WebIRC

Sunday, April 30th, 2000

Still havn’t fixed the WebIRC problem, but *have* managed to fix my personal problem of using 5 differant browsers in 3 locations (NS4, NS6 & IE at home, NS at University, and IE at work) and having nowhere that links to all the places I go. So I have put them here on the new Aquarionics Portal. It’s a bit Rough & Ready, it isn’t Lynx compatible, and there are a few links missing, but there it is.

Ok, since the specs for the WebIRC applet have changed (I…

Ok, since the specs for the WebIRC applet have changed (I eventually had to download a new version) it may be a few days before I get ’round to putting it back up.

In other news, the newest New & Cool thing to the le… no, the right of this text (Sorry, I re-designed the interface to make it load faster (specifically, to make it load the Google & C-Net logos (which are on another server that is even slower than Aquarionics) load *after* the main content table) before discovering that the entire site now doesn’t work with the new Netscape 6 preview. Damnation & hellfire) Now I’ve got distracted, where was I?

Oh yes, In other news, the newest New & Cool thing to the le^w right of this text has just confirmed my “True Color” (blasted american spellings) is, in fact, the colour of my bedroom, Webpage, Desktop, jeans, t-shirt and socks. In fact, it says this:

You’re BLUE; the most soothing color in the spectrum. The color of a clear summer sky, or a deep, reflective ocean. Blue has traditionally symbolized trust, solitude, and loyalty. You are most likely a contemplative person who values time spent alone. When it comes to friends, you would rather connect deeply with a few people than have a bunch of loose acquaintances. You probably have a calming presence that attracts people to you. Cool and collected, you rarely overreact. Instead, you think things through before coming to a decision. Your level-headed and thoughtful approach is patently blue.

So that’s all right then.

Eeek, Broken links. Not only is Play still dead (you’d think I’d have time to finish it, given that I have nothing better to do) buy the #Eddings/#Sephy’s Kitchen IRC App (and if you don’t know what that does, I’m cannot tell you :-) is gone, and I’ve lost my Backups, a short panic revealed I had left it on another server. *sigh* don’t you just love it when a plan comes together?

My parents have abandoned’d me in charge of a seventeen year old, a thirteen year old and a four year old for three days. The only upside to this is that the four year old is a dog. I still have to make sure my brothers don’t kill a) one another, b) themselves, or c) me.

to this end, I am surfing the internet and drinking tea. I can do this babysitting stuff :-)

Watched DVD’s, Played games, read Lord of the Rings. Having a week off uni gives me time to slob around in style :-)
Also created a new webpage for my new program, Quoth.
