It's already 2009!
Well my blogging isn't going so well, I'm currently aiming for two blogs a year!
My lack of blogging is purely due to a busy work life and neglecting my web site
in my spare time.
These are just a few of the things that have been keeping me busy:
- I splashed out on a Samsung NC10 netbook which uses the Intel Atom, great
machine! If you need any help with your NC10 check out this forum.
- Had a first look at Microsoft Windows 7, which I managed to install on my NC10 dual
booting with Windows XP and Vista. Windows 7 ran very well, much more efficient
that Vista, and the new taskbar worked well on a small screen.
- I'm a Nintendo Wii fan; Call of Duty and Mario Kart have been added to my collection
which are very addictive.

ISP's....
Finding a good broadband supplier is hard, especially if you don't want to be
hit with a silly 'fair usage' policy...In the past I have struggled with
these fair usage policies so my aim was to find a fast, reliable ISP which don't
enforce a strict usage policy.
After researching the possible suppliers I opted in for O2 broadband paying £10
for upto 16mb....great price for the amount of bandwidth. After two months
of using O2 broadband the service has always been very quick, very high consistant
download speeds. Even the free wireless router that O2 send out has been great,
despite reading reviews that some users have had to change routers.

Welcome to my site!
This is the first entry on my new site, I'm currently in the stage of designing
and developing this site. I will be using this site as a blog site as well
as a personal profile area.
This site will be built in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 based on the ASP.NET 2.0
framework. Whilst developing my site I will be aiming for AA compliancy, AAA
compliancy is a future goal.
