IDAT104: Presentation
16th November 2006
I don’t like giving presentations. I especially don’t like giving presentations on subjects that are of little interest to me and that I don’t fully understand. Well I had to give one of those presentations today and it wasn’t much fun. Luckily we were in a group of 4, which sort of moves the attention from the audience around a bit which gave me time to reflect and just generally relax after doing my poorly prepared piece. Another good thing was the room only had about…

13th November 2006
A bit late posting about this one, but we were given a new assignment for the IDAT102 module a couple week ago which is to design and build a website for people requiring basic information about traveling abroad. The assignment is intended to test our understanding and knowledge of html and basic JavaScript functionality and how they interact with each other.
The website is to include information on 5 different countries of our choice, 1 from each continent. Information such as climate,…

∞Things to come
07th November 2006
The past few days I have had a little bit of spare time on my hands and I have been working on a few things that will hopefully be going live in the next week or so.
- Work section
- I’m currently working on a portfolio section to go on this website, rather then just linking to Solution:Web. This isn’t going to be anything fancy, just a simple page focussing on some recent work and projects I have completed.
- New client work
- In a couple weeks time… Continue reading

∞SOFT131: Test results
02nd November 2006
On Monday morning we had our first relatively important test for SOFT131, which counts for 25% for this specific module. The test was on VBScript, which wasn’t so bad. The language doesn’t take very long to pick up and so far the module has been pretty good going.
Well we got our results from the test this afternoon and I’m pretty pleased to say I got 38.5 out of 50 (77%), which as far as I’m aware is the equivalent to a First (more than 70%). As soon as we finished…

31st October 2006
Happy Halloween everybody! My flatmates and I are playing hosts to a halloween party tonight, which could get a little messy. Any Plymouth uni folks reading this are welcome to pop along to the Randor Halls, block 6.2. If you can, try and dress up. I will post some images of what we are dressing up as when we have some. The lads in the flat aren’t sticking to what I would consider to be conventional halloween dressing patterns, but it should be a good laugh.
Hope everyone has fun!…

28th October 2006
A week or so ago I posted about a new assignment for the IDAT103 module, which was to produce a splash page for a weather forecast website. The design had to keep within various constraints set in the brief such as file size, dimensions, etc. My end product can be found here. Overall I’m pleased with the end result, despite it not exactly turning out how I had hoped it would.
