I was just meandering along to my trusty old about:config settings in Firefox 3 when I was confronted with a **”Here be dragons” message…

Yesterday, I decided to start looking around for a cat, and Battersea Dogs and Cats Home came up in conversation. So, between episodes of Star Trek Enterprise (yesterday was a “sit in front of TV all day and do nothing for a change” day) Mary and I took a look at their website.

Featuring over 12,000 original [...]

I just discovered an interesting little site called Blip. Imagine Twitter. Now, change it slightly so you can preview / listen to music everyone else is listening to, update people on what music you’re listening to, and add a status message. I’m excited.
