What do you all do? - UK Web Hosting | Dedicated Server Windows and Linux VPS Forum

**andrew** · #1 (**permalink**) 30-11-2005, 00:48

As it's a new forum, I thought it would be kinda interesting to say hi and introduce myself in the hope that others will too:

I'm Andrew, 20 and from Watford, UK. I'm a student at Lancater University reading for my BA in Music Technology.

I do a little web design here and there, mainly php, with html/xhtml/css/other normal stuff. I also like MySQL Server databases for my website hostings.

Current projects:
chickencam (hosted at mychickencam.com by eukhost)
camera analysis project - a University project which takes a live video feed from a bus stop on campus and synthesises music according to video analysis results of zones in the picture.
dissertation - "A study on recording acoustic guitar for popular music".

Music likes:
I'm a violinist, clarinettist and also dabble with viola and piano.
I like to listen to most music including rock, metal, popular, indie, dance (if it's mixed well and not badly compressed eurgh), classical, jazz, blues.

Andrew

I'm Alex,

I'm in Lancaster too, also reading Music Tech so Andrew is a familiar face (I referred him to EUKhost in the first place. You're welcome.).

Music is pretty much my life, recording, writing and performing. I play Guitar, Bass, 'some drums' and I sing, as well as sequencing and programming.

The two website hostings I have on EUK are band website hostings bluebloodonline.com and razorbladeoscilloscope.com the former is a rock band and the latter everything else.

I actually live in Stratford on Avon in the Midlands which is a cool town although a ot of people who live there disagree.

They're wrong.

My name is Lee and I am 23, currently doing computer studies at Wolverhampton university.

I hope to do a Masters in Web related course at teesside uni next year.

I work freelance for a local established web design company.
I had a few website hostings and did a few in summer so I got a reseller account.
Too busy to do any at the moment though.

I like to use some of my space to test things and mess, also put some stuff up for university on there.

I do mainly PHP/MySQL. Learning more on XHTML and CSS lately.
Getting big into standards and accessibility.

Music likes:
Mainly Indie, it rocks

My dissertation - "Build an online tool in PHP and MySQL that assesses a website hosting's accessibility as a whole, with a supporting information base; Research: Accessibility tools, standards, laws and future directions."

It was a push for amount of characters allowed on the form

Hello everyone,

My name is Ivor, I am 51 and live in Plymouth.
I had a glazing business for 10 years and a computer business for 10 years.
Been married twice, 10 years and 20 years, and have some great kids.
I have a private hire taxi licience but never go to work, unless I want to meet any new nice ladies.

I actually make my living at the mo from gambling. I bet on dogs in the morning and gg's in the afternoon.
At the moment I have a 20 year old girlfriend and that really keeps me on my toes and keeps me young. I actually went cherry knocking the other night. LOL
I love blues and rock music and having lived in Manchester for a couple of years when young, I have seen a lot of the old great bands. Led Zep, Deep Purple, Elp, Yes, and many many more.
I have a couple of website hostings which I built with MS Publisher but I haven't a clue about any of the stuff that you guy's talk about. What the hell is MySQL Server etc. Hopefully I'll learn some of that from here.
I have a million more things to say and a million stories to tell but I'll leave that till we all meet up at the pub. LOL
Good luck.
Ivor
