Have got these two working almost as I would like, along with Twitter. Now just got to get Last.fm to do what I want and I'll have most of the Web 2.0 tools that I commonly use on this page. Then there's they rest of the site to overhaul from being static pages to something slightly more dynamic. In theory it can all be done through Movable Type but we shall see...

I've now added twitter updates and de.licio.us links. Twitter seems to be appearing nicely and was no problem. Getting the other one to line up is proving one of those finickety nightmares of tweekery. I have stopped trying after two days. Any ideas?

Going to add the Flickr badge as well when I get a moment - I know how to do that, it's relatively straightforward.

It's a totally new interface so bear with me if things start getting rather broken while I'm tinkering under the hood.

I've just swapped a couple of things around. Why on earth I need a "News" page when it's so infrequent is a question I have now answered by getting rid of it and stick my Movable Type content in the main slot.

I might need to do a bit more work on this idea to make the site a bit more consistent. It should also give me a chance to drop in more elements that I'm experimenting with/using, such as twitter, facebook and flickr.

I know that a few of my sites have become a bit stuck in the past. I'd forgottten just how much time it takes to do all those things when you've got a full time bunch of other paying stuff to deal with.

I've moved my hosting service from freezone to servage.net who so far have been excellent in the package the offer and in their support service.

On the list of things to do are:

- An update on various bits of code and parts of the site
- Sort out EchoSound Location's myspace materials
- Start on getting sponsorship for the Etape site and for my ride
- Get a few paying clients or a new job
