Previous Identity

I've just discovered that if I go on to the web via MS FreeWeb instead of MSN Explorer I can access my old Personal Space and edit it. This opens up the possibility of talking to myself on H2G2. Weird!

A Famous Birthday!


Just added my birthday (March 14th) to the birthday list.
Same date as Albert Einstein!
Well, I never knew that. I wonder if he was a RELATIVE?

My Space

I've just updated some of My Space using GuideML, my first effort with this language(?). Interesting! (GuideML that is, not My Space). I found the GuideML Clinic useful. I printed out some of the pages so I wouldn't have to keep jumping in and out of it to check syntax etc. It took ages to print out!

Logging in to h2g2

I seem to have a lot of bother geting in to h2g2.

Today I tried and kept getting a 502 Proxy Error. As I am a web dummy I had absolutely no idea what this meant so I sent off an email, giving all the details, to the BBC Webmaster - well I couldn't contact anyone here as I couldn't get in!

After I sent the email I tried to get in to h2g2 again and bingo I'm in.

This either means that the BBC Webmaster supplies instant miracle cures for all your BBC Online problems or a 502 Proxy Error just means that the system is overloaded or something.

IF THAT'S THE CASE WHY CAN'T WEBPAGE MAKING PEOPLE JUST SAY THAT?!?!

eg give us a message like "SYSTEM OVERSUBSCRIBED - TRY AGAIN LATER" and we'll know what you're talking about.
