Geekity Geek

A few random items:

1) Finally got the bathroom light sorted out. Yay. I no longer have to bathe by candlelight.

2) Took delivery of my swanky new cordless, optical, rechargeable mouse. Just because I am a true geek and must have the latest gadgets.

3) I've moved rigby-jones.net and t00b.net across to our lovely new web servers for testing purposes. Both sites should be faster and generally better (unless I break things while finalising the configs).

2) I am a false geek. Bah.

(Eight buttons? Imagine the productivity! On top of your base three, I can imagine the use of another three for copy, cut and paste and I dare say that one for "back" would save a second fifty times a day, but I'm struggling to think of what to do with the eighth.)

Every Gadget Counts!

Well you get the usual left, right and middle wheel. Back and Forward thumb buttons. "Cruise Control" buttons above and below the wheel for even more easy scrolling options, plus a task switch button (think Alt-Tab). Of course these can all be customised to your heart's content.
