After last years rather interesting 'Fire' themed winter festival in Newcastle/Gateshead, this year the theme was 'Glow'. Well on Saturday night we finally managed to get out and wander around following the 'Glow Trail'. I have to say I love it when these kind of things are on.

Well, I've just installed the Performancing Plugin for firefox. And I have to say, so far it kicks ass! Having a split screen interface from within firefox in which I can type my blog posts, make notes, post to any blog I want to (wordpress, blogger, movabletype etc), all the time being able to search [...]
I read Eric Sink's blog, cause I find what he writes to be slightly humourous and technically interesting (a good combination in my mind). I do actually use the SourceGear Vault client, for the Flickr.Net API Library for which we got it free (as its an open source application). I don't consider I've used it [...]
