Title: Just to explain my absence...

It's due to being homeless.  :o

Not that I was overly active in the first place (but then neither are the forums), but just thought you might want to know.   Not much more to say really. :(

...And we're sorted again.

A rather tiny room, all the same, but it's good enough & rather cheap, considering.  Now I'm on a money-making drive - so if anyone knows anyone who wants a website, please chuck them my way. :)

Is London an option for you?

There's a full-time option here: http://jobs.37signals.com/jobs/1903 (http://jobs.37signals.com/jobs/1903)

Or there's a freelance PHP position, remote with occasional meetings in London, available through a friend of a friend.

Oo-er.  I wouldn't want to live in London (far too costly in the half-decent areas), but the remote one sounds interesting... care to furnish me with more info? :)  You've got my e-mail address, yes?  Many thanks. :D

There are tree sitters at my school... they've caused a lock down of one of the science buildings, so we've been displaced to an inferior room.  :angry: Another thing that burns me about it is that they aren't even student from our school!

I've had ... two computer changes. One when I moved to college (I normally used the family computer), and another when my computer's motherboard broke... I made a new tower for myself  :D I have USB 2.0 now  :hmmm:

Intel is working fellow USB 3.0 Promoters Group members [...] to release the USB 3.0 specification in the first half of 2008.
[...]
There's typically a one- to two-year lag between the release of the specification and the availability of the technology, so USB 3.0 products should likely arrive in 2009 or 2010

Until then I'm be happy having USB 2.0 instead of that slow crappy USB 1.1
