7 years 10 months ago I started this blog, today i've hit my 800th blog post. I'd say this is my 3rd blog since I started blogging when I was 14, however there have been other odd ones in between.

When I look back, 800 doesn't seem that many, but i've always had to fit blogging around my everyday life, which has been pretty busy since I started this blog. I go through phases of activity then I don't write for a while.

Over the past few months I have been focused on providing more relevant content, especially around technology and gaming. I finally feel confident with YouTube videos and have lots more planned over the next few months. I just don't have enough time to record them all!

I've also blogged about my life, my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes I have to say what I'm feeling, though I try not todo it very often. I want to keep the content as varied as possible, I don't want it to all be about Apple (even though a lot of it is).
I really enjoy blogging, and I would like to devote more time to it, I've had big plans for a while now and 2013 could be the year it happens.

Thanks to everyone that reads my blog regularly, its good to know that people to!.

Next stop 1000?....

I regularly check my website analytics to see how my blog is doing, what content is popular, desktop versus mobile and much more. The stats i like to look at most are which search terms users put into search engines and end up at my site.

There's been quite a few of the same lately so i'm going to quickly answer those questions now.

1. Keep Calm Carry On - A very popular iPhone / iPad app at the moment
2. Does the blackberry 9900 come with a case? - Yes it does
3. Wispa Mint - Cadburys have said it's not time for the Wispa mint to return but they are working on something else.
4. iReplaced a PC Wallpaper - I made my own
5. Sleep talk recorder - Read my review

Those are the top 5, i'll do this more regularly hopefully it will help you find what you are after!....

Hi guys

Regular readers of my blog may have noticed my blog has been unavailable for the last day or so. I apologise for this as much as I can, I hate unavailable websites just as much as the next person and unfortunately it was out of my control.

A coding error in a piece of software caused files to be deleted when it was updated. This caused my server and others to effectively disappear.

However the good thing was I do have full backups. But the server needed to be rebuilt and configured before the files could be restored. Those steps have now been completed and the blog should be back online. However as part of the problem my ip addresses were reallocated to somewhere else, so mine had to change. This meant that DNS has to update and propagate the Internet, as some of you know this can take upto 48hours.

Fingers crossed everything will be back to normal shortly. If you seen any problems then please feel free to let me know.

Once again sorry for the downtime.

Thanks....

I've just made a small change to my blog, I have added a "related blogs" section to each blog. This allows me to link together blogs that cover the same or similar subjects and makes it much easier to track what's been posted.

However because it wasn't implemented from day one it means I have to manually decide whats related to what and with 500+ blog posts it's going to take a while!

Not all blogs will have related blogs, so it's only displayed if their are related blogs.

As previously mentioned i do have another website launching soon, however it's taking longer than i expected, but it is coming soon just bare with me!

I think thats all the news updates for now

Welcome to Friday, just before i start, the rapture is coming tomorrow and the world is meant to end, so this blog may well be pointless, if i believed in all that crap anyway.

My todo list is getting so long at the moment, i have so much todo at the moment and i'm thinking of new things all the time, and it's hard to keep up. It doesn't help that i have felt ill most of today and got nothing done! It's good to have a lot of ideas though.

I am really getting into blogging, and reviewing, and recording videos for YouTube, more than i ever have before. So here is a brief example of my todo list.

1. I have about 20 outstanding blog ideas.
2. I want to review all the apps i have on my iPhone & iPad, which is currently 244, so i have a long way to go!
3. I will do some demo videos for these apps, as it makes it much more interactive.
4. Screencasts for desktop apps.
5. Gameplay videos for Minecraft, Portal 2 and others i'm not going to reveal yet. ....

I have been blogging quite a lot lately. Most of it is tech or gaming related but we a few other posts thrown in as well. Even though I'm posting more regularly than ever there is still so much to come!

I have a lot of app reviews todo, I'm actually considering reviewing every single app on my phone to build up the section.

I also have a lot of Mac software that I want todo reviews and screencasts for. The first one should be done in the next couple of days so I can't wait for that.

I will also be keeping up the gaming videos, including Minecraft and Portal 2 again this will be expanding into more games!

If anyone has any suggestions for any of the above, then tweet me and I will see what I can do.

Finally as previously mentioned the new website that will better cover all my tech and gaming blogs etc is coming! 

I hope everyone likes what I've been doing I will try and keep it as varied as possible! ....

Hello!

Just a quick service announcement to let you know my websites will be moving house!

Currently there located on a server in the USA (it was cheaper) but will be moving to a brand new server in the UK over the next few days.

It shouldn't really cause this blog to be unavailable, well thats the the theory.

But with geeky things like DNS being unpredictable it could be unavailable for a short period of time. But rest assured it wont be for too long!

I have a lot of new things planned after the move, lots of blogs todo and new ideas too!

Please bare with me! ....

Hello!

It's nearly 5am, i might blog again in a minute to explain whilst I'm awake! but I'm not sure yet.

But i have been using my time wisely. A while ago i decided to make a iPhone friendly version of this site. It was massively cut down and much easier to use. However it only really displayed nicely on the iPhone so i never really mentioned it.

So i have started work on a universal mobile site that will display on iPhones, Blackberry's, Androids etc. It will still be a cut down site for now, but its a start right?

At least now people on phone's can read it as well!

Once I've got it to a certain stage i will announce it.

No need to thank me you're welcome!....

As you might of guessed by now i like to talk.

It's often easier for me to post to audioboo and then repost it on my blog later. However sometimes i forget.

So i have now added a feed of my audioboos on the right hand menu, which updates automatically.

I might change it so a blog gets posted automatically, but that might be annoying, so for now it's fine as it is.

No need to thank me! ....
