I’ve lost my Twittin’ mind
You may notice some fairly erratic behaviour from my Twitter sidebar at the moment. It’s because I’m in the process of developing my Twitter Widget further. Continue reading I’ve lost my Twittin’ mind
Logitech Harmony 785 – the pain continues
Foolishly, after recently buying a HD PVR, I decided that I would add the device to my Logitech Harmony 785 Universal Remote. This is a continuance of my earlier adventures with this remote.
Here is a record of my experience attempting to accomplish this seemingly simple task. Continue reading Logitech Harmony 785 – the pain continues
