This week in steam
Sometimes I see or hear a steam train passing on the mainline near where I work. Then I found out how you can know in advance when they are coming. I've written a webscraper that checks the times each night and builds a This Week In Steam page. Now you can run down to the track and wave as it goes by.

Caverns
A year or so ago I spent some time making a copy of an old board-game. Although it's not really a public project, it stole enough Beholder resources that I thought it ought to be documented, so now there's a Caverns page on the site.

Planetarium RSS Feed
There's now a personalised RSS feed on Planetarium, which is a better
way of making sure you
don't miss any instalments
once you've logged in. Planetarium
will still send out email reminders to readers who are about to miss an instalment, but these days probably
a lot of those emails get shot down as spam. So instead look out for the
icon on the welcome page when you log in.

Planetarium updated
We've finally tidied up the ragged old 1990's HTML on Planetarium so it's easier to read.

Planetarium xiii Forums restored
If you reached the 13th week of Planetarium any time between late 2001
and early 2006, you may have been disappointed that the
xiii Forum was missing. Finally, we've
resinstated it.
So if you ever made it all the way to part xiii and would like to see what you missed
(mainly comments from other readers, and some discussion about the puzzles), if you contact us
with your reader-name and the dates (roughly) when you finished, we can arrange to get you onto
the forum (yes, for just one week).
