Sleep? Who needs it!

January 4th, 2007 by Kev

My sleep pattern is totally messed up now, my brain just won’t switch off and over the last few nights, err mornings, when I have got to sleep I have had the most weird and wild dreams, even for me! Anyway when I have been awake I have been very productive so I am not really complaining, I will just need to get back in balance by Monday when I return to work.

I have added a new section of links called Mirrors, this is mainly so I remember to check them. I cross-post mainly because I know that many people only read or post to blogs within the system that they use so I am reaching out to them as it were. Also as I have mentioned in the past I lost all the entries of my first Darkest Before Dawn blog when the provider shut down and I would rather not have that happen again so posting as many places as I can gives me plenty of backups to fall back on should disaster strike. I have added Xanga to the list. I set up an account ages ago but I didn’t find a way to cross-post but now I have, it will not have older posts as that is not possible. I am using the Croissanga plugin.

My blogger has also been cleaned up it still had 54 posting of jibberish from when an email posting of a photo went wrong.

I noticed that my Photo’s on Multiply were still in draft, DOH! They are now published, most of them have been waiting for over a year.

I have also added Snap Preview Anywhereâ„¢ which lets you preview the site at a link without actually going there, I think it is particularly useful on the blog links as you can get a rough idea about a blog and you may be more inclined then to travel to it rather than just seeing a name. Credit for this goes to Suthern as I spotted it at her Place

Oh and I have just put click-able smilies back on the comments form.

    I really like your new theme a lot! You are a good photographer. I seem always to be most productive and creative at night. I guess that comes with over tiredness - I guess there must be an explanation for it somewhere.

    I don’t know if I like the Snap preview thing. At first I thought it was ads! I can see how it can save your eyes from bloated crap sites though.

    Thank you jEN :lol: Nan, yeah I kind of thought that as well when I first saw it. I was thinking of giving people some way of switching such features on and off? I could be done through a cookie or by letting people register and giving them an options panel. I never used the user registration on WordPress, in the early day there seemed little point to it I guess. I may look into this further.
