Blog Tweaks

Just made a few minor tweaks to the layout and design.  I’ve given the sections on the right-hand side some more prominent headings and moved the Twitter section nearer the top instead of the bottom.

AMindLost on Twitter

I’ve always taken issue with “social networking” sites such as Twitter and Facebook.  Twitter seems to be full of useless posts about people taking their dogs for a walk or telling us what they had for dinner and Facebook is for people desperate to be in a group of any kind and is mostly used for self-promotion and ego-stroking.

Whilst I maintain my stance that I will never have a facebook account, I have decided to dabble with Twitter a little to see if I can make any use out of it at all. You can see my latest tweets at the bottom of the right-hand sidebar or on twitter under the name AMindLost.  It may be a short-lived experiment and be either deleted or left to slowly rot into oblivion but I’ll try to post some meaningful content to it which is not substantial enough to warrant a full blog post.

We will see…… :)

PS3 Connection Problems

psnetwork I’ve noticed a big spike today in traffic to my earlier post regarding a connection failure on the Playstation network.  The cause appears to be a large number of older-style PS3 consoles being shut off the network due to a calendar problem.  The problem is global and widespread it seems.  More details here.
