    The Credit Crunch: US vs. UK responses

    The Republicans did one major thing of course-the tax credit of $300 per person and $1200 for a married couple. That I'm sure won them a lot of points where as all Brown did was refuse a fuel credit.

    What is the definition of 'made in the UK'?

    I was unaware of this, and it's just pretty much blown my confidence in anything but made at home (or small workshop) type operations.

    Charity says no to money

    Guess work it may be but it makes sense. Image is a lot to charities, and if they don't know a company well then they may be a little cautious.

    new loyalty program - pls. comment

    I have never found the reward part of my client program to be a problem though-it's not something that I would be looking for an alternative to. It works, and it's simple.

    Your most creative time of day?

    My most creative time is always as I am dropping off to sleep. For that reason I keep a notepad and pen under my pillow at all times so that I don't miss out.

    Shipping Overseas

    Unfortunately I have found this to be hugely expensive, and have yet to find a workable solution. I have a lot of work between here and the US, and I just have to deal with the costs.

    Boy tries to headbutt bus...

    Dude looks like he almost lost his foot. Justice was metered swiftly and painfully and I hope that he learned a lesson from it :D

    new loyalty program - pls. comment

    I have to agree with the previous poster-any loyalty schemes that I arrange I would want to do so in order to stimulate further purchases from me-not sending the client elsewhere. Maybe you'd find people interested, but I look out for my interests when it comes to my business, not other people's ;)

    Do You Send Orders By Registered Post?

    I leave it down to customer choice, and have the customer acknowledge the risks of choosing normal post if that is what they choose.

    Shocker: Google Crome Owns the Copyright to Everything You Post.

    These are search engine kings, suddenly going off and doing something completely new to them. It's no surprise that it has security problems because they have stepped out of their comfort zone.

    shhhhhhh! Google chrome secrets!

    I don't think so. It looks poor-almost animated. I haven't checked whether it really is, but it looks like a java ap, and I don't like java aps generally. Certainly it seems to offer nothing new, compared to Firefox, so I see no point in switching from the tried and tested.

    PC not display web pages properly regardless of browser

    If you are comfortable working with it you could try using Hijack This to find out if there are spyware programs, or browser hijacks that you have yet to find.

    Customer Problems

    For future use you might also consider putting a clause on your receipt or contract that work is as is, and that liability is limited to the cost of the work done. That way you won't be out more than they paid you.

    Paypal - What would you do??

    Yes you can link more than one bank account per paypal account, you just can't do the reverse. They won't let you link one bank account to more than one paypal account.

    Paypal - What would you do??

    This is indeed the simplest way of generating a more unique statement for clients without risking breaching paypal terms. It works easy enough too.
