I now use Alan Little’s fantastic Phorm 3.0 to create forms for user feedback and enquiries. This software uses PHP to email the contents of a filled form on an HTML page. The documentation is comprehensive and easy to understand.

John Coumbe (CodeBurger) pointed this out to me: Basecamp is an online project management tool which I am trialing.
I am using it for the management of the updating of this very web site.

I often observe that web site addresses are published in print and there seems to be little consistency in the way people do it! I thought I should investigate the minimum web address that needs to be indicated to get a successful hit on a web page. Most people would be happy with http://www.someplace.com and all browsers will add the http:// on to this automatically. Do we really need to show the cryptic "http://" ?

Rotterdam-based photographer Ari Versluis and stylist Ellie Uyttenbroek have created this site to show forms of dress code. To which social group do you belong? The grouping of these individuals is really striking.

A good place to start looking at sites based on an ‘infectious’ idea. You’ll find a good definition of a meme at Hyperdictionary. A good example is the Mirror Project

What a pain! I have had a significant amount of hassle from this problem:
Photoshop 7 adds XML content to saved jpgs. Now this only happens if you DON’T use the ‘save for web’ feature and so probably goes unnoticed to most.
A jpeg with added XML data will crash Internet Explorer 6 on PC. Not version 5 and not any version on MAC. I said crash but actually it is even more serious than that becasue Internet Explorer will not load another image until you restart! So if you FTP a jpeg to your site be sure to use the ‘save for web’ menu.
