Looking for Work – Hire me!

31 July 2011

I’m currently on the look for freelance web design or development projects, or in fact any computer related work. I have found myself with a lot of free time since I finished University, and it just doesn’t feel the same having a normal 9-5 job. I think I’m in need of some 20+ hour coding stints at the weekends again. I’m missing the burning of the midnight flame with a deadline fast approaching!

What I’m looking for

  • Front end web design & development (HTML5, CSS3, progressive enrichment, semantics, accessibility)
  • Back end web development (OO PHP)
  • PC hardware (building, repairing or modifying desktop or laptop PCs)

Please, tell your friends and get in touch!

An in-depth look at Connect.me

9 March 2011

Connect.me was ‘released’ a few days ago, and it seems that it’s really started to snowball now, mainly via Twitter.

Maybe ‘An in-depth look’ was an exaggeration. Probably should read, ‘a very brief and almost unfounded look at Connect.me’.

I’ve spent the last couple of hours researching and thinking about it, so I thought I’d put fingers to keyboard and explain what Connect.me is and the scope for its use.

5830 Crossfire Benchmark

15 February 2011

I’ve just completed a kind of mini benchmark/review of my Crossfire ATI 5830 setup. However, at the same time I overclocked the CPU and CPU-NB, so the results can be taken with a pinch of salt. The aim was simply to find out how much of a difference it made adding another graphics card to my computer and overclocking everything I could, as high as I could.

View the results & write up here.
