Ah...another broken comments system.

OK, I'll admit that the one good reason I've found for potentially jumping in and installing Moveable Type one day is that you don't have to rely on external servers for your commenting system. I say this as the system used by Radio seems to be FUBAR (again) which not only stops the comments appearing, but also generally trips up the normal loading of the rest of the page....

Little Camera For Little Pictures

Last Friday I went for a little stroll along the sea front to take some pictures to be used for the top of this very weblog. You can see them up there, look!

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of my little Sony Cybershot U (20) [web page is flash based] - considering it cost less than 200 pounds and is "only" a 2 megapixel camera, it's very useable - in some good sunlight at least.

The pictures were taken with the camera in complete 'auto' mode, I didn't select the specific shooting modes ("Vivid Landscape" etc).

I've put up a quick gallery page for you to have a look at them in more detail, should you so wish. The page is pretty image heavy, be warned....

Best of all, of course, is that the camera comes in 4 different colours! Haha. Though the Sony website only mentions two, it's available in silver, red, black (mine) and blue. How stylish!
