K has a new Blog.

My ol' mucker K has finally given into the temptation of AdSense related tomfoolery and started a new blog. It'll most likely comprise of XBox 360 reviews (both hardware and software), rants about bad drivers and web design tips & code. Oh, and Social Commentary, whatever that is.

Reggae Reggae Sauce is bloody gorgeous.

Over the weekend I nabbed a couple of bottles of Reggae Reggae Sauce which was featured on the BBC's show Dragons' Den some time ago.

We had the family coming over so we dug some chicken out of the freezer and decided to slap it all together with some rice. Some of the chicken turned out to be pork but it all went down exceedingly well with a few onions and some Naans.

The sauce is really very nice indeed. It's not quite as hot as the last one M made, which had our eyes and throats burning before we'd even started eating, and basically turned the kitchen into a no-go zone for a few hours, but given it's a consumer-grade sauce (haha), what it lacks in fire-breathing ability it makes up for in taste. It's quite tangy while having a good kick, and I recommend it.

The only downer is shelf-life I guess. Because there are no preservatives in it, you have to use the bottle within five days of opening. This won't be a problem at our house, however :-)

IE ImageMap 'Bug'

Maybe a bug, maybe a strict adhereance to HTML coding regs, but if you miss the '#' from an imagemap reference it won't work in IE. I found this out the hard way. Eg:

<IMG SRC="someimage" ISMAP USEMAP="#somemap">

If you miss out the '#', it won't work in Internet Explorer, but it will work in Firefox et al.
