I’ve been helping set up a music website/blog for a friend of mine.

After uploading all the music over at last.fm where you can listen to the tracks, we took a while finding a simple way to sell the music on the site.

The main requirements were for an easy way to sell downloadable products and accept paypal payments.

We finally came up with a plugin for wordpress called e-commerce which works well, and we used that to create the shop.

You can see the finished website here.

The Entertainer Media Center is featured in the 2008 FLOSS Media Center State of the Art report.
You can download the report from here

We are in the top 10 “most prominent FLOSS projects” for media center which is a really good result for such a young project.

I played the front nine at a very wet Brailsford Golf Course on Wednesday.

The picture is from behind the right bunker on the first hole.

I got my first par score on hole 4 which is a par 3 so I was quite pleased with myself.

Golf is one of those sports where even if you are playing pretty awfully (which I am most of the time) it is still great fun.

I’ve finally come up with a revision plan for my exams in October. I’ve taken the specimen exam this week and as there aren’t any past papers I’m re-reading the 12 textbooks and then taking the specimen again.

Hopefully this will show up the areas which I’ll be needing to work hard on in the last week leading up to the exams.
