Okay im not really the guy to post about news related stuff as James' Blog is not a news blog, (thats what BBC news is for!) but I have been partial to post about events such as when everyone thought the world was going to end, you know that big Hadron Collider (Which somehow my post got onto Indian Television!) But anyway the latest news recently thats breaking headlines and always on the frontpage is the Swine Flu pandemic. Yes it's now a pandemic (Im not too sure it should of been raised to one) but thats just me. The flu mainly harvested by pigs and orginating from mexico, anyone unlucky to be a tourist there at this time has a chance of contracting the flu, but I really think the media should tone down on how there going about reporting on Swine Flu.
You may have noticed that I haven't been active in the March month as much as I'd hoped. The main reason behind this is because of exams that are approaching in about a months time and im finding myself not having time to post on my blog and generally my internet activities (That probably sounds wrong) but yeah I thought I'd post this to announce that im still here. Infact If you've noticed im still here reply to people posting comments on my various articles but just can't find the time to post new content.
Like I said, I have exams coming up in about a months time, so im finding myself revising alot which is really cutting into various things like gaming and blogging. God I hate revision, It's really annoying don't we all just love it. But yeah thats one of the main reasons why I haven't been posting much recently.
Another reason is because I also have a unofficial job going on. Because im a bit of a gamer I play all sorts of FPS games, and one of the main ones I play is Counter Strike Source, about a year ago and friend and I invested in a Counter Strike Source server. It's a 16 slots server which over the months has got quite popular, and as admin, I make sure the server runs smoothly, not only that but I am the server operator so I control the server both in game via FTP and admin panel. Because of the server becoming popular I've been talking to regular players and the've been giving me feedback on performance and other factors of the server and I've been fine tuning and performance maintainance. I've been working on the server alot lately but it's been worth it. The server is now performing better than ever and players have reported good feedback on my changes.
Generally busy really, so im finding hard to post new stuff on my blog but I've got some exciting new articles planned in the upcoming future so watch this space! Don't worry though im still here. Im still managing (Just) to check my emails and respond to all your lovely people leaving me comments on articles and posts!
Recently there has been barely any updates on James' Blog, no new tutorials or interesting posts, Or anything thats really that great. Well seems lame, but this because of my main PC being out of action after the power supply (The PSU) got fried, in some bizare and random way, but today I got it replaced and it's good to be seeing Windows XP again! Any updates that I've previously posted have been on a laptop (Which has a cracked screen so I have been using my PC monitor externally to be able to half use it) so with this half functioning laptop I have only basically been able to post updates and thats about it. Well finally the main PC is back!
I have only recently began to use the service known as twitter but since day one I've seemed to fall in love with it. In my opinion the idea of twitter is genius, but the idea of twitter is often mis-understood alot and is compared to sites like MySpace and Facebook (No im not linking them, you should know them already!) Although I guess twitter is a sort of social networking site, it's defiantly in a league of it's own if someone classes it as one.
Myself I've always liked the idea of Halloween, one special day where you can knock on any door and ask them for sweets! Genius! Now thats im 16 I am sensible and man enough to let the 10 years olds do this now and I become that random guy. Halloween tends to be one of those mixed views topic, and sadly the older generation seem to be quite against it, now the fact of getting your house egg/flour bombed by "Bad-Ass" teenagers is probably the main contributing point of why many people dislike Halloween (I have a BB Gun incase any one tries it), but then you see small children with there parents dressed up walking in groups going from house to house you have to step and thinking "bless" I mean it's all for the youngers really, there going to have fun, and opening the door and giving them sweets will make them happy because im sure all there brain activity on Halloween will be "SWEEEEEEEEETSSSSSS!"
James? I am here! It's been a while since I've posted something new, but I've been checking here almost daily for spam and emails, but haven't had time to blog anything, in fact I've just come back from a long weekend holiday in Center Parcs (The one in the Lake District) there are several in the UK now a days! I've been over a dozen times now but Center Parcs rocks, you never get bored of it, plus it was a long weekend stay so I missed Friday and Monday off school so double bonus or what!
