For the next few months, I will be updated this blog on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays with additional posts in-between from time to time.

If you are an email subscriber, you do not need to do anything. Your email notification will come out to you once a week as before on Thursdays.

For other visitors, do check back every week to see what’s new on the site!

As an experiment in the blogging multimedia experience, I am showing short films on Mondays through June and July, starting on UK Bank Holiday Monday 29 May. They will be uploaded around 8.30 am GMT +1.

I’ve chosen the films because they make me laugh and that’s as a good a way as any to brighten up Mondays!

System Requirements

The films are streamed from YouTube.com and require a Flash Player. You need the latest version of Macromedia Flash installed - if you don’t have this, you can download it from Adobe.

If the film keeps stopping or stuttering, that’s to do with your connection. You will need broadband of at least 500+Kbps.

You will need the sound enabled on your PC and your speakers turned on, with the volume controls set above 0.

In general, you need to make sure you have the following:

• Macromedia Flash Player 7.0+ plug-in
• Windows 2000 or higher with latest updates installed
• Mac OS X 10.3 or higher
• Firefox 1.1+, IE 5.0+, or Safari 1.0+
• Broadband connection with 500+ Kbps

If you are using Firefox, there can sometimes be a problem hearing the sound so you may need to switch to Internet Explorer.

The films are shown by embedding them from YouTube.com - the above information is reproduced from that site’s Troubleshooting section. I have no other technical knowlege, I’m afraid. If you continue to have problems, please go to www.youtube.com and click on their "Help" section.

Fusion View Film Archive

You can watch films in the Fusion View Film Archive by going to the Category called "Film/ TV/ Live Performance" in the sidebar on the right of the page.

I’ve been experiencing some server / email problems so apologies to anyone who has tried to email me. Can I suggest that you re-send and also cc. yangmayooi@yahoo.co.uk?

Thanks

Yang-May Ooi’s Lit Blog has now been officially christened Fusion View and has its own domain at www.fusionview.co.uk.

Following overwhelmingly positive responses in the two weeks since I launched the blog, I decided to upgrade ahead of schedule, with additional user-friendly features.

You will find:

• Topics are now sorted in "Categories" where the link will take you straight to the posts in that category.
• You can subscribe anonymously now if you prefer (but I won’t be able to include you in the prize draws)
• There is a Useful Links section - currently, you can search Amazon.co.uk direct from my site.
• I am aware that the facility to Search the site still needs some tweaking and I’m working on it. Hopefully, it should be fully functional very soon.
• The site looks cleaner visually I think.

As a subscriber, you don’t have to do anything - you will be notified automatically from this new site.

If you have bookmarked the old site in your Favourites, you will need to change the bookmark to refer to this new site at www.fusionview.co.uk.
