New Google webhosting service

Want a free hosted web site of your own? Google Page Creator is now in beta at the Google Labs and if you already have a Google Account (anyone with Gmail or AdWords accounts basically) then you can sign up for this program. I haven’t signed up for it yet. I am considering it as…

DBP *HAS* to go this time!!!!

I know its basically been forever since I posted anything to do with NZ Politics at all, but I thought this was rather important. To tell the truth, I first heard about it on the radio over the weekend and it was being discussed last night on my way home from the workshop. In fact,…

The new Lara Croft – Mandatory drooling please!

Sorry Angelina, but after seeing the new Lara Croft, you’re definitely not my pick for the role ever again. Can you say HOT! Absolutely Gorgeous! This has to be the best pick I have seen of a new Lara. Even better, she’s a real English born and bred specimen. Boys (and girls I guess) ;-)…

Excellent night for gaming.

Sorry, but this is going to be an absolutely boring post about tonights gaming session in World of Warcraft. ;-) I know I’ve been exceptionally lax lately in posting anything of value or merit, but I’m on a rather good high tonight after the game and its not often that playing on the usual server…

How rude!

Terms of Service said to give 30 days notice, so I did. Their response? Cut me off straight away, before I even had a chance to back up everything. Oh, and then the funny part was they cut off my account but replied to an email address hosted by that account. So how does one…

Blah blah blah blah… Loads of crap mostly.

Hows it? Anything interesting happening in the wide world? No? ;-) Oh… Politics… Nah… Parliament will be nothing but a joke for the first half of this year and I’ve already decided I’m not going to bother with it for now. “Bring back English” indeed. Some of those MPs would do well to learn the…

Save Google Talk conversations to your GMail account

I was checking my Gmail this evening after watching American Hotrod (one of two shows I make an effort to watch, the other being American Chopper) and I noticed something new. You can now save your Google Talk chat conversations to your Gmail account for later reference. And it happens automatically. Seriously… Absolutely fantastic. Sure…

Email wars and VoIP wars and its all rumbling

Now, because I’m often getting told off for making my comments on other peoples blogs longer than the original post itself, I decided I’d write my reply here simply so that I couldn’t be accused of it again. ;-) Also, I digress significantly from Mike’s original post so its probably more appropriate here anyway ;-)…

I HATE WINDOWS!

I hate windows. I really really really hate Windows. My monitor finally gave up the ghost today. Completely gone. The top half folded in to a line across the middle of the screen, and then the bottom half decided to join it. Now monitor go bye bye. It was old anyway. Had to set the…

Two Days Feral

As I mentioned in the comments of my previous post, I have respec’d my Druid in WoW to a mostly Feral spec’d hybrid. Was it worth it? Absolutely. This thing is a killer. In cat form, it now does over 85 DPS before the skills. In bear form it soaks up the damage so well,…
