The Only James goes beta

That’s right, we’re rolling back in time to the good old Web 2.0 days. All we need now is a beta badge to go with my work in progress theme.

As things stand at present I’ve got to tweak the footer as it’s unbalanced and I have a few other improvements to make including adding some clever navigation tools and adding/removing some padding and margins here and there.

Please let me know what you think of the new look and share any thoughts on how to make it better.

New Blog Theme

I have just replaced the modified K2 theme I have been using for quite some time with Grady. The theme still needs a bit of work and due to a bug in the latest development version of Wordpress I can’t readily modify the widgets in the Grady’s sidebar.

Please bear with me while I make the necessary changes and if you realy dislike the changes let me know. Maybe we’ll go back to the way things were.

Too many feeds! Bring in the Tumblr

I just want to clarify the current state of my online world. I have setup a Tumblr! powered app at http://log.jamesconroyfinn.com, which essentially reads everything I do online. This includes with Twitter updates, Flickr posts and anything that comes out of this blog. (more…)

Apologies and absence

I thought it appropriate to formalise an apology regarding my absence from the intertubes of late.

I have been diagnosed with gastritis and as a result have been away from my technological love. I’m still a Mac/UNIX fan boy and still have a fascination with all things technological, mathematical and technical. I just need a bit of time to recuperate and get back to fighting fitness.

Don Logan is pissed!

Holiday photos on Flickr!

My holiday photos from the family trip to Mallorca have been uploaded to Flickr! Check them out on Flickr!

The Original iPhone

I noticed a boxed mounted proudly atop a high shelf in work today. It looks like Apple have been working on the iPhone for longer than we thought! I’ve uploaded a couple of quick snaps that I took on my iPhone.

Check them out in their very own Flickr! set.

Leroy Jenkins!

I haven’t seen this video in ages. Cracked me up when I first saw it. I’ve done a few raids in the past and always laughed at how seriously some people took it. Leroy Jenkins!
