Photos, flickr and falbum

So I’ve spent bits of the day, on and off, fiddling with the layout trying it to get it to display my flickr photostream. I’ve managed to stick the flickr badge at the top with not too much trouble, but trying to get a page displayed that doesn’t look crap or is broken out of falbum still eludes me. At some point I guess, I’ll find a way to fix it.

*sigh*

What this is all about

So, finally caught up with moving all the reBlogged stuff into the right category instead of being “Uncategorised”. There won’t be much by the way of normal posting in this blog, as mainly it’s a place to display all my other blogging efforts around the net in one place.
Other than that I have no idea what else might go here. I’ll probably stick in various other feeds from non-blog places like flickr and last.fm, possibly some other places. Basically this is to aggregate stuff that I have a hand in and any future additions will be along those lines.

Oh. And a small sidenote, the reblogged stuff has wacky timestamps, so if you see something reblogged at like… 4am, it’s probably not the right time. Heh. As if I would be awake then.

What you didn’t know about the popes of Rome.

 

On the evening of Saturday April 2, 2005, after receiving the Rite of Extreme Unction, Pope John Paul II passed away. At this time his chamberlain would have gone to the papal hospital bed and asked the Bishop of Rome a question, "Are you dead?" There would be no reply from the Pope. The chamberlain would then pick up a silver hammer and strike the Pope on the head and repeat his question, "Are you dead?" Again there would be no reply. The chamberlain would then thrice call out the Pope’s baptismal name. He would then declare the Pope to be dead.

Blogging, intelligent agents and final year projects

It’s the time of year again where I get to choose a final year project. Again.

I would have been doing the project in the last year but I kind of failed all my programming. Oops. So this year it is.

The bonus however, is that I actually understand Java far better now and have a good grasp of Prolog. Plus, now I’ve had a whole year to browse through blogs and gather resources and stuff, I’ve got a better idea for what I actually want to do. Rather than a vague sort of “something bloglike”.

Of course, I want to try and get a more cohesive idea of what I want to do, and figure out if I have the skills to do it from scratch or will need to use open source tools and stuff as a jumping off point.

It’s all fairly exciting really.
