A friend of mine who is a dental professional liked the work I was doing on InvestEd and figured that it would be a great idea to do something similar for dentists. So he pestered me until I agreed to build a site with him - given that there was virtually nothing out there for [...]

Just did a software upgrade and a slight design update for my ZooBeat Forums … I think it looks a lot cleaner now.
Traffic is growing, we have new members (including quite a few new international members), and new forum topics to discuss.
Come and join in the discussion if you are interested in Zoos and animal [...]

I’ve just done a redesign of the photo gallery - streamlining the navigation and giving the site a cleaner look.
I haven’t uploaded many photos recently - I will go through my most recent photos and upload some that are interesting. I’m also preparing to go back through our entire collection of photo negatives and [...]

Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Why ? Because we can !
So get on ye scurvy dogs - and remember … Keep to the Code.

ADSL line speed:
Upstream: 1018500 (bits per second)
Downstream: 16752800 (bits per second) … that’s about 16Mbps … I was wondering why things were faster all of a sudden

I’m hoping I’ll be able to squeeze a bit more speed out of the line once I’ve done some [...]

I’ve done some software upgrades and added a heap of new features to my ZooBeat Forums, including a new integrated photo gallery, plus RSS feeds of zoo news from a variety of sources.
If you enjoy zoos, or are interested in animal conservation, have a look at ZooBeat :: The News on Zoos.

I’ve put together a new theme and layout for my blog.
I hope to include more photos from my rather sizable collection (over 14,000 at last count), in my Photo Gallery and also here in my blog.

My father writes three blogs:

Trevor’s Birding is a blog about his life-long passion for bird watching (birding)

Trevor’s Travels is a blog about his trips and holidays

Trevor Hampel is a blog about his other passion for writing

The birding and travel blogs have a lot of photos in them - more of which can be seen in [...]

My mother writes a blog: Mallee Native Plants … which I set up and host for her.
I recently updated the design of the blog to give it a more unique feel (it was originally based on my own blog template, so looked a lot like mine).
I stole some of my mother’s photos out of the [...]

I’ve managed to get back into the swing of things with my Lotus Channel blog … and I’ve redesigned the theme to make it a bit more streamlined. I’m pretty happy with it.
Must do a new theme for this blog too.
