Flash game Roll updated – now with high scores
I have now updated my game Roll so that it makes use of the new highscores system from Mochiads.
The system is very easy to use and I'd recommend it for anyone who wants a quick and easy highscore system for their flash games (does anybody who reads my blog make flash games?)
I'm not convinced it's perfect just yet, although any faults will be my end, and not with the Mochiads leaderboard service.
If anyone can score more than 12000 I ...

In my excitement to get the BM-Comment-Highlight plugin out yesterday I forgot to tell you how to actually use the thing. Also since posting it yesterday I have though of another feature for the plugin so I have updated it accordingly.
How to use BM-Comment-HighlightTo use the plugin all you have to do is include a single php function call in your wordpress loop. This will return to you a string that you can use as a class in any ...
New WordPress Plugin – BM Comment Highlight
A couple of weeks ago I mentioned how to upload plugins to WordPress.org - and now I give to you, my second WordPress plugin - bm-comment-highlight.
Comment Highlight does exactly what it says on the tin. If you look around you will find that there are a lot of plugins that do what bm-comment-highlight does, namely add extra classes to comments so that you can make ...
Disney Interactive map on the DS
I have just got back from Disneyland in Anaheim (I'll write a post about my trip when I get the photos sorted out) - and one of the first things I found in my overflowing feedreader when I returned was this post on Wired about an interactive Disneyland map for the Nintendo DS that Disney are beta testing.
Thankfully I have a pretty good sense of direction so after a couple of ...
Where’s Wall-E – a brief history of Pixar in-jokes
I love me some Pixar and by all accounts Wall-E is going to be their best film yet. I am really looking forward to it. In celebration of the upcoming film I thought I should mention the following link - a brief history of Pixar in-jokes.
I've known about a lot of the jokes for some time. Some of them I even spotted myself (the pizza planet truck in a Bugs Life), and a lot ...
A 3 step guide to getting your WordPress plugin onto WordPress.org
I recently got my bm-custom-login plugin accepted onto the Wordress plugin repository. In order to get it online I had to use subversion - something I've never used before.
I found the "using svn page" on wordpress.org to be rather intimidating. For example the first section "getting started" jumps straight into telling you what commands to type without even mentioning the basic things such as what to download. This seems to go against the simple software the WordPress team ...
The Queen likes Wills Wii
The People, a UK newspaper, are reporting that the Queen has really gotten into playing with Prince Williams Wii (no jokes please, this is serious news).
A Palace source told The People: "When she saw William playing a game after lunch at Sandringham she thought the Nintendo looked tremendous fun and begged to join in.
"She played a simple ten-pin bowling game and by all accounts was a natural.
"It was hilarious. William was in fits of laughter. He was enormously impressed ...
New Windows Mobile leaked… looks good
Apparently this is a genuine "leak" for the new version of Windows mobile. I have used windows mobile on old touchscreen devices and I must say, despite being a fan of pc's, I came away feeling a little dirty. It wasn't a pleasant experience. The software was clunky and cumbersome, essentially full windows, squashed up, and made more ugly (if that's even possible).
The new version of Windows mobile seems to take a lot of queues from the Iphone, with various ...
