Yeah, WordPress is like that isn't it?

At the end of the day though, it's a tool for publishing your thoughts without having to fight the software to get a post onto the page...

Two journals: 1 for "anonymous" and one for everything else.

On the "everything else" journal, have multiple RSS feeds: one per category.

i.e. Let the user worry about it. It's their problem, not yours.

Bloody Hell! A year's gone by already?!

Well done!

I'm still with Thunderbird for a reason...

I also have a recovery plan that works with my backups. I'm not convinced that you can restore a pop3 gmail backup back into a clean gmail account, but I could be wrong.

I wish I was as eloquent as you! You sum up a lot about how I feel towards my wife much better than I could ever express it myself.

Congratulations to you and your wife on three successful years!

So did I! Well, I did fence painting and lawn mowing... but it's definitely Spring!

Wow! That sounds like a lot of effort. Well done!

Can't see me making a party, even though I really need one!

"Then again, if you're using Wordpress you're either oblivious to bad code, or using it knowing that the code is bad as I am. "

*grin*

I know what you mean!

If I had enough time, I'd write my own blog software... So many things to do, so little time though!

Just looked a the NEXBlank - ugly, isn't it?!

Personally, I think the design and usability of the iPod family is fantastic.

There aren't any DRM issues with iPods. There are DRM issues with the iTunes Music Store.

I'm really glad it was a regular reader and not a drive-through clicker! Nice pic to choose for his father too!

It looks a bit "HDR"ish if you see what I mean. Is that a result of post processing?

It worked really well for that image I thought, even though I am generally not a fan of the effect.

As an aside, "reflected trees under blue skies" is my favourite of all your (non-studio) images so far :)

Congratulations! Though I was half-expecting you to go for a 5D.

Go for it ! Change is good.

Re: a schedule

I admire your optimism and high ideals on the amount of free time you think you have! Good luck!

I'm especially looking forward to the less-formal shots of Celeste.

Re: photo schedule - the first week

Rob... — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 12:14:01 -0000

*grin*

I didn't count the first week as that one's a gimme as you're all fired up. Being out of town/ borked laptop is reasonable excuse for last week, so this week and next week are the key weeks to make this plan a habit.

Some of us are watching...

(I liked "cold skin, dead eyes" best from that week btw)

Excellent idea! Some of your tweets now make more sense :)

I 100% agree with Cynthia and and ramona - if you're parents are willing, then go there until you can offload the house.

Re: Nikon Announces New DSLR and Lenses

Rob... — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 06:30:02 -0000

I would have liked the 16-85 to have been a bit faster at the long end tbh.

I agree about the line up. It would be a good idea of Nikon discontinued the 18-70 to tidy it up a bit.

Sounds interesting, I'll have to check it out.

I'm surprised you don't use Nostalgy for filing in Thunderbird - makes life much easier. (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ad...)
