Free Alternative Software To Commercial Programs
Posted on June 23rd, 2010 No commentsOver the last few years I have been increasing my use of free, open source alternatives to commercial software products for a number of reasons, mainly because of superior features or ease of use in the free products which assist my work, or in some cases because I want to avoid the budget signoff bureaucracy involved with purchasing new software programs (aka. Saving the company money – lol)

Alton Towers Review 2010
Posted on June 14th, 2010 No commentsI’m doing absolutely everything I can to avoid the World Cup football. In doing so we ended up at Alton Towers (handily a 30 minute drive from Hannah’s mum’s) on Monday

Thoughts on the prime ministerial debate
Posted on April 29th, 2010 No commentsI’m sad to say it, but I found Steve Jobs’ Thoughts on Flash more interesting than the ‘political-point-scoring’ being broadcast on the BBC. I’m glad that Steve has spoken out and answered his critics so well, but I wish David and Gordon would follow Apple’s lead and get on with ‘leaving the past behind’. Political Branding I got a leaflet about Mark Hoban through the post this evening

Hang out on the South Bank
Posted on April 10th, 2010 No commentsI took a trip up to London last Saturday and wandered along the South Bank in search of some good food. Sadly, there are surprisingly few inviting restaurants on that side of the river… In amongst the crowd, silly joggers and beams of fantastically warm sunshine, we came across Daniel Waples playing his hang. It’s an incredible instrument

Question: How does source control work in a non-distributed environment?
Posted on February 5th, 2010 No commentsAt our company we currently all work on one shared network drive. The source code is not under any kind of source control, which for me is a big no-no. I’d love to be able to set up SVN and us all work of separate repositories and just commit back to a trunk or branch, but our tech manager doesn’t agree.

Very Exciting – HipHop by Facebook
Posted on February 2nd, 2010 No commentsWell this evening Facebook have revealed what PHP developers globally have been speculating about and revealed their big secret . And boy, this could really change the landscape of PHP as we know it. I’m a great fan of compiling PHP for one reason or another, but I’ve never seen it reliably work.

New House & Growing Freyja
Posted on January 31st, 2010 No commentsI haven’t done a “personal” update for some time now, so I thought I’d briefly brush over our recent lives. The photo you can see on the left is the current state of our new house that is being built in the new Dickens Quarter development in Portsmouth

Strangers in the same boat – Christmas 2009
Posted on December 23rd, 2009 No commentsThis used to be the ‘hello world’ post. It’s taken from July to now – that’s 5 months – to pick a theme for my blog and then get around to editing it. I’m quite inclined to say that that’s pretty rubbish, but I won’t, because that’s the usual response I have to these kind of things.
