So I just used the magic of RSS to import my old HotBlog posts onto here, which was rather cool, and remarkably easy to do! Well done WordPress.

Wow, I just learnt that Array.indexOf does not work in IE. How bad is that?!

Check out here for a simple solution:

	if(!Array.indexOf){
	    Array.prototype.indexOf = function(obj){
	        for(var i=0; i<this.length; i++){
	            if(this[i]==obj){
	                return i;
	            }
	        }
	        return -1;
	    }
	}

Personally, I would’ve done a very similar thing.

Just a little venting of fustration here, but parking in Portsmouth is so bad. Most of the roads are permit holder only (2 hours free parking normally). My girlfriend has had 3 parking tickets recently, she comes to stay at mine quite a lot. One could go to the parking office near the city centre and get these 24-hour permits, but there’s the fustration of getting there. I work office hours, and the parking office is open office hours, which makes it difficult to actually get down there. I can’t even get down there to get my resident permit (even though I don’t really need it as I am lucky enough to have allocated parking). Now I understand that the city council is trying to aim the parking towards residents - but what about visitors? One of my band mates had several parking tickets over my time of living in Portsmouth, and it’s just fustrating.

Someone asked what games I have on my 360, so here is a list. I only really play Call of Duty 4 on Xbox live, but I could be co-erced into playing something else:
