It was a hell of a lot harder than you’d think to get a short-term contract with dongle + hub for my flat. But I’ve done it. Mainly with the help of the great team at Cancom in Brighton, which is where I seemed to spend most my lunchtime this week (trying to resist looking [...]
Screen break! Keeping away from computers for a bit
Mar 21st, 2009
Off on holiday for a bit, and much welcomed it is too. So if you’ve ended up on this blog, and want to contact me (non-urgently) for the purposes of work drop me an email judith at journalism.co.uk and I’ll get in touch on my return. I’ll be back on email from March 30 and [...]
Housewarming: I’m all moved in to my new self-hosted house
Jan 15th, 2009
Just a quick note on the new domain and blog home.
While I quite liked my old Wordpress.com theme it was extremely limiting (and it disturbed me that a Tory blogger had the exact same one… it was like bumping into Ann Widdecombe and realising you’ve got the same outfit on*) and didn’t let me try out [...]
Due to the sad condition of my laptop - its start-up drive is very full (it doesn’t even want to be backed up) - this blog will be a little quiet on the personal post front until I cure its various maladies, but I will be posting my Delicious links and a daily round-up from [...]
So, I thought it was about time to try and back up my files and set about sorting out photos, first clearing out all the mountains of junk. Then today, I opened iPhoto and I don’t know if I ignored a warning message, or what, but suddenly everything had disappeared. It’s a very scary [...]
I want to push my Delicious feeds through to the site but trouble fixing it up to be tailored (so the blog doesn’t get all my shared stuff - there’s way too much) … hopefully will get it sorted soon. It may be a case of doing it half manually… Tips appreciated.
Working…

I fink it’s working! It should now auto-direct from www.fromtheonline.com and fromtheonline.co.uk. Happy days! But I still haven’t:
managed to get a big(ger) RSS button in the right-hand side
managed to find a way of putting social networking buttons on the bottom of posts, or in the right-hand side
Meanwhile, I’m thinking about Sarah Brown’s appearance on the [...]
Here we go…
Sep 21st, 2008
It’s a bit weird, since I spend my days at work blogging/media musing, but what kind of a web journo would I be without a blog? The idea is to link to content I’ve produced during the day and add extra ideas and snippets, and see how it goes from there. I’ve put an RSS [...]
Hi, if you’ve chanced upon this, welcome. It’s a work in progress and should get going in the next week or so. Come back soon!
