On the right there you’ll see an example of a standard Geek in a festive mood.. be aware of the sideeffects of such behaviour which include lack of nice collander for long periods of time, or the waste of bandwidth on male Stripetease videos(check the wiki)

Ok, so we all saw the crazy Xbox Ping pong onna mousetrap tech demo many years ago, it was cool, it was jumpy and it was funny thinking “how cool would that be to do for real”… Well, some silly buggers have done something similiar but way more colourful…

Heya all, ive been working on that flippy out menu thing on the side there and ive improved it nicely. It now remembers what youve opened or closed and will do so for 28 days… horay for cookies. Hopefully it’ll work smoothly with no problems but we’ll see. taken me around 2 and half hours of work to get it actually working but i think its worth it. The next feature is for them to be move aroundable by dragging it aboot… but thats gonna be damn tricky.
Hope u like new feature…

A call out for all geeks involved with Bloggery Fun.
A few of us have been looking into setting up a Planet, this is basically a Blog feed aggregated from a group of other peoples blogs. With this it’ll be a whole lot easier to read peoples new posts without needing to mess about with visting lots of sites.
All we need for this to work is A) A domain (www.comscare.org we have already got) B)Website Space… we can use my user space for comsci (love uni) and C) We need to write the site which’ll do the work…
The php to aggregate all the feeds together should be easy enough, we’ve all got RSS or similar

Hey
I just thought i’d share my new job with people and get some feedback. Ive done the website additions and changes for the JustWaterUK.com website despite them not being online yet (there are in a test subfolder ;)) but ive been given a job to make a website for the Trading firm working in my office. Im making the whole site from scratch this time rather than just adding a page or two. I made a design in an hour or two and ive got it online, its REALLY beta atm, but i wanna get some feedback to make improvements.
Background:
The company sells CPU’s to various other traders around the world. They are always on the phone and use MSN
