WordPress 3.2

I’ve just upgraded this blog, and several of my other sites (diary, Game Over, Yeah!!, etc.) to WordPress 3.2. It’s quite a major change, and there have been many reports of it breaking sites. Fingers crossed all is currently well, as I can’t see anything too out of place. Please let me know if that isn’t the case for you! For what it’s worth, the new dashboard looks nice, but I miss the “New Post” link in the top right …

The Best of Comment Spam #2

Lets have a little look at what spam Akismet has caught for me recently, yes? Hey guys, Do you want to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 full movie online? It is not released yet but you can watch it already! Uh, no thanks! This has made my day. I wish all psotigns were this good. All my psotigns are this good. Whatever they are. Thanks so much with regard to giving us an update on this …

The Spending So Far

Last year, as well as tracking all the games I’d played, I also tracked all the games I’d bought. At the end of the year, I’d spent £590.32. Not bad. I’m tracking expenditure this year too, and, since we’re almost half way through the year, I thought I’d have a quick peek to see how I’m doing. £612.05. In half a year. Oops!

Happy Birthday, Sonic the Hedgehog

Happy 20th birthday, Sonic! Not that you can hear me, being a) fictional, and b) dead. Dead to me at least, with Sega’s stream of memory-raping crapbaskets they call Sonic games. I’ve done all that before. Moaned about Sonic games. At length. To anyone who will listen, read or otherwise take an interest (or not). It hasn’t done any good: Sega still keeps making them. Today, to mark his birthday, Sega have released a demo of Sonic Generations for the …

The Nintendo Wii U

There’s no point denying it this time round. Fact is, I pre-ordered a Gamecube. I pre-ordered a Wii. I love both those machines, and I’ll love this. Even if only three decent Nintendo games ever come out for it and then it dies a horrible death. I don’t care – I want one. In fact, I’ve pre-ordered one already. Tch, eh?

The Rapture: A post about the PS3

I have, in the past, been quite vocal about my dislike for Sony products. Specifically, the Playstation, Playstation 2, and the PSP. All of which I own, all of which I hate. In fact, I have no idea why I even bought a PSP. I didn’t want one, and just had £125 in my pocket one day when I saw a white one for sale for £125. Fool and his money, etc. My main gripe with all of these, but …

I am the Face of Words With Friends

There’s a game for iOS (and Android) called Words With Friends. It is a clone of Scrabble. Except for legal reasons it isn’t. But anyway. It’s a tile based word game. Whatever. Anyway. The other day, some random person started a game of it with me. This isn’t unusual, as there’s a random match-up facility. This person, however, asked me in the in-game chat if I was the same “deKay01” as was in The Telegraph the other day. I was …
