Applying for jobs


Here's an idea - I should just go and work for monster.com. I would fix that cover letter window, for a start.

Teletext

I have now achieved the debatable accolade of having been on Teletext twice. The first time it was when Digitizer still existed - someone requested a solution to Simon 2 and I sent in my guide. The trouble was that the paragraph I supplied was too long and they had to trim it, meaning my carefully crafted help came out largely as gibberish. This time, it's as part of a feature on freeware games.

Teletext

For anyone outside Europe, I should explain that Teletext is a basic news/information service broadcast through the television, and is run by an old BBC Micro somewhere in Broadcasting House's attic. It's a bit like the Internet, except even more unreliable and slow.
