Not having a go at our poor hard working politicians are you Linda?
PostsNot having a go at our poor hard working politicians are you Linda? Still need convincing about mobile traffic? Look at this! 17th March 2014 5:16 PM “Hi Steve, As a web designer myself I have been creating responsive websites for a while now. I do not charge any extra for this.” I kind of suspected/hoped that would be the case. Like you say, if you are using something like wp as the platform, then there's no excuse. Just find it baffling the sheer amount of non friendly sites I see passing through on a daily basis! Unhappy with the way things are going? Then phone the Prime Minister/President! 14th March 2014 12:33 PM Well at least if your name is Mark Zuckerberg who phoned Barack Obama to tell him how unhappy he was with US Digital surveillance. “When our engineers work tirelessly to improve security, we imagine we're protecting you against criminals, not our own government" BBC News - Mark Zuckerberg 'confused and frustrated' by US spying” Anyone know the number for Mr Cameron? Got a few concerns I'd like to discuss.. Community Inspiration for 2014? 14th March 2014 10:01 AM Hi Aaron The point of the thread is your objectives, not anyone elses. So what are your objectives or goals for 2014? Then we can touch base in 12 months and see how you've done  Friday Humour 14th March 2014 9:39 AM Pinterest for business, a new look and analytics! 12th March 2014 2:56 PM Hi Stew Interesting one, can safely say I haven't logged into Pinterest since this last post, so I've done nothing with it for 12 months. Just checked our analytics, and not exactly earth shattering, but in the last 12 months, we have had a grand total of 45 unique visitors, although these did lead to 8 business sign ups. So not much incentive to spend any more time on it when compared to say Facebook which generated 255 signups in the last 30 days. Anyone else had any luck with Pinterest? Community Inspiration for 2014? 12th March 2014 2:31 PM “You need to take your internal customers (employees) into confidence, need to make them happy, need to make them more excited and need to provide them facilities they want. If you can do these things then no one can stop you in succeeding because they are internal customers if they are happy then they can make external customers happy.” So is that your plan? (which was the point of the thread). You are going to start making your employees happy? Just checking my progress so far: Grow Twitter from 1280 followers to 3000 - currently 1676 on targetGrow FB page from 420 likes to 2000 - currently 1346 well on targetGrow G+ page from 84 followers to 500 - currently 127 must try harderIncrease Forum Interaction and grow membership.

Chrome overtakes IE globally 10th March 2014 11:12 AM “For me it is always IE that creates problems in the design process, meaning you have to go in and correct the css code just to make things work ok for that one damn browser. I personally would like to see that back of it altogether.” Whenever we have a reported bug on the site, it's normally some combination of an older windows and IE version to blame. Unfortunately regardless how better IE has got over the years, we still get plenty of users using really old IE versions. IE6 is the bain of our life, and the sooner that is consigned to history the better! Unfortunately I don't think that will happen anytime soon! In the last 30 days we have had 940 visitors using IE6, 3,670 using IE7 and 22,975 using IE8. But my favourite, 1 visitor using IE5 !!!!!! Come on everyone, time to upgrade and make our lives easier Friday Humour - non PC... don't shout... 7th March 2014 4:43 PM  No credit, image taken from twitter |
