Computer Terms Illustrated
Seems I've still got a few of these to write up. Honestly, dozens. Maybe I could do one of these a day for a month?

What Would the Bloggess Do?
I've Been Bloggessed. Have You?
Now where's my eye-patch? No, wait. Is that for pirates? Meh. Just click of the damned picture already. Arrr!
Venn That Tune
The perfect stocking filler. Or, you know, whenever. Birthday, Valentine's Day. Ok, maybe not Valentine's Day. Unless your beloved is a geek like you. Then it would be pretty cool, I guess.

Even with your illustrations...I'm still confused.
You have a picture of my boots - but DM?
Even after Googling I'm confused.
Kaz - I'm so glad you said that. There is always at least one of these that I've never heard of. On this occassion, it's two - I don't know what DM or MIME mean in computer terms. Please enlighten me Farty.
Booshy - Pooters are scary things. Just cross your fingers and hope for the best.
Kaz - Obviously you don't do Twitter.
Liz - And obviously you've never heard of email. Aren't you glad I'm here to illustrate it all for you?
I learn something new every day!
Any chance of illustrating how to put links into blog comments? My abilities don't extend any further than adding bold text.
I know no more about computers than before but I love the Gateway to Hell, particularly the way it looks as though it zips up!
Liz - It's much the same as <b>bold</b> text except that you use <a> instead of <b> and you use href="url" to indicate where the link points to.
Cut and paste this: <a href="http://liz-ordinary.blogspot.com/2009/10/and-wye-not.html">click here<a>
I leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out how I got the html source to display in this comment. Me so clever.
Taffeta - I kept getting Error 502, so I looked it up: bad gateway. First thing I thought of was "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here". Sounds just like Twitter on a bad day.
"Connected to host" is both disgustingly foul and wondrously fantastic.
I would have called that one "sucking face". Not a computer term (that I know of), but still...
Thank you Farty; I have learned two things from your blog this week.
Read 'Better Oot Than In' - it's more worthwhile than going to work!
Lesley - *takes a bow*
#Debi - You could probably call it an interface, of sorts.
Liz - Anything is more worthwhile than going to work.
