Hello, and welcome back, my avid readers! If that last break in transmission didn't put you off then nothing will!
University is all finished with, I got myself a 3rd class BEng (hons), which should help me to get a job doing SOMETHING... I'm not quite sure yet what, but we'll see. The graduation ceremony was fun and I should have pictures up sometime soon.
Talking of pictures, I've just gone and bought myself a digital camera, using a bit of my overdraft... *cough* So I should be uploading pictures a-plenty... Maybe...
I was thinking about entirely redoing my website, but I couldn't work up the motivation to write myself an entirely new cgi based system, so I went searching for site management systems already available. All the ones I found that looked semi-decent required SQL though, and I don't have access to an SQL database on my current host. I pondered setting one up on oscar, but I suspect that the traffic could get quite high (I think these systems store all articles and such-like in the database) and if oscar went down for any reason then the entire site would die, which isn't too good really. So that was that idea out the window, and I'm still not really in the mood for coding an entire site.
That's all for now. I was on a roll, writing away like a man possesed (went and saw The Evil Dead last night, it was pretty good), but then my parents came home from holiday and put me off my stride. I'll just have to make sure I don't leave it for 4 months again... :)
