For those of you who were wondering what exactly goes on when Simon does his vlog now you can find out. Co hosted by his assistant Barry Savage this week, the week of August, they discuss all the latest science news.

I made a lot of progress today with all the many things that needed to be done.

The old site at Spainful Films is now down. Goodbye and thank you to Rapidweaver for making it happen. The new super slimline index page is now up. Looks good but the lack of links on it mean I’ll probably jump down the old google listings. It took a lot of nerve to put the podshow link on there as I’m still not convinced that it’s safe to take down my old feed. The amount of problem I’ve had with their site has made me very cautious but now every episode seems to be on the new feed there’s no reason to keep the old - and truly terrible - feed that got me started. I suppose it’s just swapping on set of headaches for another because the hosting + blogger + feedburner model was terrible.

On this site are now all the links to the media files though I’ve yet to update all the links and add pretty pictures. What do you think of the new colours, I’m very happy.

Tomorrow I intend to do a little more work in SpainfulX and perhaps a little editing of a new episode.

I have now established the links to all of my media including all the audio files. This information in itself was hard to find. I have pasted a rough list of all of these links on the page above marked downloads. Sadly, as it is just a rough list they are just text so you will need to copy paste them into you browser.

I will soon make them all buttons in the blog section, this requires writing more code! But at the moment I’m happy to know where all the files are. It has taken a couple of weeks to find all this out as there were many dead links.

At the top of the list is also the links to the new feeds.

I’m glad I’m having more luck getting to grips with word press. Especially that I can now make new pages including the about page and the download page. I’ve yet to find out how to remove the annoying conradslater.com from the top of the page.

I’d like to change the black background here.

some time later…

So I started twiddling and before I knew the whole blog was corrupt! I thought I’d lost it all. Eventually I managed to get some of it back my the skin I’d been using is gone now.

I think this is a sign that I should use a new theme/skin/css.

It wasn’t that great anyway. And it gives me an excuse to do more photoshop nonsense rather than all the other stuff I should be doing.
