Just a quick note to say sorry for the unstable feed. I changed it to point elsewhere and back again, so it gathered multiple entries quickly a few days in a row. I’ll stop doing that now!
Site News
It’s all about the test posts

Another test post. This time to test Echo, a real-time comment system that should pull comments from twitter/friendfeed and the “social web” as they happen in real time (if you purchase the “live” option). Could you please do me a favour and comment on this post (even to critisise the system) or reply to the tweet/post that sent you here so I can see if/how it works.
Cheers everyone! Hopefully I can be a guinea pig for everyone that follows me on Twitter to save you the cash if it doesn’t work as intended.
Site Direction?
July 28, 2009 by Screenbeard
This site was always just a place to practice my website building skills and publish something to attach to my name if anyone came looking for me. As I didn’t have a burning need driving me to write (other than my first post), I’ve struggled sometimes to find anything to write about.
That probably won’t change — I’m not a writer deep in my soul — but I’m hoping that as I begin my TAFE course I might find stuff to post more frequently. I’m going to study programming (beginning with JAVA), and I’m expecting to write about some of the things I’m learning. So let this be a warning to you if you visit here regularly (yes my three loyal readers, I’m talking to you), I may be posting programming stuff, including code bits, and expanding on what I’m learning as I go, so if you don’t get programming, or are a super-coder you may want to skim over my posts (or even better, correct me when I’m wrong).
Just a heads up.
Another Test Post

It’s getting silly really. I spend so much time updating this blog, without actually publishing anything. This is another test to test my new shortening service using Yourls. It should send a tweet out with my own url.
I’m working on a new theme though, so that’s something.
100 posts and an iPhone baby!
July 20, 2008 by Screenbeard
w00tI’m writing this, my 100th post, from my iPhone. It’s making me dizzy, as the screen jumps with every key press. I may not do this again till there is a native iphone app to do it with.
Congratulations to me anyway.
