Take your phone system to the next level
I had a great discussion with a friend a day or two ago, the conversation was about the marketing plan set out by businesses and how they forget about the telephone. Not telemarketing, but the marketing of the business on the phone, while the customer is on hold. While the “your call is important to [...]
Was the Future that long ago
The day I heard an interview with Michael J Fox about his latest movie in which he’d be “getting it on” with his mother. Then another with Robert Zemekis said (paraphrasing) “It was like someone backed a truck up to my office and dropped off all the greatest ideas for a move all in one [...]
iphone 4 still on its way
I am encouraged, but a little cautious, about the arrival of the new iPhone 4. And it is on its way. My email from Optus said so. They’ll keep me up to date with the progress. With the antenna problems I wonder if there might be a small hardware change in the short to medium [...]

I wonder how much of that is actually the settings, default setting in Facebook. Many many many years ago, we interviewed Chris Pirillo for [...]
Love the Newspaper Comments
Just read this from James Allen http://www.jamesallenonf1.com/2010/05/reaction-to-alonsos-howler-in-monaco/ I have to laugh at the press in Europe taking to task drivers in Formula 1, but other sports too.

TV show repeats, in the same show!!
I have just dragged myself though the 7 Network Australia’s The Force. A show about local police force finding offenders, to several crimes, in a 30 min TV show. I have no doubt that there are the same style shows the world over. I have noticed that each story, 3 of them in this show [...]
UK Internet Law Passed | RIP freedom of speech?
I first heard that the UK Parliament was having one of the most hideous piece of legislation.

Great tips for productivity
I am a loyal listener to the PodCasts of Leo Laporte at live.twit.tv starting with Macbreak Weekly and adding from there. The show that continues to impress, and probably why they decided to cover Google & Cloud Computing is TWiG, This Week in Google. Jeff Jarvis & Gina Trapani look at Google. The reason i [...]
Recording a Voiceover with a non professional
I was asked what to give advice on recording a voice track with someone, like a client, who has never ‘read in front of a mic ‘ before. So thought I’d share it here too Sound levels – When recording anything, absolutely anything, NEVER let the levels go to Red. That is distortion, it cannot [...]

Feedback, reliable & honest from the coal face
