Please bear with me, I’d hoped the transition between my old host and my new one would be smoother than this but due to unforeseen circumstances some aspects have taken longer than they ought to have done. Bendavis.me will be back on soon. In addition, my apologies for the lack of posts lately. Amongst other [...]

Bendavis.me : My personal blog/portfolio/thinking space
It’s not exactly new but I’ve finally got around to moving onto my new myfirehost.com servers and freshened it up with a new theme. I’m still working on it but I’d love to get some feedback anyway. I’m still not sure about a few things, and feel the theme needs more to tie it together. [...]

Linux Mint Generated Button
After a little discussion and some information about how wordpress.com functions from mesanna I’ve quite quickly made the first demo version of a generated button. And here it is. So far it’s really just proof of concept, and its code is a little limited but could very easily and quickly be improved, depending on what [...]
