RSS Feed finally up and functional at last after much talk , I pulled a "most of the nighter" to get it up and running, A link to it will always be on the main page and also on the weblog page just click on the "RSS Valid" image like the one to the right. I contains the last three posts, The "RSS Valid" image is similar as the radio userland "XML" image( ) i.e. that there is an RSS feed present on this site, You can use this feed in your current aggregator or in Aggreg8, once I get it finished that is. The Feed is in RSS 1.0 format and I propose having a 2.0 version soon too. The 1.0 feed is valid, and you can check it's validity here. Anyway happy Aggregating folks,

The Exam results are out today (should be out by now [4pm]) so I am head wrecked. I'll post the minute I get them, I have been doing loads of research for my 4th Year project (Aggreg8). As I have mentioned before you can follow my progress on my Aggreg8 weblog.

4th Year First Semester Exam Results:

I'm not too happy about DSP and I think I will contest that mark as I was looking at the exam paper last night and I definitely feel that I did beter than 41%. I'm very happy with the rest though especially OO Design which was one of the hardest modules, as was Databases.

My Car passed her NCT test today no bother to her. I now have a road legal car untill February 2005. Which is great as it will still be fine by the time I get back from OZ.

I am starting to get stresed out already about college with projects coming up already. Our security ptotocols project is due on the 18th February(Only the first part, there are 3 more parts to be done too). It seems ok though and I hope to have it done by the end of next week….Whoever thought that final year would be hard work?.

You can see my college timetable here Not too many lectures as you can see but there is a whole lot of independent study to be done. My streams (Software Engineering) timetable is here.

 No more Holiday for Philipousis(that's me). Back to the hard graft of college. I had my first lecture today..Security protocols where we were given our first project already. Sounds like a good module though.

I got the results for my Weblogs What, How and Why?. essay….80% which i am very happy with as it was a risky topic to choose for the essay as it was not directly related to our course work.

As y'all might have noticed I have changed the color scheme and the layout of my webpage(for the better I hope). All the links are still all in the same places really only some are split into menus and so forth.

I will be starting to work on Aggreg8 now so keep an eye on the projects progress.

A very good link for all y'all that wish to set up a domain for yourselves, is http://www.zoneedit.com. A free nameserver host. Another great free service (although I have upgraded to member status) is http://www.fastmail.fm It is the sleekest and fastest web mail about….truly excellent.

Paddy and Colm leave for OZ on Thursady so this Blog is in their honour, Have a good one lads and do us proud….see you there in June. [watch out for the lady boys in thailand].

Well the Exams are finally over and I have some time to myself. I had a mad weekend…especially saturday night (Dooley's going away party) in the Odeon. Everybody went absolutely rasher.

Never ever have to look at another Database theory book ever ever again…..woohoo.
The exam was a fair one with no tricks. I knew the stuff pretty well and I had passed the paper within the first 15 minutes which is always a good thing. Anyway Cryptography and Digital Signal processing left…. so Back to the grind stone.
