The stats program I use for this site lets me know how peole arrive; a few use the wiredjester.co.uk URL, which is nice, because it means they’re people who actually wanted to come and read the site, but a lot arrive through Google. Looking through the terms they use really makes me think that perhapsContinue reading “Arrivals Desk: Helping Out Those Who Just Got Off The Google Express”

Email issues
For some reason, my alex [at] thewiredjester.co.uk e-mail address has stopped forwarding my email on. It’s all just disappearing into a big black server hole somewhere… So if you want to get in touch, leave a comment, or drop me a line at alexwatson117 [at] hotmail.com. Thanks 🙂

So here we are: I suppose I see this place as having two functions – one, as a place to put all myContinue reading “Behind the scenes”
World-wide web
Like Ronseal, it appears the World Wide Web does exactly what it says on the tin. Have added a statistics/tracking element to the site, which gives me some great feedback. Including that the site has had people from Russia and the UAE visiting, which is neat 🙂
All licensed, all welcome
Hello! Welcome to my weblog, The Wired Jester. TWJ – almost the same acronym as the Wall Street Journal, so hopefully that will confer some authority. Or maybe not. No, the name was mainly chosen becuase I do like Jesters and Fools. The most famous Fool is the strange and melancholy one in Shakespeare’s KingContinue reading “All licensed, all welcome”
