought warnings… under the rain! This week has been one of the wettest since Winter, yet until 10 days ago we were prepared [...]
It’s never funny to keep track of bills and expenses in general, so even though I don’t have a luxurious monthly budget, I like to keep track of my savings and where exactly my money goes every month. Online banking has made this a lot easier. You just log into your bank account and if [...]
Spring has ‘sort of’ arrived to the UK. It is a bit warmer, but not always sunnier. Aside from some minor Spring cleaning, I’ve been crazy busy with work, so today I took the day off. I can still catch up during the weekend, before I head to another crazy week. I’m really looking forward [...]
I recently joined the Post A Day/Week 2011 challenge (see, The Daily Post) and I’ll post whenever I get the time, at least once a week. It’s going well so far. I like to write stuff during breaks at work, sipping coffee or tea, chatting with colleagues. One funny thing I realised today is that [...]
Do you have a favourite agenda? I don’t. I either find them too small to write on or too big to carry around. So now I have 2 small Moleskine agendas. One is very small, a Sky Blue X-small Daily Diary. I use it as “work calendar”. I don’t write much on it, mostly events. [...]
I finally decided to try to use the iPhone to update my blogs. I often get ideas for blog posts when I’m not at the desk, so I thought that maybe the WordPress application could come in handy. Well, I could easily link my wordpress.com hosted blogs (see, links at the bottom) but I kept [...]
A couple of weeks ago I noticed that Google has changed their image search layout/interface. I have to be honest, I am not sure I like it. Besides, what was wrong with the previous image search?? I really don’t understand why so many websites, and now Google search too, have grown so fond of these [...]
