Redirecting the Internet

I have no archive of my old websites. What you see here today is the result of many (many!) years of iteration and improvement. Ten years ago, on 12 October 2003 I attempted to get the search engines of the world to link back here, by listing the old URLs where my website has lived.Continue reading Redirecting the Internet

The shareware app that just won’t quit

ShutOff 2000 works better in Windows 7 than it does in Windows Vista. I think it's awesome. I can even run Visual Basic 6 in Windows 7 without resorting to Virtual XP.

Pythonesque

Last night Marinus took me to see Pythonesque at Montecasino in Fourways. He managed (with my help) to keep it a secret right to the point where we sat down, which is admirable considering that I paid for the tickets and signed for them at the box office 🙂

Happy new year!

The subject line says it all, but here's to 2009. In an interesting bit of news, the 30GB Microsoft Zune player is affected by a feature bug which stops it working past 2008/12/31. Har har.
