Good Links
These are links to friend's sites and sites that I personally recommend.
Friends
Rob Smith. Someone on my course at Uni. Rob very kindly gave me a lift home for the Easter holidays and tolerates my ringing him at unsociable hours for no good reason other than I need to hear a human voice. (I should ring the speaking clock - that talks to you every few seconds.)
Amy Kimber. Amy is the token female in my university social circle (no, I don't really mean that) and has an unpleasant tendency to overuse certain words, e.g. "Groovy". But she has a very well-designed site, which I blame on her studying Internet Technology.
Ross Allan. Another member of the university Toilet Crew. This page was done by him for his Introduction to Internet course (as was mine.) This is a beautifully designed and well laid out page, complete with high quality video of the 80's cartoon Transformers. All together now <sings>- "Transformers! Robots in disguise!"
Cruel people might describe this page using the words "few", "seconds", "cobbled", "together" and "in". Obviously, I would never do such a thing.... :-)
Rob Wilson. Rob number 2 is someone I was at school with. He has another well-designed, full site. He offered to host this one for me, but it never seemed to get uploaded (which I'm not blaming him for, although God knows who else there is. :-) )
Carl Kambites. Carl is another schoolfriend who is possessed of a manic sense of humour, which manifests itself in a website with a truly awful colour scheme. His site may be more technically advanced than mine, but I would argue that there is no point having a site that no one can fucking read.
Recommended Sites
TalkSPORT. Formerly known as Talk Radio, this was my radio station of choice for about 4 years. Then the powers-that-be in charge of the station, whom I hope all die horribly in freak eating accidents, decided to turn the whole station's output over to sport. Except they left a bit of non-sport in at nights, so I don't recommend listening before 10 pm English time. They do a webcast over the Net from this site, so if you're looking for a new station ostensibly-devoted-to-sport-but-those-of-us-who-listen-after-10-pm-know-better-don't-we?, try this one.
And yes, this is also mentioned on my hate page.
Staffordshire University Computing Department. The Computing Department at Staffordshire University, where I am studying for a degree in (coincidentally) computing.
CDWorld.co.uk. This site is run by
Craig Rothwell, where he sells his CDs of emulation software. If you're not
interested in emulation, then you can go there for his links to strange stories.
Iron Maiden: Still around, still
kicking arse.
