Protecting your site’s copyright
Today I’ve embarked on a course of action that I’ve not been provoked to do before today – persuing a copyright infringement. My popular article on how to add CyanogenMod to a Lenovo A1 tablet has been ripped off by another site named TOP Tablet PC. They have copied my article entirely but removing any [...]
The Coming Months
Expect to see much change on the site in the coming months, although initially it may be the opposite. I am currently looking into a new design for the site but, unlike before, it won’t be one of my own – but rather designers who know better than I do I’m moving towards a more [...]
Site changes – all my personal posts have gone!
A number of years ago now this site started off as my personal blog. Politics, news and general rants were the topics, with the occasional review of tech products that I’d bought. In time the latter started to take over and my new-found interest in writing WordPress plugins. As a result the site has become [...]
Blog review of 2011

Designing WordPress & How to Build a Better Blog
I recently came across John O’Nolan, a UK based core member of WordPress specialising in the UI, because of a plugin that he’s released, named UI Labs . This offers experimental WordPress admin UI features and is a great way for John to try out and get feedback for his ideas. I have it installed and am [...]
Site Changes
Since the beginning of the year I’ve been working on a revised version of the site. More than just a theme change, this has been a review at every site component. I’m now nearing the end of this work and will launch the new site design soon. However, I thought I’d take the opportunity to [...]

Beeb See Me 2
I missed this at the time – I also got a mention (and more links) on the BBC Internet Blog weekly round-up . …blogger David Artiss was pleasantly surprised that he had some BBC bods commenting on his Wii post and more so that we’d linked to him from the blog

BlogCampUK 2012
On Saturday I attended BlogCampUK, a free workshop for bloggers. Organised by Tots100 it was, understandably, full of “mummy bloggers”. Indeed, of the 120 bloggers there, I suspect about 4 were men (when assembled in a single room it was like playing “Where’s Wally” when looking for the male contingent). All of this meant that there [...]
