Gosh this blog looks terrible in Internet Explorer (at least in version 6), not that I’d advocate using IE unless you have to; especially now that Firefox 3 is out!
Speaking of which, so is Opera 9, and IE8 is in beta. New browsers galore!
Anyway, will fix, gentle reader(s).
OK I admit that the title of this post is slightly hyperbolic, but I’ve just installed and started using PmWiki to replace my well-worn, dog-eared copy of ASPWiki that I have loved so well since about 2003, I think. And, I’ve gotta say that I love it! Out of the box it’s simple [...]

My shiny, expensive (for a 17″) TFT is being a moron and going bright for about a second before turning off its backlight so I can’t see a thing. I think it’s under warranty…I hope it’s under warranty.

At Chermside shopping centre north of Brisbane yesterday (Sunday), which has recently been expanded with a bunch of new shops and food places, including a dreamy donuts.
