As some of you have noticed, I upgraded (and temporarily broke!) the availability checker last night. You can now check everything (ADSL, SDSL, NTL, Telewest, Bulldog and Easynet) using only a postcode. Easynet checking is much faster now (both with postcode and phone number), and a timeout has been introduced for the NTL checker (http://sales.ntl.com is up and down like a yo-yo!).
I've had a lot of requests for some new barometers (or similar) over the past couple of months. Sadly, I'm severely lacking in the creativity and graphics department, so if anyone has any suggestions as to what barometer designs they might like to see, let me know. Keep in mind that one of the big problems is ensuring that both the foreground and background colours are configurable - this means that anti-aliasing on curves becomes a nightmare!
Finally, North Devon Broadband, a group of comprising of campaigners in Bickington, Bradworthy, Chulmleigh, Clovelly, Horn's Cross, Instow, Newton Tracey, Pilton, Swimbridge, Torrington, and Woolacombe have got in touch with me. If any other campaigners in the area would like to get involved in the group, drop them an email at ndevonbb@yahoo.co.uk.
That's all for now folks :) |
