Frequently googled questions

An introduction to a new series of posts which I will be running relatively frequently answering some of the more obscure google search terms which cause people to land on slightlymore. The posts won’t appear in the normal blog section, they’ll just appear in the fgq section.

By Clinton Montague

Have you ever wanted to search for something but don’t know or can’t remember the right words to really narrow it down? Frustrated when you type ‘flash z-index’ into google but can’t find the answer anywhere because you didn’t know you were looking for ‘wmode’? Or desperately trying to find out if jQuery will work with Javascript turned off?

They all sound like stupid questions if you know what the answer is, but all questions do, don’t they? I have decided to start a series of quick posts answering some of the more obscure search terms that cause people to arrive at this site. Hopefully you might even find some of them useful.

The posts won’t get in the way of normal blog posts, they’ll be exclusively posted in the fgq section, but they’ll still appear in the feed so remember subscribe to that to keep up to date.

Take me to the new FGQ section!

Me on the intertubes

It wouldn't be right to have a web site, be a nerd, and not take this opportunity for a bit of shameless pluggery.

If you like all these weird and magic internet page things, you should try Coaster Nerd, Oxford Bloggers or, if you'd really like some unexplainable sourcery, is it the weekend yet.

Also you should follow me on Twitter ;)

Where to find me

I can be found fairly regularly at Oxford Geek Nights, OxTuttle and other general nerding out activities in and around Oxford.

I am also often found in my natural habitat which is anywhere that you can find an adreneline machine. I frequent English theme parks more often than is healthy, and take trips abroad to sample foreign rides.

Any good 3D films out at the moment? 1 week ago

Comedy disclaimer

These posts were written at the time of writing and may not still be accurate or reflect my opinions any more. In fact, they may not even be correct or representative at the time of writing. You see, when I write, I just write. I don't do that thing which they always told you to do at school and plan what you want to write first. Because of this, there will almost certainly be a load of typos, grammar errors and incorrect facts and references. If this makes you feel queasy, I apologise that you had to get to the bottom of the page to read this, and hope that some day, you'll learn to forgive me.

What's this site?

Slightlymore started off all too formally for my liking. In the depths of the archives, you'll find tutorials. However if you read the more recent posts, you'll find them a lot more playful and about fun and interesting stuff.

Annoyingly difficult to use tag cloud
