Good films though Favourite Movies? 30th March 2012 12:22 AM “Kind of movie you probably need to see a couple of times to piece it all together.” Favourite quote, when Colin decides to conquer America with his English Accent: "Your on the road to disaster" "No, I'm on shag highway heading west" Makes me chuckle every time Colin Frissell - YouTube Becoming a Non Smoker 30th March 2012 12:08 AM “I also stopped about 45 minutes ago. Thank you for showing me that it can be done...” Wahey, seriously? You going for it This is going to turn into a reformed smokers forum at this rate lol. Come to MLF and get cured Next week it's chocolate what is a web 2.0 web site ? 29th March 2012 5:11 PM Thanks for the steer! Only just realised a little Yoda had infiltrated us! Terminated... Petrol Stations running out of fuel as Government screws up! 29th March 2012 3:01 PM The UK Government, sometimes they really are a bunch of idiots! "The government made a mistake in advising people to store petrol in jerrycans at home to prepare for a possible strike by fuel tanker drivers, a transport minister has said...." BBC News - Fuel strike threat: Maude's jerrycan advice 'a mistake' So the actual fuel strike hasn't started yet, but already panic buying brought on by ridiculous government statements has already caused chaos  After fuel queues this morning, it looks like the garages in Stratford are now dry... Anyone one else seeing any shortages? Quite a subdued rant really about Microsoft ... 29th March 2012 1:20 PM Wouldn't it be great if they just updated XP, but left it looking the same. When I got a new car, the pedals were in the same place as the old one, electric windows were where I expect to find them, the doors opened the same way, and I worked out how to use any new bits and bobs within a day of driving it. I'm hanging onto Vista and Office 2007 for as long as possible, as everytime I look at Clives Win 7 laptop, I can't find anything Favourite Movies? 29th March 2012 12:14 PM Kelly's Heroes - timeless classic ("woof woof that's my other dog impression") Blood Diamond - thought Leo Cappuccino was great in this Love Actually - Brit Rom com at its best, good friday night bottle of wine with the wife film Battlestar Galactica - The new version, all volumes apart from the final season which ruined it, and was quite frankly ridiculous Wild Geese - another classic, Richard Burton, Richard Harris, Roger Moore Can watch any of them again and again Why you're not making money on Social Media 28th March 2012 11:28 PM “Re-purposing content on various sites allows for a wider reach that encourages discussion on different platforms, I can guarantee that I won't be the only that is using the strategy!” Definitely not, and I'll freely confess to being guilty to using lazy techniques like automated twitter feeds  but then you take a step back, and stop following the pack. Spending a bit of extra time making unique content will encourage more discussion and gain far more respect, especially as most of us regularly frequent multiple forums.There's multitudes of SEO peeps that pass through here, most all following the same old style, low quality post counting, link dumping, some stick around, but there's 2 in particular on here who buck the trend and generate some very interesting posts and contributions, and have let themselves become seen as natural experts on their chosen topic. That to me is the beauty and potential of Social Media, and it can generate genuine leads, but I think only a personal touch can achieve it for it to seem believable, unless your ghost writer/social media manager is very good. “With regards to outsourcing, I find that many business owners just don't have enough hours in the day to follow a defined strategy (if they even have one) and update their profiles.” Very good point, and I can see why a lot of people will outsource, I only hope the outsourced SMM industry doesn't end up with the same reputation as the SEO industry, or even worse, it's the same people Hope you stick around and become our resident SMM expert What is the best way to get website promotion? 28th March 2012 4:58 PM Not sure if this is genuine or just a post count, but start with basic SEO and then some SMM?
