  • Podshow+ Profiles

    I’ve spent a while messing about with my BTpodshow (or Podshow+ or whatever it end up being called!) profile, and for ages I haven’t been able to work out how to edit the “About Me” text. I’ve been pulling my hair out over it (well, metaphorically at least). At last I’ve worked out how. You…

  • MacHeist

    Having just moved house, and having just packed all my books and CDs, I decided that I really ought to catalogue them.

  • First Post

    I’ve set up this blog so that I can write about anything and everything that I have wanted to recently. My blogging started with Past Thinking (as of 2021 no longer active – archive available), which is rapidly becoming a blog that is focussed upon heritage issues related to technology.
