Site upgrade

Yesterday I app;lied the new 6.16 upgrade. A bit of a worry considering I had to delete all core site files. Had issues with the theme but all was good shortly after...

Why is it that databases often don't import with any ease. I must have imported SQL a thousand time (quite literally) but this has been such a pain...

You know you're Scottish when....

1. You can pronounce McConnochie, Ecclefechan, Milngavie, Sauchiehall St, St Enoch, Auchtermuchty and Aufurfuksake.

2. You actually like deep fried battered pizza from the chip shop.

3. Your used to four seasons in one day.

4. You cant pass a chip/kebab shop without saliva dripping from your mouth.

5. You can fall about drunk without spilling your drink.

6. You can see people wearing shell suits with burberry accessories and think its smart.

7. You measure distance in minutes

Your web site may suck if:

  1. It was designed using an online site builder
  2. You have free hosting
  3. You have to explain to people how to navigate it
  4. It was designed by your cousin, nephew, or 'some guy you know'
  5. Your web site has a domain name so long and complex that no one can remember it
  6. It was created using Microsoft FrontPage
  7. It forces people to scroll horizontally
  8. It has gratuitous use of bleeding-edge technology... especially if you bragged about it
  9. You never bothered to check your spelling

"We now have exactly the same situation as we had at the start of the race, only exactly the opposite"

Some Examples of Augmented Reality

Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements are merged with (or augmented by) virtual computer-generated imagery - creating a mixed reality. The augmentation is conventionally in real-time and in semantic context with environmental elements, like for example sports scores on TV during a match.

With the help of advanced AR technology (e.g. adding computer vision and object recognition) the information about the surrounding real world of the user becomes interactive and digitally usable.
