Toolbars ??

Today I have spent some time playing about with Internet Explorer Toolbar's. I have now have installed Google Toolbar, Yahoo Toolbar and MSN Toolbar, after playing with them all for a while in my opinion the Google toolbar is the best of the three due to it's integration with Blogger.

However, I was quite dismayed to find that none of these toolbars actually work with other browsers such as Mozilla 1.7, Mozilla Firefox 0.8 or Opera 7.5. In my opinion they should make compatible versions for these browsers and therefore make their products available to everyone, not just Internet Explorer users!

What happens if you run Linux and therefore cannot access Internet Explorer?? I have now found a version of the google toolbar for Mozilla located at
http://googlebar.mozdev.org/, it works with Mozilla 1.7, Mozilla Firefox 0.8 and Netscape 7.1, however it does not have blogger functionality!

Today I have mostly being reading!

This week I certainly do not feel as bad as I did last week after playing football, today I have been getting some more work done on my dissertation I have also being reading Computer Networks by Andrew.S.Tanenbaum, and generally increasing my background knowledge. I also attended a seminar by a Phd student I know, which was very interesting. The weather was nice once again so I went for another short walk around Scarborough! All good fun!

Worn out again!!

I am a little bit knackered after playing football today, with my University Friends! However, have not got the cramp in my leg I had last time, something must be going right!

Today, was another beautiful day in Scarborough and everything is going well? During summer I hope to get away camping but we will have to wait and see whether I have the time.

Have just started reading Apache,MySQL and PHP Weekend Crash Course by Steven.M.Schafer, which appears to be quite an interesting book with quite a useful website link!

I also meant to watch the transit of Venus across the sun, but unfortunately didn't have the time or any viewing apparatus!

On a totally seperate note I found the above link which I found quite amusing, enjoy!

Tonight I have been at the Gym!

Today was a bit of a hectic affair as you can guess by my late post! I started the day well, by getting on with Dissertation research at 9.30a.m. this morning and actually progressing well with my proposal. By the time 11.00a.m. came it was to hot to work on my computer, however I thought that rain was forecast late this afternoon, so I thought I could continue the work when it had cooled down to a reasonable temperature.

I then had a brainwave and made my way across to the air conditioned computer laboratories, somewhere to work that wasn't too hot & I got on with the work! I think I made some good progress as I spent all the afternoon reading and typing notes!

When I left the labs it was still too hot, so I decided to go to the Gym, see the link above! Hopefully the weather will be cooler tomorrow, as we are not in continental europe you know!

Anyway, overall I had a nice productive day and a visit to the Gym to keep my fitness level up, all good fun!

Now I am proceeding to bed!

Today I went for a walk on Scarborough cliff top!

With the weather being so nice once again, I decided to work from 8a.m. to mid-afternoon. I then spent some time further updating my Blog.

I now have a mood icon courtesy of imood.com . I also have gained a countdown to event utility courtesy of Sharon Gartenberg's Date Countdown and a I believe in the BBC icon courtesy of Bloggerheads.com all making my sidebar look a little less empty!

I then went for a walk around Scarborough,

Good Night!

Not home this weekend!

This weekend I decided not to go home as I had quite a lot of work to do in Scarborough. I have had quite a productive time so far this weekend, and even had a relatively relaxed afternoon in a pub in Scarborough with some University friends, watching the England vs. Iceland match, I have to say the match was fairly better than the last England display. What better way to spend a Saturday afternoon especially when the weather is so nice. It is always good to have a few hours rest every few days!! Tomorrow I intend to complete more work towards my Dissertation, hopefully it won't be quite so warm for working in front of a computer tomorrow! However, for the rest of this evening I intend to read the Daily Telegraph in bed, good night everyone!

Spent the evening updating my web presence!

Today I have spent yet more time working on my MSc dissertation before deciding that I needed a break and therefore this evening I have spent time updating the website specified in the title above, as well as updating my http://cafe.cic.hull.ac.uk/~icm03ak/ website!

I think I am making progress with my Dissertation, however I still don't think I'll be going on any more rallies till September at the earliest! I was a bit dismayed to here Tim Henman had been knocked out of the French Open, what a blow!

Anyway, hope everyone else is well, don't forget to post comments if you want to!

Does everyone like my new updated blog, that now works on Mozilla under Linux!

Have been working on my MSc Dissertation. So, with working on that all day I get very little time to post, hence the late posting of previous entries!

However I did make my Blog site work under Mozilla for Redhat Linux, after a lot of fiddling with code & HTML!

Hope all my readers are well!

Mostly Working!

Today I have mostly being reading for my dissertation, trying not to forget to eat and generally running round! I meant to make it to the Gym, as our football match was called off this week but I never got there, there's always tommorow I suppose!

I will get there one day this week as I am determined! Hopefully the weather will stay the same as today, relatively warm but dull, I suppose its better than rain. Because, when, it rains it really does rain here in Sunny Scarborough!

All Finished

Today I have been getting some work done, I must say it is very quiet here at Hull University now the undergraduates have finished for this semester!

Good Night!

I've finally finished all my work and I am therefore proceeding to bed, good night everyone!
