Use Firefox

This web site uses standard web language as intended by Tim Berners-Lee , the inventor of the world wide web.

Web language is important because using it means that all types of “standard compliant” Internet software can display web sites the same way and no single software company will ever control the language the web uses.

Unfortunately Internet Explorer by Microsoft is not able to read all of the standard web language because they have forced web designers to use their own software’s proprietary language over the last ten years by dominating the “browser” market.

We think it is important to help reverse that trend and have decided to use the standard web language so unfortunately you may experience a degraded viewing experience using Internet Explorer.

Internet software should not try to use proprietary “browser language”, we owe it to future generations to ensure that “web language” prevails. That’s why it’s important to use a “standards compliant” web browser like Firefox. So that large companies like Microsoft can never take over the language of the web.
I like to use Firefox but there are many other W3C compliant browsers you could use.”

Back to Work

Well, its been a long time since I last wrote, and a lot has happened since then. I got married, went on honeymoon to Croatia and have properly moved into my new place. Everything is set up in our new place, and I’ve settled back into commuting down to Crawley, which is quite a long journey just for a job. I’ve been looking for a new job closer to where I live, to cut down on travelling time and costs, but so far haven’t been very successful. I reckon its gonna take a bit of time before I can get another job, although obviously I’m trying to make that as short as possible.

Haven’t had too many problems with the journey down, but sometimes I don’t get back till 8 o’clock which is a bit of a pain. Still, its keeping the money coming in, which is vitally important, seeing as there’s so many bills to pay.

Tuesday this week, there was a problem with the gates at the station, when a fat lady got stuck in the gates, and a large number of people missed their train because of it. I was one of the people affected, which meant that I didn’t get to work as soon as I woiuld have liked.
