The Queen’s new website was released today – even Sir Tim Berners-Lee helped her out at the official launch.

I think she could maybe do with a new calendar too… Their current one (see screenshot on left in case they fix it) seems to be a day out. It’s Friday the 13th Feb tomorrow – there’s no Saturday the 13th Feb, well, at least not this year…

My guess is that there’s a developer somewhere that doesn’t realise that the day of the week returned by the function that retrieves the royal appointments is for weeks that start on a Sunday and not a Monday…

(PS – Oooh, Friday the 13th – do the Hogs Back Brewery still do their special brew on such dates?)
