Think Visibility – The Adventure

Think Visibility – The Adventure

Think Visibility focuses on the items that usually get left out of the web process.  That’s the official strapline of the Think Visibility conference, but it’s more than that in my eyes, much much more – it’s an adventure. The word Adventure can have several definitions : an exciting or very unusual experience. participation in [...]

Photoshop Action Scripts

Photoshop Action Scripts

Well, I bought a bucket load of them today.  I got a free action script a month or two back that created an ebook image for an ebook I wrote on the Betcritique site for “Staking Plans”.  I then searched the web for more scripts, highly impressed with the simplicity of the script.  There are [...]

Happy New Year

Happy New Year

A Happy New Year to you all.  I hope last nights festivities haven’t left you feeling too fragile.  We had a rather low key New Years Eve, with a trip to the local cinema to watch Avatar in 3D followed by a glass of port at home to bring in the New Year.  Great film [...]

My Blogging Influences

My Blogging Influences

I was reading an article the other day about, what had happened in the last decade.  It contained the usual stuff about music, technology, politics, etc and I got thinking about my own life and what things stood out over the last 10 years.  The birth of my son was obviously top of my list, [...]

Ramblings 15-10-09

Been a few days since I last posted and I’ve been pretty busy. Work during the day and working on my own stuff at night. Two of the existing sites I’m co-running have had bits of work done to them and a couple of posts on the Betcritique site – football and horse racing. All [...]

Open For Business

Open

Well, I’ve been putting it off for a long time now – well not so much putting it off, but just busy with other stuff.  Two new websites re-done, another one in progress and 14 more to follow that.  It’s a busy time to say the least. So what’s it all about? Well, this is [...]
