Sumo Paint is awesome! I love online painting programs, and this one really impressed me. Some of the paint packages I’ve found and blogged about have been fun, but you always feel like you are just playing with a cut-down web application- Sumo Paint looks and feels like a proper, fully-featured art program like Paint [...]
I’ve just bought myself a hand held digital microscope for training days (the one’s I’ve used before are owned by the Scitt I work for) I bought a Veho from Amazon for about £45. I’m quite pleased with it, although the one annoyance is the software coming on a mini-cd which wont go into my [...]
Now my favourite online timer is still the fab music-playing one over at classtools.net, but I’ve just found a new one that is very cool because of its simple efficiency.

Yesterday I decided to dust off my rudimentary Flash skills and have a go at making a new flash resource to use on an interactive whiteboard with younger pupils. I wanted to make something that could be used to stimulate writing or discussion like the Superhero generator etc. So I had a go at a [...]
I’m going to have one more attempt to get this blog running smoothly on WordPress. I’ve reinstalled the files I need, and created a new database. I’m hoping this will fix the odd issues I was having when I added new posts. I’m going to leave things for a day or so to see if [...]
