I came across this article on Hard[OCP] last night. It should give people a good idea of whether their machine will handle Doom 3 before they buy it. I was quite surprised myself at how well it ran on my lowely Radeon 9600! It would appear also that the game still looks curiously stunning at 800x600, with much better framerates than 1024x768.

Ok, so I'd be the first to admit that Apples iPod and iPod Mini are two sexy looking bits of kit, but I'd never buy one. In response to Cheah Chu Yeow's post pointing to 'Five reasons not to buy an iPod', here are my reasons. Ironically none of them are the same as any of the five given in the article (well, maybe one!).

I'm confident it's affecting both my productivity and my creativity so I'm going to try an experiment somewhat inspired by begriffs article [Going "Write-Only"](http://begriffs.com/posts/2015-04-20-going-write-only.html). I'm going to avoid social media and short-form reading for a week (to start). This means no Twitter, Hacker News, Reddit, Arstechnica or any other sources of bite sized information. I will restrict myself to long-form reading like books or articles I've saved to Instapaper (of which I have quite a queue!). diff --git a/_posts/2016-08-10-the-complete-guide-to-optimising-web-images.markdown b/_posts/2016-08-10-the-complete-guide-to-optimising-web-images.markdown index f0068ac..9aacaab 100644 --- a/_posts/2016-08-10-the-complete-guide-to-optimising-web-images.markdown +++ b/_posts/2016-08-10-the-complete-guide-to-optimising-web-images.markdown @@ -1,8 +1,10 @@ --- +title: The Complete Guide to Optimising Web Images +date: 2016-08-10 13:23:41 Z +categories: +- web design +- images layout: post -title: "The Complete Guide to Optimising Web Images" -date: 2016-08-10T13:23:41+00:00 -categories: [web design, images] --- Optimising images for your website can be a bit of a black art, but it's well worth doing as the bandwidth savings can be large.
