Well, the images have been uploaded and things look a wee bit more presentable now.
Now I can write a few more thoughts, such as why can't someone invent a universal system which would allow all of us to have event dates included in emails directly added to calendar software?
Apple's OS can do this, but bindows cannot. Sounds like a killer feature for Windows 7. And why the heck is it Windows 7??
Windows 3.1, 95, 98, Millennium, XP, Vista, Windows 7. Should be Windows 9, seeing as there was a Windows 3, which means Windows 95 was Windows 4, etc, etc!
Crazy!

Styling RSS Feeds
Until I saw my main Blog from Italy site being featured, via an RSS feed, on the GlobalPost site, I did not really know that it was possible to style feeds.
Now I know that it can be done - as long as you know css and, use a plugin for Wordpress which can help you add the style information - just Google 'Feedstyler'.
Now my feed looks better, but not perfect. Need to develop my css skills!
Actually, looking at many of the sites I've subscribed to via Google Reader, it's surprising just how few bother to supply styled feeds - even some quite big names.
If you see all images pushed hard over to the left in your feed reader, then this means the feed is not being styled.
On the other hand, those using the Blogger platform who pop images in the centre of the page seem to get their images positioned in the same way in their feeds.
Wordpress developers take note: Please supply a 'feed.css' style sheet!

Google Chrome plus Wordpress Blog - no go
Don't know why, but I cannot access the admin area of my Wordpress powered site when using the Chrome browser.
Very strange. In Firefox, I can do what I want to do.
I've tweaked Chrome's settings, but to no avail. Strange.

Yet Another Blog!
TT from Italy or Tech Thoughts from Italy is my way of getting a few things off my chest with regard to the technology I use, or would like to use.
Posting will be occasional and will be about my experiences with technology.
When I'm not tinkering here, I'm running Blog from Italy, teaching English, translating and writing the odd article for other sites.
