Coded, populated and tweaked on a tight deadline of just a few hours, a new WordPress-driven sub-site, created for my 9-5 employer, University College Falmouth, was sent live yesterday.
Looping through a SubSonic collection
ArticleCollection articles = new ArticleCollection();
articles.Where("IssueID", 10);
articles.Load();

foreach (Article a in articles)

Response.Write(a.Headline + ", ");
}

Ellen’s iPhone Advertisement
I do love this video – and can’t believe that Ellen was made to apologise to Apple for it.

Apple need to quickly develop a corporate sense of humour as things like this, and the response to their recently lost iPhone, can only show them in a bad light.

GoblinMarket.co.uk
A new domain name has just been snapped up for use on a future project. There are no firm plans for GoblinMarket.co.uk yet, but I’m thinking along the lines of an ecommerce web site.
Its been quite a while since I first registered the AirCooledBugs.com domain name and annouced to the world my plans for the website – over 18 months ago in fact. Shame on me! Although there is no live site yet (my in-house projects always take a backseat to client work) it is still being actively developed and I hope to be able to publish the site within the next few months.
