Update on stuff
About to stop blogging for a week - got a marriage to be at (mine).
What's been happening? Spent ages trying to get WDA working between my Draytek router and my Airport Extreme. Almost there (with beta firmware updates in both the router and airport) but no DHCP working when laptop roams to the airport. Not sure why (and cos it's all beta, so is the documentation, so it is either not working or I've set it up wrongly). Great signal downstairs now, though. Useless, but strong.
2MB connection from my ISP now - well done Plus.net. But now I notice how slow web servers are.....
Student projects suggest there could be an interesting summer ahead - some good ideas and students. Some colleagues moving on, reducing the research environment somewhat. Been starting to write some papers, but really clearing the decks of marking and admin and other stuff. Website coming along (the School's one) but still all back end stuff. But Photoshop has (nearly) turned up so can start being creative now too.....
Too much to do as ever, planning to take on less and less if I can. But potential advisorial role to regional development agency looks interesting and useful..... Flikr have got back to Sylvie and me, so that's a few shared sites we can start to get data off. So many research projects on the go now - need to get some funding in to pursue them all. Watch this space for updates.
