Had a housewarming party (finally) on Saturday - the theme was Kids TV and we watched a load of old 80s childrens TV programmes - Knightmare being the highlight for me!

Here’s a list of extensions I use regularly (for work and play) and are well worth a look at.
* Web Developer - great for debugging HTML/CSS, forms, etc.
* keyconfig - lets you remap your keyboard shortcuts.
* Retro Find - search within textareas/forms - the default search doesn’t work (still an outstanding bug as far as I know)
* Adblock - block all manner of annoying advertising really easily
* Greasemonkey - rewrite pages as they come into your browser using javascript - super powerful and geeky
* Platypus - edit pages visually and save the changes as a Greasemonkey script
* TinyURL Creator - creates shortcut urls
* Adsense Notifier - shows how much you’ve earned through Adsense in the bottom corner of your browser
* Autofill - automatically fill in HTML forms
* Stumbleupon - social bookmarking site
* Sage - lightweight RSS aggregator
Just installed a new spam filtering plugin - hopefully will get rid of that nasty spam.

Basically I’m trying to sell a copy of Act! Professional I have (unused - 1 user licence) which Dad bought for his business - I pointed out that it was pretty rubbish and developed a more useful CRM for him in MS Access. So I want to flog this box (which is worth over a hundred quid)
A couple of days ago I got this nice message through Ebay.
Bought this neat gizmo a few days ago. Allows you to hook up hard disks, cdroms, dvd writers, etc. (including laptop hard disks) through USB - great if you have old hard disks kicking around that you want to use, but can’t be bothered installing properly in your PC (in my case - I have a 20gig disk, which is very noisy - so I use it for backups etc.) Have a look here.
Found this great utility - free, and open source - to let you visually inspect your disks and see where all the space is going.

Thought it was about time for a fresh design. Hope you like.
