Love of card sales. And actually, sales of almost anything else you can imagine!
Try booking a table for two in a popular restaurant, especially if Valentine’s Day falls on a Friday, a Saturday or, like this year, a Sunday. You can find special Valentine screenings of Love Story or [...]

I wonder how many times my long suffering wife has heard me say “Why can’t they just read?”  I am convinced that information overload is the biggest obstacle to communications.

I am writing this blog post to give me time clarify my thoughts as to how to respond to my latest on-line dilemma. Computers were designed to make our life easier and as for the Internet well the ultimate communication tool surely. Well yes that would probably be true if a whole new layer of complexity hadn’t entered our lives. Why do I lurch endlessly from one on-line frustration to another.

I am positive you will identify with the two problems I am currently grappling with and have stories of your own to relate.

Dragon’s Den entrepreneur Peter Jones appears on BBC Breakfast with an upbeat message about the economy. A breath of positive fresh air among all the gloom mongers who are talking the market into a worse state. Oh for more smart people like this around…

OK I did say I was going to not let the stupidity of Googles PageRank system get to me any more but how can I ignore a client ringing up and demanding to know what is going on.  Dear client I wish I could tell you.

There is a lot that I like about Google – analytics to name but one – but equally they frustrate the hell out of me at times.

I’m on a rant today.  An injustice is being done by the Performance Rights Society – do they really want a world devoid of music?  They are going the right way about it.
What am I on about.

An argument is raging through the blogs and Twitter at the moment about Internet Marketers and John Reese in particular using Social Media for their activities.
