I got the above sent to me in an email today. Surprisingly I don’t get much spam/ junk mail/ phishing attempts sent to me, and I have only had three Nigerian Princes get in touch (apparently they have a very large royal family). Normally I just ignore these emails but this one was different. Whereas they traditionally say something like, ‘go to the following link and fill out your information’, or ‘open the attachment to verify your account’, this one had the form to fill out inside the actual …

Clocky - Gotta get me one of these.
If you’re like me you have loads of passwords for anything and everything on the Internet. I have recently taken to making my passwords totally random combinations of letters and numbers. This makes remembering them next to impossible, which means there is now a text file full of passwords sitting on my desktop. Not the perfect situation to be in.

The main new feature is the search engine. Not much use now but in the future when I have a decent amount of posts someone might find it handy. I’m not entirely happy with the colours but those can be played with later.
I have also added links to my games in the sidebar. I will be adding a projects section to the site which will hold all of the games I have worked on (including the older, free ones) but for now these will have to do.
