I checked prices in Tandy to see how much we’d saved by buying headphones from Aldi instead of a ‘normal’ retail outlet. The cheapest wireless phones in Tandy were $100. In Harvey Norman they were $250 and above. I tried out the $50 ones I bought from the supermarket and they work fine. As far … More A little more on headphones.
I have, or rather had, a Blogger account. Oddly enough, when I visit other peoples blogs, like The Phantom’s the Blogger system recognises me as ‘skyrider’ and lets me post. However, when I try to access the blog itself it won’t accept the password! Easy as you might think… get then to reset it and … More Bugger Blogger and their lack of support!
As said repeatedly over the last six months… the oldies are here. I might also have mentioned that they seem to like watching programmes that drive me bananas. Things like Judge Judy, Weakest Link and Eggheads litter my evening viewing… tho that gives me an excuse to play with my new toy… this machine… so … More Phoning my head.
Yet again the Phantom has appeared from the mists of cyberworld, and rescued our losat posts from vanishing into nothingness. I’m sure the world at large will be eternally grateful that these displays of my erudite inanity and excruciatingly unfunny witticisms will be preserved for just that little bit longer 🙂 They are on their … More Thanks to the Phantom – again!
Finally started using an RSS feed to send messages to mysself. With luck this means I’ll always have a backup of some sort if the worst should happen… again 🙂
Currently it seems I *could* publish text… but not upload pictures to their proper folders. Something was changed in the structure when it was reinstated – but it’s fixed now. Good support at AussieHQ!!. If you’re interested… which you probably aren’t but I’ll tell you anyway… I asked that the space I was renting to … More Hmmm….
Sorry to do this again but my host made a bit of an error last night and accidentally deleted the site. If you have any of the posts from the 14th onwards… e.g. as an RSS feed… I’d appreciate you forwarding them to me so I can reinstate them. In the meantime I’m taking steps … More Call for old posts?
I first organised a domain for myself back in 199?? The site was just 5 Mb shared space with mailserver.com and came with a useful little address. Soon enough we outgrew it and so I bought others. One of the first was http://www.talktidy.com which for years served as the abode of all my mail addresses. … More Changing the host with the most…. cost.
Well it’s the next big thing so I thought I’d join up… I’m registered as Bynge Oh…. well why not?? 🙂 I decided (luckily as it turned out) not to cough up any cash… and then discovered… oh joy… it doesn’t support Windows Vista yet. Typical eh? By the way… the wife is standing next … More Second Life?
After the marathon session with the PDA software I finally got some help. I’d wrote on Monday (in desperation) to iMate who gave me an Australian address to contact and I sent them a mail yesterday. Within a few hours they’d responded and this morning I had a call from a tech. The machine is … More All's finally well with the PDA
