• Reset: Normal Service is Resumed

  Posted: September 30, 2009, 5:42 pm by Inari

  Greetings from my shiny new computer, which finally arrived this week to restore all the tech goodness I had grown accustomed to. After a day to restore all my old files and settings, I’m back up and running, so the blog is now officially back to normal, as are the Twitter feeds. One good thing to [...]

• If you’re trying to break into a ...

  Posted: September 23, 2009, 6:33 pm by Stephanie Migot

  If you’re trying to break into a new industry or have just been made redundant, why not consider giving up your time for free? No, I’m not talking about an internship, though that’s also a valid way of getting ahead. I’m thinking more along the lines of helping out a charity or voluntary organisation. Not [...]

• Why You Can’t Just Demand to Be Placed on Somebody’s Blogroll

  Posted: September 22, 2009, 6:31 pm by Stephanie Migot

  Every so often, the form on the contact page will generate an email that goes along the lines of this: “Hi! I read your blog and enjoyed it. I have a blog too. Add me to your blogroll!” Not even a please. Now I knw that being on somebody’s list of recommended websites is a [...]

• Pricing for Profit

  Posted: September 21, 2009, 3:16 pm by Stephanie Migot

  How do you know how much to charge your customers for goods or services? In some cases, where manufacturers give recommended retail prices, or where your competitors are selling similar products, it’s easy enough to figure out what you can get away with. If you offer a specialised product or provide a unique service, however, [...]

• Freeware of the Week! [EditPad Lite]

  Posted: September 18, 2009, 2:30 pm by Stephanie Migot

  While I was wandering around with a face like a kicked puppy in the wake of my computer-related horror, I busied myself trying to get my notes into some kind of rational order. I carry a couple of notepads with me wherever I go, filling them up with things I need to remember or that [...]

• Whoops! It happened again.

  Posted: September 11, 2009, 7:04 pm by Inari

  I seem to be developing a nasty habit of having bits of computer equipment explode. At least time I know it wasn’t my fault. Sadly, because it wasn’t my fault, there needs to be a full rebuild rather than just a new part, which is why the blog has been so quiet, the Twitter birds [...]

• Twitter or RSS: Which is Best for News?

  Posted: September 3, 2009, 1:30 pm by Stephanie Migot

  If you follow this blog on Twitter, you’ll know that I read quite a few websites. I read them to keep informed, expand my knowledge and for inspiration for posts here. I also tweet headlines that I think other people might find useful on a regular basis. Recently, when I’ve sent a headline and link [...]

• How to Decide on a Commercial Lease for Premises

  Posted: September 2, 2009, 3:43 pm by Stephanie Migot

  Whether you need a shop front or an office, a commercial lease on premises is one of the biggest commitments that you can make when starting a business. Unlike residential letting,  there is more money at stake, over a longer timeframe, so take steps to make sure you don’t get burdened with a property that [...]

• What Will the Kenyan Web Look Like?

  Posted: September 1, 2009, 4:48 pm by Inari

  As the undersea cables are connected and we prepare for Kenya’s technological great leap forward, one thing that has been troubling me is the certainty expressed by some that increased bandwidth is going to transform the country. This seems premature, especially when the other problems the country faces are taken into account. No doubt certain industry [...]
