Random

Nothing much has been going on of late, except for the usual staying up late, and catching up on a lot of TV. I have however, discovered the joys of a few things. Like needing multiple versions of the same program because other programs haven't gotten it together and all agreed to use the one version. I tried cleaning up my harddrive to reclaim some space (I'm a neat freak when it comes to my HD), and spent the rest of the day putting my operating system back together(I don't use Windoz, however the image illustrates the concept).

I have however discovered the joys of RSS and BitTorrent. Old news for some, way older news for others. I only got into BT after my brother decided that the internet wasn't fast enough for us at home and upgraded it 1.5MBit/sec which isn't too bad. So maybe having a MMORPG addict for a sibling isn't too bad. I also refuse to support the way commercial television destroys TV shows. So it's a fun thing to have.

RSS too is a fun toy. There have been problems with standards, however that's all settling down now, and it's convenient to have all my favorite blogs and other sites who have RSS feeds all in one handy to reach place. Made me pull out Thunderbird again.

So I am off in 9 (nearly 8) days. If you desperately want to contact me, my mother or Emily knows how to get in touch with me. But it had better be good, as they don't like us taking personnel calls. In fact the wonderful powers that be confiscate our mobiles.

So if I don't see you, or post before I leave (which has a 50/50 chance of happening), have a great 6 months. I'll see you when I get back.

[edit 25/01/07] Austin Powers is cool! Enough said. Also I'm scheduled to be finished by the 29/07/2007, so until then farewell. [/edit]
