I couldn’t resist, putting this image of my current desktop on the site. This Winamp Skin comes complete with speakers that actually move with the music! It’s just like having one of those posh mini separates systems sitting right there on the desktop.

Having sorted out the hardware for recording sermons: a lapel radio microphone connected to a Tascam DP 01 I needed to find a suitable method of converting the .wav files to an mp3 file compact enough to listen over the internet.

There is a lot of rubbish out there in the .wav editing department, but I came across WavePad, which is free for the basic version. It is excellent! It does the editing with no fuss and allows saving to mp3 with a choice of rates. Perfect.

I was scratching around for something to make life easier for me in terms of analysing the log files from my web server. There’s plenty to choose from out there, but I found this one pretty simple to use and easy to understand. It comes in a ‘lite’ version which looks great, and also a professional version with more features. i suspect I’ll be making a purchase soon…
