Website Update

Posted by Joeb on December 21, 2007

Ok, I posted yesterday about how I was purchasing a domain name for this site (which I’ve now done). I also own http://www.joeb454.com which now forwards you to this site, so for those of you who’re like me, and forget .co.uk websites and always put .com instead are in luck :)

Anyway, I thought I’d update you on the situation.

*Please Note:the page’s do not work for this - e.g. joeb454.com/about will bring you to the homepage

Site Style

Posted by Joeb on December 21, 2007

I really like this website style, though I have one issue with it - I want it to be a variable width so that it adapts to widescreen displays etc…also a 2nd column would be nice, I might have to experiment with the other themes on offer.

If anybody can help with this it’d be much appreciated

Office 2007 Disc’s

Posted by Joeb on December 21, 2007

As I mentioned earlier I received the disc’s for Microsoft Office 2007 earlier, and I didn’t expect them to be full retail versions of the disc’s or anything, I expected OEM versions. Either way, the first disc is all fancy and what-not (there’s an image below) and the 2nd is just a plain silver disc.

Windows Vista Service Pack 1

Posted by Joeb on December 21, 2007

I’m currently using Vista Service Pack 1, and I have to say…it’s not much different.

I’m well aware that there’s many change’s ‘behind the scenes’ which make improvements here and there. But to the end user, there’s not really much difference, except the disappearance of the “Search” option on the Start Menu.

I also have service pack 1 for Office 2007 (Ultimate Edition) and I haven’t really noticed anything different about that. Speaking of Office, I received my back-up disks today :) I only wanted them because I knew they’d be official printed disk’s
