New site launched at last

Well here it is: SFFMedia version 3.0. We're still ironing out some bugs, but so far so good. There's been a few server drop outs, so you might experience a bit of rough surfing over the next couple of days. Hopefully we'll get all the bugs ironed out by the end of the week.

Time enough at last

Gerard and I decided to add personalised blog sections to the website ages ago, but I've been very slow getting my section off the ground. Finally found some time. Anyway, hello!
