9 April 2008 : Happy JavaScript Amputation Day!
I’ve been coerced into stripping off in aid of CSS Naked Day for another year, but I’ve also changed my behaviour.
4 April 2007 : I have no style
I’ve stripped out my CSS files for 48 hours – it’s CSS Naked Day!
2 April 2007 : Good blog URL structure
I ramble on about what I think makes a good URL for blog entries.
27 November 2006 : A few changes due to comment spam
Due to an increasing amount of spam comments on my site, I am trying out my own version of a plugin (mrw_spamkeywords_urlcount) that should fish out a large majority of the offending posts.
- 14 September 2006 : Feeds Knackered
Some of my feeds are busted at the moment… something to do with the feed URLs not using the same year/month/day/title format as the rest of the site.I’ve now fixed the feeds…
1 May 2006 : Rebooted: Version 2.0
So, my live redesign went down the pan… Now, it’s all gone stencilled!
- 17 November 2005 : Home Sweet Home
After several years of living la vida Yorkshire, we now be in the land where they know how they make it so creamy.
- 8 September 2005 : Long time, no dotjay: an update
I’ve not written a proper post in ages. I’ve not written anything for over a month. I have several posts in the works, some of which follow up on previous posts and promises I made quite a while back. Anyway, this is an attempt to make up excuses for being so quiet.
- 26 July 2005 : Live Redesign, Step 2: Speeding things up
You’d be forgiven for thinking that I’m going to write about speeding up textpattern or some such rubbish here, but that’s not what this is about. Progress redesigning the site is slooooow. Maybe there’s a way to speed things up.
- 8 July 2005 : Live Redesign, Step 1: Moving to Textpattern 1.0RC3
Things are starting to look a bit ugly around here…
- 19 March 2005 : This Burdensome Blog
I've been trying to figure out why my textpattern run time has been so slow. I'm trying to get to the bottom of it, but in the meantime, my apologies to readers.
- 22 November 2004 : Just Playing
In a fantastic bit of work avoidance last night, I decided to have a bit of a play with the dotjay design.
- 31 October 2004 : What's all this then?
Well, I thought it was about time I let my brain float out onto the open Web, so I've started my own blog. Over recent months, I have been subjected to several ideas and projects that have spurred my own (often tangential) thoughts and theories.
So, this blog contains ramblings from Jon Gibbins – and that's about it! But who is this guy? Well, I guess I'd better explain!
- 25 October 2004 : And so it begins... again...
OK, so this is my second attempt at a blog, the first being an overall failure because I just didn't have the time to keep posting to it. I think it was down to my own expectations of being able to post at least every other day.
So this blog starts with a disclaimer: This is not a journal where I write something every day. I may get to that stage at some point, but for the moment, this is only an occasional blog.
