web design

Wurk, wurk, wurk…

….or rather, the lack of it. Had one enquiry about web design this last week, on Monday, wanting to know my prices. So I told her and haven’t heard anything since. She’s undoubtedly gone off to find somebody cheaper. It’s difficult knowing what prices to charge. An elderly astrologer whose judgement I respect once told […]

Feeling Quite Happy…

I’m getting more involved in Facebook – I’m now in the networks of two daughters and a son-in-law. Nice to be able to keep up with family like this. For the last 24 hours, I’ve had a headache. It’s much better now, but was pretty bad yesterday. I had the spend the day lying down; […]

….meeping about web design and stuff. Getting on with the design for the new online Transit, I’ve been looking at CMSs that are specifically for online magazine/newsletters. WordPress, once again seems to win hands down, with at least three themes that are suitable. I’ve looked at a standalone Drupal spin-off called Prosepoint, but its still […]

Riding Out The Opposition…

For me, the big event of the day was an exact astrological opposition between Uranus and Saturn. So I’ve avoided getting involved in any celestial pile-ups by spending my time at the pooter, struggling to get to grips with Joomla. My long-awaited Building Websites With Joomla 1.5 arrived last week, but I was too busy […]
