Real Chicago: Chicago-Sun Times Photo Essay
Lods of photos of Chicago, from the 1940’s onwards. I can’t wait to get back there next year!
Say Hi To The World Snoopy!
My friend Niamh’s sister got a puppy a few weeks ago. Here he is, Snoopy, the cute little thing! Really hard to get a good shot of a fast moving, almost non-stop creature. Thankfully he stopped to chew on an autumn leaf !
WordPress Multiuser 0.1
The very first release of WPMU, WordPress Multi User, is out now and is available for download!
It’s the software the runs this site. It’s a version of WordPress that uses Smarty for templating support and multiple blogs can be runs from the same install!

Still, something to try later..
