Windows Vista is now available. You can get it on a new laptop for quite cheap as well. £400. So I should be getting my laptop soon! Meanwhile, I have entered a competition to win a Acer laptop with Vista home premium from Tesco. So fingers crossed.
If you don't know already. This is an attraction called Airkix where I live. David Beckham did it in Milton Keynes the other week and I want to have a go. Not that I follow David Beckham but it does seem really good. Birthday maybe (December!) If anyone wants to have a look at this lark then I have included a random video of it found on YouTube. If you want to actually go there then it is at the back of the snow dome (Xscape) in central Milton Keynes and any one can wonder in and see it up close. The official website is here.
Due to the problems I was having with my computer, Getting no further than
the XP loading screen, We had to use the RED DISC. It basically resets the computer to how it was when we bought it. So you get all the Packard Bell software, now deleted and my computer is now what you would expect from a brand new XP computer with
nothing but the XP software. It also makes me happy because I get to start my iTunes life again as it was a bit messy before. Still haven't got the Internet back yet.
Microsoft's Zune music player looks alright. Well I already knew what it
looked like. I mean it seems good with the interface and functions. Right?
and... I suppose you will be able to get the Internet on it in some way as well. I made something to show how it would look below. The interface is slightly, well a lot more pretty and imagey than Apple's. Obviously the screen is much bigger so you get a large album art image. It would be great for watching movies too!
1. Simplicity
Vox seems to have a really simple layout and ease of use.
2. Blogging
Unlike Bebo or MySpace. Blogging on Vox is the main feature. It is your 'homepage'. I think that blogging on MySpace is quite poor and on Bebo very simple, too simple.
3. Adverts
There are only really adverts for Vox.
4. No pressurising extras
There are no games to add, no music (as much as I love music) and no other things. Going back to the way that I like it for mainly Blogging.
5. Adding from Youtube
The ability to add videos and search them from Vox is just brilliant. The worlds most popular video site and being able to add videos to your blog that you think people might want to see.
What's the first image that comes up when you Google your name?
They have changed the doors around school. They first painted them in a nice light greeny colour and then painted the usual extreme vivid turquiose over it. What a spoil. Not only this but they have moved the T35 door including door number as a store cupboard outside the main hall. Urm.
First opinions...
This looks like quite a good service. So good that it is my new blog. So sadly www.bloggercrab.com/blogs/mkempster is out the window but this is great. I'll try to keep it updated and it isn't even blocked at school so you never know when I might be bored and decide to post. I've already got one friend to join and am trying to get more.
First Things First
