Not sure if there’s any truth in it, but he said that Microsoft had just announced ‘Windows Live Writer’, which he described a a simple online wordprocessor.
Well I’m at a loss if [...]
Is it me or do a lot of websites these day bear a great resemblence to Mac OSX? Application boxes with beveled edges, lots of light shading, aqua style buttons and crystal effects on almost everything.
In today’s line up I give you the new Yahoo!, ZapZap, the pinstripe PageFlakes.
As the desktop and web continue to [...]
What a tremendous film. For sheer feel good factor (which I assume that this was trying to achieve) Superman Returns is spot on. Brandon Routh takes the role brilliantly I feel. He even sounds like Christopher Reeve in some parts, especially as Clark Kent. A fitting tribute, I think.
So the action is lacking, but the [...]

What am I talking about? Trend Anti-Virus on Windows Vista, ofcourse! Since installing the beta of Trend’s PC-Cillin suite on my Vista Beta 2 PC the whole experience has become, frankly unusable. Explorer.exe eats about [...]
It didn’t take long for a site to appear.
Now England fans alike can have a single place to visit to get the lowdown on their ‘favourite’ Portugese winger.
I posted my question to Yahoo! Answers recently….
“What will it take for England to win a penalty shootout?”
I’ll choose the best answer sometime tomorrow. Particularly liked the ‘larger nets and smaller goalie’ idea.
In answer to my own question I think it’s bottle. ‘Get it on target’ appeared to be the plan, but with no reckoning [...]
