a bit like Web 2.0, but without the reflections

I just woke up from a dream where I was

I just woke up from a dream where I was testing something that puts hands on photos of people or things that don’t have them already. I tried it with some photos of Lisa, and it worked great! But she has hands. I don’t get it.

I’ve got a new gallery (again)

After I got so excited the other week at integrating Picasa into my gallery here, it’s all change again! I’m using the built-in WordPress gallery now, which I didn’t know existed until the other day. It means that I can’t use Google’s free disk space and data transfer, but on the other hand when I go onto Solar Host, most of my website will actually be powered by them! I’d prefer to go with Athenaeum, because I’ve spoken to Jamie there before, but sadly they’re their (did I just write that?) charges are a bit on the high side.

I need to add in a list of tags that only show photos; at the moment you can only look at photo sets by date (no big problem with only three entries). It’s good to experiment with mixing the content of the website together, so the photo sets aren’t in a gallery as such. You don’t need to post to say you’ve put new photos up, they’re just there on the home page!

And then there are back buttons.  My websites never seem to end up getting back buttons.  I will change this.

“Web 2.0 standards”

Clients start to request ‘Web 2.0 standards’. I have no idea what that means but it usually involves tagging, ‘friends’ and gratuitous use of JavaScript.

Moblogging: it’s official; Wordpress 2.6.1

The Official Authority on Everything Everywhere that is Wikipedia recognises “Moblogging“, so I didn’t invent a new word. Shame.

I’ve just upgraded to Wordpress 2.6.1, using the Automatic Upgrade plugin for the first time. Even though it backs everything up first, I held my breath; but it worked! Which is just as well really, because when I looked at the backup ZIP files it had downloaded, they were empty!

After encouraging Maisy out from behind the sofa, I put

After encouraging Maisy out from behind the sofa, I put her back in her house! But she was really trying to get out, so I let her out to run around on her cupboard. She slipped off, and as I tried to grab her I ended up flicking her off to the left! She’s fine though :) . In her house, with the door blu-taced shut. I’m in bed, mobile blogging, it’s the way forward! “Moblogging” – I surely can’t be the first to come up with that word :) goodnight!

(link added from computer the next day!)

Climb to the Stars – Stephanie Booth

The Stars are out of reach
So far above
In deep dark Space
Too far for me, too far for you
And so we crawl upon the earth
Today, tomorrow
Still we crawl

Until the wise man comes to say
“I climbed and climbed
For years and years
And I have seen
The glow of Truth”

As always in this kind of tale
There are the ones who crawl along
Today, tomorrow
Crawl and crawl

But there are also those who halt
Who lift their heads
Who stand upright
Who see that there is more to see
- and more to be -
Than just the ground below the Stars

I’m back

I’m back! I’ve moved onto a different host for a few days while the other one sorts their problems out. This is a little slow at loading, but not too bad at all.
