Twitter Muted

Took me ages to work it out.  Normally when I post to my site it updates my Twitter.

I had changed my Twitter password and forgot to update it here.

Titan Crane

We were supposed to be going to see the Titan Crane on the Clydebank today.

Unfortunately it was such a miserable day we never even braved out the front door.

We will try and get there next weekend instead.

Connected On The Move

I finally figured out how the e-mail works on my mobile phone.

I could always receive messages on my phone but I could never reply or send.

It was an off the cuff remark on a forum post that triggered the lightbulb moment. I can only send via my ISP’s mail server if I am connected via my ISP! Obvious with hind sight !

All I have to do is send all my messages via the Orange mail server.

Works a treat!

Jousting

Had a great day out in Linlithgow today.

Historic Scotland organised a medieval re-enactment weekend this weekend.

On display was: Jousting, swordplay, quarterstaffs, and general fighting.

The weather stayed dry and we had a great day out.

Benidorm 2007

Not my first choice in holiday. My father in law took unwell so we had to fly out at short notice to be with them.

The care received in the hospital was excellent, very friendly and very professional.

Didn’t do a lot of the normal “holiday” stuff but of course I had my camera with me so you can see my Benidorm Photos on Flickr.

It felt really weird, half of the population was half my age, the other half were twice my age !

It was also way too hot for me, over 35degrees most days, there was even one evening when it was sitting at 30degrees at midnight; not pleasant.

Everyone is home now and slowly improving, except for me, back at work and slowly going mad, so back to normal it is !

Firefox Plugin – PicLens

I’m not usually one for shouting about software, but I have just installed the PicLens addin for Firefox.

This addin allows you to view all of the images on a web page in a full screen browser with slideshow functionality.

Great for Flickr junkies like me !

Web 2.0 Blah Blah Blah

I’m not sure that I “beleive” in the whole Web 2.0 social everything hype; but I’m not shy to try things.

I’m currently investigating FaceBook and Twitter.

If everything goes to plan then creating this page should appear in my Twitter.

Here Goes !

I have created the page https://rossgoodman.com/social-networking/ to track my progress.
