I'm a little concerned. It would seem cdd has been right 3 times recently.

Cdd, please return to normal posting form. You are upsetting me. (do you capitalise a lowercase username when it appears as the first word in a sentence?)

I don't know. Ask kd lang.

Actually this raises an interesting question.. if starting a sentence with something like "iPod" or "iPhone", would it become IPod and IPhone? Eg... "IPods have been selling in record numbers this year..."

If something is a name and in lowercase you damn well keep it in lowercase.

Yes, but only due to technical limtitations...

I'm quite disturbed about my run of rightness too. However I have been wrong at least three times yesterday as well, so I think it's balancing out. It could be because I'm still too infatuated with some programme called "H2O Just Add Water" which includes someone with MY name. Terribly impressive. Not the programme, you understand, but the coincidence.

Yay! You're wrong, cdd. Ok, only by spelling, but you're still wrong.

I've considered changing the look of Metropol to be more like the amazing sites designed by John Price of johnprice.com

Here is a sneaky peek at our forthcoming new look

Ha ha!
If I didn't wake up on a Sunday morning with a hangover, that would certainly induce the same nausea.

Well, can I tell you... I just took a look at some of John Price's work there. I would describe it as inspiring and very inspirational. That is a man who just *gets* the internet.

What ARE the 5 key principals? I suspect the first one is using the right kind of "principles"

He's VERY fond of his hand-filmed mapvigation.

As a resident of the south seas, Nick, will you be particular interested in his lessons. Your website just isn't video centric enough. I can't quite work out where to click as a returning student however...
