Hmm, the theory is great, I'm a fitness expert and can preach to anyone about exercise and balanced diets. Losing weight is easy, burn more energy than you take in... Put the pie down and back away... But practising my own advice is a different kettle of fish!

Little nippers keep you fairly fit and the mission is now back on to dump some weight and stay awake in the afternoon.

Now where do I get some bigger doors?

Just saw a good article about guest posting as well:

Death of the Guest Post - site-reference.com

Some interesting points, as this basically defends the guest post, but it seems a lot of effort and vetting!

Or I'm sat on a bus and someone is playing music out of their iphone? Does the bus company need a license?

In the grand scheme of required legislation, I'd file it under non compliant Bananas or illegally shaped turnips...

I think the policy is short sighted and barmy.

Agreed the planning laws can be tedious at times (having been through the pain in recent years) but do I want my neighbours putting up some obscene size extension, just because they can?

No idea which think tank this idea came out of, but I think they need to make future sessions teetotal

dohhhh!!! missed it

Looking forward to the new Star Trek film, thought the last one with the young James Kirk was great

Clever marketing ploy

would imagine FB is a good lead generator for a gym.

I tend to use "kind regards" with a formal signature the first time I talk to someone, then it's "cheers Steve" then onwards. But if I have my angry hat on and have to shout at someone, then it's just "regards", or just formal sig depending how grumpy I am.

As for Barneys original question, would be interested to know why we all seem to go down the regards route? It sounds more American than UK, so guess its grown up with email and we've all followed like lemmings?

Saw Michael McIntyre last night at Birminghams NIA, and he came up with a funny observation. When we were kids, it was always "are we there yet" as we sat bored in the back of the car. He said his kids now say "have we reached our destination yet?"

lol just seen this

love it, thats my kind of tool, something that's quick and visual and can give you a quick snapshot of Google activity.

If its stormy, then time to start doing some digging and find out what's going on!

Ok Jack, will confess to being confused now


So deal with online support and help people retain customers, but your customers are unsatisfied with your services? Hmmm sounds like you have a major problem if your business is online support, obviously somethings not working! What are your customers biggest complaint?

Nothing's really changed that much, or at least from the sites I look after. There's a lot more churn these days, after each monthly google update, the keywords seem to get juggled around a bit, then settle back down again.

The key thing is patience and doing things properly. Shortcuts and gaming will get you hammered.

I updated this SEO education post to reflect some post panda and penguin stuff, but no doubt any SEO gurus will add their tuppence worth.
