What is Up Your Ego?
It’s basically a phrase that means sod all. It’s something that I saw when I was doing a random search about five years ago and decided to register the domain name.
I’ve been blogging under Up Your Ego since 2003 using everything from a CMS I built myself with a Access Database and ASP through Blogger and on to Wordpress, which is what I’m using now.
I work as a new media journalist specialising in tech, politics and alternative music. I’m married to Sammy with three children, Oceana-Skye, Jaden-Taylor and Kailen-James.

@ekcol – I haven’t but will look into it – are you on the new 4 or 8mb broadband or stil.l on the old system?
@ekcol – just to follow up on this for you – got this from Channel 4:
“This is a known issue and we have not intentionally blocked the Channel Islands. We are working on the issue now and expect the service to become available again in the next 24 hours. Obviously we’re sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused.”
Awesome, good sleuthing.

Do even more for Movember! http://bit.ly/4Fh9b1
Very cool! Movember is definitely making progress in Canada also. All the guys at work are cultivating our mo’s as well. I even made this shirt to commemorate the event:

TV content is not broadcast on the internet. The viewer has to actively access it.
Entering a paid for password before being allowed to watch is an excellent idea, which I am sure the BBC would have thought of, before streaming live content from their website unrestricted. Their action is just an attempt to tax all British residents, while the rest of the world can access the same content for free. This is racial discrimination.
Hi Do what a lot of UK Businesses are doing and tune into http://www.rfmradio.co.uk Royalty Free Music Radio, NO PRS or PPL Fees if this is all you listen to.
Its as good as your mainstream radio stations just that we use quality unsigned bands, Profesional Dj hosted shows, News, Weather and entertainment.
O and did I say they were looking for a sponsor, is Kwik fit reading this?
New website – new look – new sounds – NO FEES – No Hassle – Music as it should be
Why not get Gelan & Rebeka Swift to write an England anthem? There Charlton anthem “Endless Journey” is absolutely stunning!
Quite agree, have been saying this over at FG for some time now, along with numerous other people.
I’m sure they haven’t done too much of 15/16 yet, as the TG Live Tour (which I think we all agree is part of the problem) is ongoing. I think they could easily cut back to one season this year, plus, say, a Christmas Special, and that might be enough to right things.
Either way you’re right, the most diehard fans would prefer quality over quantity.
Should we write to Andy wilman, even if he doesn’t read it?
Lots of of bloggers not too pleased with this new iPad.There was just 2 much hoopla over it and alot blogers got turned off.Thing is, I can actually see great deal of the cool potential of the gizmo. Third-party apps for working with tunes, games, newspapers and magazine and books, all kinds of awesome stuff, but they failed to sell it very well (aside from the books). It smells kinda not finished
