13/8/08, 11:06 AM Branding - who needs it? Perhaps not me - but I took a plunge back into web geekdom today and discovered little tiny images called "favicons". These little pics appear at the top of your web browser next to the website address and serve to add alittle image branding. Plus they are completely customisable. So I gave it a go - and now, voila! Take a look at the top address bar while visiting Fuggled.co.uk and you'll see (hopefully) a little green 'f '. Exciting huh! ... well, there's more. I then went into super-geek mode and tried out making a favicon for the iphone . Nothing too special, but it worked, and here's the screen shot to prove it. So - go out, buy an iphone, visit my site and save the icon to your phone (or I'll have spent the last hour wasting my time....)

11/8/08, 10:01 PM Nate, lead singer from The Format (the band that brought you the climax to to the soundtrack of Moving McAllister - Swans) has been working away at his new project called 'Fun'. Here's the letter he sent out to his fans:
 Hi. My hope is that you are reading this because you are interested. My hope is that you are reading this because you have been waiting. The last time I wrote was when i had the unfortunate task of informing you that The Format had broken up. I must admit, it’s still kind of a touchy subject for me. I wasn’t ready to give up music. I had a handful of songs that I was convinced were the best songs I’d written and I don’t think that I would have been able to live with myself if I had just left them to evaporate somewhere in the back of my mind. I remember being on tour with Andrew Dost and just being blown away at his ability to play almost every instrument with ease and bonding over our love for Weezer b-sides and soon realised Andrew and I were going to make a record... (blah blah blah)... And I am so thankful for all of the support I’ve received from you guys over the last seven years and over the last seven months. So I really want this new band to be a celebration of the things we love and what it takes to accomplish and keep them. I can’t wait to keep doing this with Jack and Andrew and I am so fortunate to hopefully be a part of you, the listeners, lives. I’m not going anywhere. Why should you? Ladies and gentlemen... fun. www.myspace.com/fun P.S. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU LISTEN LOUD. | [ 0 trackbacks ] | permalink | ( 3 / 552 )

10/8/08, 06:59 PM I went to a family reunion this weekend to see the long lost second cousins twice removed, and had the pleasure of staying in the kitschest B&B in the country. As someone has already suggested - only a teasmaid would make this more complete!

3/8/08, 01:11 PM Hanna went through her father's old slides from back in the 70's and found some shots of his mountaneering days in Scotland, and holidays in Finland. These two pictures stood out the most for me - especially seeing as back then you wouldn't know what you had managed to capture until after the film was developed.
