Recently I’ve been doing some paid work on a website for a client – Zoom Infinity Limited. It’s a scientific research company run by Dr. Hemant Desai, who was my science teacher a few years ago at QPCS.

The site is, of course, valid XHTML 1.0 Strict.
Feedback is welcome, though of course remember that this a commercial company and so anything unsuitable will be removed or edited by the big scary censor me as appropriate. Thanks ![]()
Yay this is really cool… I’ve been using a Messenger Plus! plugin to check RSS feeds for me but now I’ve been converted to the goodness of blogbot – a free add-in for Microsoft Outlook. RSS really does rock, and I’ve always wanted a nice and simple integration with email. For those of you using a simple aggregator, I hope to add an additional RSS feed of comments to this blog very soon.
Edit – for those who want it, the RSS comment feed is now online.
At the end of this week’s Enrichement session this afternoon Rishal and I volunteered to do capsizing as part of getting the One Star Award (you gotta start somewhere). The first time we were rubbish, too keen to get up for air and then ungracefully trying to undo the spray-deck sideways. And belatedly hitting the boat like you’re supposed to. The second attempt was much better – once we grasped that gravity is very useful at pulling you down and out under the water. Cheers, Newton.
Anyway – as you’d expect I was soaking wet and freezing, and thanks to certain laziness on behalf of the minibus driver had to walk all the way home carrying half the canal back in a bag of wet clothes and trainers. But it was worth it!
