    Photographs.

     
     
    Hey, I'm back - so soon!
     
     
    FINALLY!! I have been able to upload some photo's Open-mouthed.
     
    I've realised that I haven't completed the album
    of my holiday on the Cote d'Azur last Summer Disappointed.
    So I've now made a start on that.
    However, the new upload system on Spaces is
    neither as intuitive, or as quick, as the one on....
    FaceBook!! 
    Shock, horror Confused
    BUT, the end result is, I think, better Surprised.
    Certainly, as a way to view photo's, it's brilliant.
    If only they could make uploading, tagging, describing etc, etc
    work as simply as it does on FaceBook.
    Guess you can't have everything Disappointed.

    Update!

     
     
    Hello!
     
     
    Haven't been on here for ages Disappointed !
    I'd forgotten just how much you can do here,
    as oppose to FaceBook Surprised.
    I really like the way you can view photo's
    here now, so I must do some updates.
    Open-mouthed Next week Wink.

    Changes!

     
     
    Well, there have been changes!
    Live Spaces has changed/evolved.
    Don't know exactly what's changed.... yet!
    The question is: Will it be enough to lure people back?
     
    Just going to investigate... Confused
     
     
    Wow! Just been exploring Thinking,
    seems the changes are all around Spaces,
    but not actually in/to your Space!
    (except for minor improvements(?) )
    It's all v.confusing for my poor 'ickle brain Wink.
    They've messed with Photo's again -
    maybe this time they've got it right?
    Time will tell I guess Clock !
     
     
    Off to investigate some more now,
    I may be some time Surprised .

    Lewis Hamilton gave us all a minor heart attack on the last lap
    of the F1 GP at Interlagos.
    Three corners to go & the championship was lost!
    Then Timo Glock fell out of the way & Lewis regained
    the 5th place he needed to win the
    F1 World Drivers Championship.
     
    Felipe Massa won the race, to finish as
    runner-up in the championship.
    Ferrari have the consolation of winning the
    Constructors Championship.
     
     
    Open-mouthed CONGRATULATIONS Open-mouthed

    I have to report the temporary (I hope!) demise of
    my computer Crying .
     
    Unfortunately, despite seemingly more than adequate security,
    firewall, anti-spy,anti-virus etc, etc Disappointed
    a bloody trojan snuck in & screwed up my operating system Angry .
     
    A rescue mission is underway as we speak Nerd .

    Realtime photographs!

     

    Me, sat at home with my best mate (Nescafe!), messing with my new webcam!!

    (got it cheap in a sale - lol!!)  

    Now I can post photo's direct from webcam into my blog - OMG!

    1/19/2008

    Updated photo's etc.

    Update

    Just a couple of lines to let you know what's happening, on this space at least!

    I've started adding photo's from Madrid,but it's a painfully slow process,
    as IE7 still will not let me upload photo's & Firefox only
    lets me do a maximum of 3 at a time, & there's often problems with that too!!
    I have no idea why Confused it used to be dead easy to put photo's on here,
    that was one of the main attractions of a "space", as far as I am concerned!
    Now I seem to be beset with problems,for which nobody seems to have a reason or cure!!

    I also intend to update all the "lists" soon, especially the Motor sport calenders - it is 2008 now!

    As there seems to be a few dead links on here now,
    a bit of house maintenance is in order so, if you find any dead links,
    please let me know, thanks.


    Wink End of update! Hot

    Happy New Year

     

     

    A Happy New Year to all.

     

    2008 is up & running & I've just

    finished 3 days back at work - already!!

    I hope everyone had a good Christmas & a

    cracking New Year?

    We got back from Madrid just in time to

    sit in front of Jools' Hootenanny - welcome home!

    Madrid was a great experience (I hope to have a

    load of photo's up on here soon) & I'd recommend a visit

    there to anyone. Apparently it's the highest (in terms

    of altitude at least) Capital city in Europe!
