The biggest bugbear of using Prezi at the moment is, besides the rubbish Prezi Next which they seem keen to push at the expense of an otherwise excellent Classic is the lack of animated loops. When they dropped the flash player, they dropped support for .swf files and they absolutely refuse, despite repeated user requests from users (and […]
Like many, I took advantage of the free upgrade from the awful Windows 8.x to Windows 10, but the time of that free upgrade has passed. If like me, you sometimes have to “powerwash” (to use a Chromebook phrase) a machine, but it was originally Windows 7 or 8 you might feel stuck without an […]
I love an animated GIF… whether it’s a currently hot meme, or a classic quote or just an illustration which is better animated, then the moving, repeated image is king. The wonderful Fr Eddie Green uses them extensively in his Worshpr toolkit. Creating them from scratch (as opposed to just simply downloading them) used to […]
A few years ago (2013) I listed the Albums which I felt had shaped me as a person: not necessarily the best albums but the ones which shaped me see http://www.frsimon.uk/my-favourite-albums-of-all-time/ My son, Liam, mentioned that he had been compiling his own list of movies, and so it set me thinking.

To save, Right-Click and select “Save As…” or “Save Image As…” depending on your browser. This is the chunky version (641px x 802 transparent png) and this […]
I love to use the get_iplayer app to record and keep my favourite Programmes, after all, my licence fee has paid for them. Unfortunately, it’s interface is text only and that can be a little intimidating for some, so a couple of years ago, I wrote a GUI front end for it in the AutoIT […]
Prezi, thankfully, still supports animations, but not as we now know and love them. With one simple step, however, you can insert animated gifs and take other short movies and insert them into your Prezi presentation to liven them up. Although Prezi does not support animated gifs (yet, hint, hint) you can easily convert these […]
Download Download the Zip Files file (from my public dropbox folder) Right click on the above link and select “SAVE AS..” or “SAVE TARGET AS…” or “SAVE LINK AS..” 2017: As the amount of data included continues to increase, the file is too large to import as a single year/file, so this year for the first […]
It’s a great phone, and I have no regrets about choosing it over the Samsung or the Sony at the time (I played with all three side-by-side), but that was some time ago and now 16Gb of internal storage is frankly a little light. Of course you can add an SD Card for additional storage […]
