Sure as there’s a sun, (I’m gonna be the 1)
Well it’s been a great week, I got my hands dirty with the new Mono website and made myself Ricky’s bitch. A position a bot could only dream of. It’s looking good and I’m hoping that it’ll be all done, all dusted in the next fortnight or so.
We had a good meeting with Langs in Glasgow on their new web design and that went well too, working out content. This week is looking sweetly hectic with interviews being held on Thursday for our new member of the team. Not a developer, someone else. If you are looking at this blog candidates (and I sincerely hope you are….) then see you Thursday!
Dating website is getting passed to Allan to work his magic after Jamie sprayed his mojo over the pages. That should be up soon too.
I’m going back to Prince lyrics as the inspiration for the titles of my blogs. I have no imagination.
Been playing with a couple of wee things. First up is Google Talk which is ok, it’s another IM client. ooo. Next is a crazy wee app for visualising your web statistics from Visitor Ville. We had a right laugh on Friday watching people coming off teh Google bus and taking a taxi around our website.
Another way people are looking at visualising information is at Gvisit. You can see where people have come from in biscuitmedia’s website by going to here. It’s pretty cool but doesn’t seem to be wholly accurate. Fun though.
Can I also say that this software has made me so much more productive. I love this device, so simple, so clever, so needed……
Top notch weekend, finished Season 5 of The West Wing which I really enjoyed. It did start of a wee bitty wobbly with everyone fighting each other but that quickly passed to some really good stories. Continunity dodesn’t seem to be a big concern but the acting easily made up for it. Watching CJ vs The Muppets is worth the admission alone.
Also saw the last two episodes of House. I love House, it’s getting past the ‘illness of the week’setups nad really adding some emotion. I hate cliffhangers and was delighted that House didn’t go down that route. What it did do (whcih is so much better than a cliffhanger) is add some spice to make the next season well worth watching. Hugh Laurie, you’re a god in my eyes.
Talking of Gods, Jamie’s on holiday for two weeks. You’ll miss his blog. You know you will.
Glasgow’s leaves are falling off the trees. This is not good nor desirable. It means that summer’s over. I love autumn though and looking forward to O.D.ing on freshly juiced apples and pears. Chestnuts too.
Nearly six, must get back to the magic.
Watch the Roads!!!!!

Man that sucks about Jamie being on holiday. Well…not for him. He always posts cool things to check out.
Temptation Blocker? Whatever happened to good old fashion self-control? lol

Freshly juiced apples and pears? Ming is apple/pear green with envy! We don’t have autumn here. Just hot, hotter, hot, not quite as hot and then hot again. Autumn seems like such a lovely concept, one which I have yet to experience!
I LOVE the temptation blocker! What a fantastic idea! Thanks for sharing!
We do have autumn here. It’s my favorite time of year because the marshes and wild grape-vines as well as other flora all turn a wonderful, warm gold. Which is why this place is called the Golden Isles.
I got a real hoot out of Temptaion Blocker. Great idea.
We’re making room for evacuees all the way here in little Midway, Georgia. Some say they’ll never go back. They have some very interesting things to say about the situation, I can tell you. I’m trying to get my butt in gear for a little project to raise money for disaster relief.
On the good news side, I’m finally getting a grandson! Sorry, I don’t think they’ll go for naming him Stewart. My son is threatening to name him Manchild. Poor guy has been drowning in a sea of estrogen, you see. We spent the day with him over the weekend and watched bald eagles explode snowy egrets.
I’ve been checking out publishers lately and found some that look pretty good. In that regard, we shall see what we shall see.
Lovin’ the blog, BMG! Again, it’s good to see Bicuit getting better and better. You get major attaboys for this. Obviously you’ve put a lot of blood, sweat, tears and love into your efforts. It’s great to see it paying off.
