qwghlm.co.uk : because all the other domain names were taken
Toys
There are some silly Flash pages on this site, including:
The Daily Mail-o-matic
Freshly laid Daily Mail, on demand.
The David Blunkett policy maker
Draconian rhetoric, whenever you want it!
Alastair Campbell’s Wheel of Retribution
Because he’s right and you f***ing well know it.
Michael Howard Sings The Smiths
For no sane reason whatsoever.
Other toys
I have also done the odd non-political Flash widget while practicing coding Actionscript. These include:
- Floaty Lines
- Circles
- Jack Bauer tells the time
None of these three are particularly interesting, to be honest.
Photoshopping
I occasionally photoshop stuff for amusement and send it to b3ta – you can see a showcase of my best work on my b3ta profile page.

Is the online presence of Chris Applegate, geek and wannabe polymath.
This is my personal blog, where I blog about anything I like, but more often than not it's to do with digital culture, society, politics and the interaction between all three. All views here are, of course, mine personally and not necessarily those of my employers or associates.
As well as what I blog here, you might be interested in what I have to say on Twitter or my linklog on Delicious.
