Tech people...

[YetMoreTech]

I am quite sure you all want to join me in saying hello to the latest addition to the team: TomTech.

BigTech has moved on but his shoes are being expertly filled by Tom (not literally of course - BigTech's shoes were befittingly huuuuuge).

Be nice and remember that not everyone in the world knows what "i cant get classic in aibu since i searched for dragonbutter " means quite yet.

Whilst we're about it, NikitaTech is going on maternity leave in a couple of weeks, but she'll be back later in the year.

Meanwhile it's business as usual...

Hang on ... OriginalTech left for the big shed in America, BigTech has flounced joined a smaller forum, nikitatech is making babies, TomTech is new tech who we must be nice to and you YetMoreTech who has converted his tech shed into a pub?

Soooooo, where has BigTech gone then?? Does he prefer to work for smaller start-ups, is that it? Or has ShowofHands just pushed him Too Far with her requests for a Friday Night topic?

Welcome Tomtech, and good luck to NikitaTech with the baby

Oooh, congratulations Nikita!

Welcome TomTech

Hello TomTech! (What is he like? Is he over 14?)

Nikitatech how can she be pregnant? She was surely only 12 herself?

Big Tech

KentuckyFriedPenguin, yeah, so what's your problem?

this does not help my shuddering and stuttering brian you know.....it is worn out enough just trying to keep up with helen/gereldine/oliviamumsnet et al.

there is no sympathy for the oddities among us

MP, how is mini MP?? is she recovering nicely??

MiniMP is sort of rotting to death but seems quite cheery

I, on the other hand, am KNACKERED

and also a bit bored of children now

No problem - just checking i was up to date and wondering if MNHQ keep poisoning your biscuits because you all keep disappearing!

Welcome TomTech!

(Have you received the standard issue techtoolbelt yet? And did yours come with extra cake and merlot and the rope just long enough to hang yourself.....? [snigger])

I think someone has killed BigTech. We need a live webchat episode a la Eastenders with the prime suspects all leading to a dramatic confession.......

My money's on YMT and probably involves loan sharks.

Welcome tomtech.

I have a quick question for you.

why are some threads underlined in orange instead of blue, and why do some have no underlines at all.

Hello & welcome TomTech

Another Q for you: why have my "Threads I'm Watching" all disappeared???

And mine don't change colour after I've read them even though they do initially when I click on 'em.

Revert back to hiding amongst all my unread threads once I go back onto Active Convos.

Most annoying

Pesto, if you're using Firefox, you can use the Stylish add-on to do that and make it more pleasing colours.

My custom one is:
@-moz-document domain('www.mumsnet.com'){
#Talk2 a {color:#369 !important; text-decoration:none !important;}
#Talk2 a:visited {color:#870099 !important;}
#Talk2 a:hover {text-decoration:underline !important;}
}

You need to choose Mumsnet Sober Workplace from the customise link or change the #Talk2 bit to #Talk0 for Muted, #Talk1 for Classic or #Talk3 for New.

Thanks JJ, I don't think I am though sadly. Will try & collar my computer man when he comes on Friday

TomTech (or AnyoneAtAllTech) - any news about my lost Threads I'm Watching???

But no-one has fixed that rogue space yet. I reckon that's where all the stuff is coming through. It's why BigTech has moved on. I know he is a broken man since the voices started coming through the space at him.

And undoubtedly it is why NikitaTech is up the duff.

So welcome TomTech. Just watch yourself.
