jadesfireI just tried to use my mobile phone as a mouse for my computer.
Disappointingly, nothing happened apart from it beeping at me.
Welcome to Monday.
ETA: People who write 'idiot's guides' to geeky stuff (linux, CSS etc). You are not dim enough to do this. Seriously. You think you're speaking English, but you're still speaking Geek. You have to realise that when you try to make something better for idiots, all the world does is build a better idiot. At the moment, that idiot is me.
(Before anyone jumps in to help me, I'm in the process of sorting it out, thanks. I'm just increasingly frustrated by people not explaining the very basic principles ("this is what CSS does" "this is what you are doing when you type into a Terminal box") before launching into their how-to guides. Grrrr!)
