Sorry to hear that the web is byting back (oh dear, poor joke there...). Do you get "dead
mouse hand" as well, where your mouse hand goes cold, thanks to leaning on the desk when
browsing for a long time? Or is that just me?

And I thought that you were just "off colour" with a cold...

Well it looks great, but doesn't work on any Mac browser that I have immediately to hand.
(Safari, IE or Netscape.) :-( LOVE the photo which Akirno took of you; the best yet that I've
seen online! (Discounting the one with the pink wig, of course...)

Is it just me, or are the people who have defaced these adverts overdoing it a bit? I really can't understand what is wrong with a company which makes sexy female underwear promoting their product, by showing it "in context". Ok, the women look a bit ditzy, but why is it sexist? Men don't moan when a half naked model advertises Calvin Klein wear, so why is this different?

Re: Do you say “blog” or “bee-log”?

blog, as in we-blog. Never hear bee-log before.

Hurrah! Well done etc. etc.! Does your speech recognition software still work, or is it on holiday?!

Still not Quicktime- or WMP-compatible, I'm afraid. (Mac and Win 2000)

"... went on a date..." : did you try to slip that one in there quietly? Welcome back!

Re: Mainstream

Mark Howells — Sun, 28 Dec 2003 04:51:00 -0000

Just because you share a common appreciation with other people, just because you won some things which other people own, doesn't make you unoriginal. Being in the mainstream is only to be feared if you are there because you think you should be, rather than because you want to be.

You are original. You are unique.

I am desperately trying to get a public version of my own photo CMS (which powers my own site) ready for general use - if only I could find the time to finish programming! You're welcome to use it when I've finished.

Not up to date with pricing structures, but maybe you'll have a better service level with another host. Your site's offline quite a lot at the moment...

Re: La Suisse, Tiers-Monde du joueb?

Mark Howells — Mon, 02 Aug 2004 06:40:50 -0000

I'm probably going to regret saying this, but I don't see where the problem is with this article. I've read it through twice to make sure I'm reading it correctly, but as far as I can see, everything the journalist and interviewees are saying is correct. There are far fewer bloggers in Switzerland than in other countries, particularly the UK and US. As to whether they "get blogging" or not, is a moot point: what is there to "get"? I think that the "community" has been summarized as well as possible, give the fact that it's such a brief article.

Would love to be a part of Blog Pride, but am unlikely to be able to hike over without a car mid-week. Will pencil it in anyway! Bonne chance!

The spirit is keen and willing, but I'm going to have to sit this one out, too, I'm afraid. I'm off to Scotland on Monday and have just *so* much to do before I go: including sleep, as I have to be up at 5.30 to catch the train to Geneva! Will try my hardest to be at the next one! Bis xx

Re: Night Jewellery

Mark Howells — Sun, 31 Oct 2004 16:04:58 -0000

Not that I am much of one for jewellery or watches, but yes, I remove that which I wear before going to bed. Some kind of thing about breaking it or strangling myself I guess :-)
