Welcome News from the Real World News from the Virtual World
Hi. Welcome to Mark.net. This site is about everything and nothing. Confused? You should be.

Everything here interests me, so I hope you find something that interests you. If you fail to find anything of interest, rest assured in the knowledge that you got what you paid for. Happy surfing!

Technology The Best of the Web
Mobile Phones
The Nokia 7650, scheduled for release mid 2002, combines the technology of a mobile phone a PDA and a digital camera. Couple this with the 3G network and you have a powerful tool that no secret agent should be without. For the rest of us, its something to show off to our mates.  [more]

 Windows XP(ensive) is here
But then weren't they all? Ignoring the cost implications of this powerful new operating system for a moment (as so many hackers already have), the latest offering from Microsoft boasts a whole new look on Windows 2000 NT technology. Could it be FASTER and MORE RELIABLE? Apparently so. [more]

Morpheus
Is a file sharing community similar in design to Napster. However this community is still very much operational, completely free and much much [more]

Google
www.google.com is the latest meta search engine to appear on the web. One of its arguably better qualities over other search engines is not what it offers but what it doesn't. [more]
Personal Entertainment
Mark
This is my personal corner of the site and I'll put in it whatever I want. For those of you who don't know me personally: Reading stuff about people you don't know is weird. Seek medical advice

Skating
You though i was going to have a personal website without dedicating a section to skating? You don't know me at all. Why are you still reading? I told you to seek medical advice! 

Now in my humble opinion if God had intended man to fly he would have given us wings. Until that day I say strap a pair of skates to your feet and go nuts. [more]
Television
Everyone knows someone who (says) they don't own (or watch) TV. If you happen to be one of those people reading this right now I have something to tell you: Everyone knows your lying. Here's the best the web has to offer from the likes of South Park, Friends, Star Trek and many more (sounds, pictures, info) [more].

Movies
Have you seen Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring yet? I thought it sucked. Thats right, you heard me. I didnt read the books and im so very very thankful. I found the plot laborious, the characters weak and unapealling and the ending made me want to beat J.R. Tolkein around the head with a large stick. [more]

The sort of stuff you usually only get in chain emails
I often here people whining about the crap they get in their email. But I love it! Nothing quite gets me through the day like the occasional and unexpected email from a caring friend or co-worker containing a witty joke or dodgy picture. If like me you love this stuff I'm putting the best I have in this section. If you have something funny and you think it should be here, EMAIL IT TO ME! wraggym@hotmail.com [more]


Please note that M@rk.net is a completely NON-SMOKING website.
And I would appreciate it if you didn't trash the place.

Thanks!
