    What new Technology are you implementing this year?

    Our office machines now running Windows 8 which to be honest is a mare. Were also running Visual Studio 2012 which I do like. It is rather nifty. I now use a multitude of new tools (Phonegap and FlashBuilder) for cross platform mobile devices (I could write a blog on ups and downs of...

    Need agreement for giving shares in our company.

    Hi there, Okay so no replies so I will rephrase the question. Can anyone reccomend where I can get the cheapest / best value advice so that I can get these contracts drawn up? I am a little inexperienced when it comes to shopping around the legal field. Cheers, Lindsay.

    Need agreement for giving shares in our company.

    Hi there, I am a little stuck on what to do because we have a 5 year old Ltd company split between the 2 founders (50 shares each originally valued at £1 per share). We have a person on board that we want to make more of a permanent fixture, and because of tax and salary reasons it would work...

    OK one for the graphic boys n girls

    Also remember the device it is being viewed on. PC with 1024x768 and Apple with far higher resolution might still be okay with the same images, but you want your style sheet to cascade and select almost thumbnail versions of images if the site is viewed on an iphone or similar device to save on...

    Handing out your CV in Australia

    I personally wouldn't take up your luggage weight with 100 printed CVs. If you do need them on hard copy then I would print them over there. Anyways for the advice. I contracted as an IT expert in Melbourne back in 2000. I can tell you the best bet imo is to contact Hayes IT. I am not sure if...

    It has not been possible to connect your call, please try again later...

    You should be fine if its a credit card because to all intents and purposes you havent paid the credit card company yet so it is their money that is lost and not yours. When this happened to me BarclayCard refunded the money and sent me the form to fill out a statement of what happened and I...

    Best Way To

    I just thought I should also mention. Get a purely business contact number on the website before you start getting it too well known. Once your website comes top when someone searches for clothes near me then you will also start getting inundated with marketing calls so it is worth getting a...

    Best Way To

    Hiya, once you are listed with Google Maps, Yell.Com, Kellys Services, Thompson Local and any other free location biased directories, then start looking at local business directories and just keep on submitting (to the free ones). Hopefully the following wont confuse: Dont do submissions to...

    Microsoft Word - where do I go to create questionnaire

    If you are lookign at under 20 quesitons and under 50 responses per day then I would use this one: http://www.freeonlinesurveys.com/ If you exceed those limits it will still continue to work but to get the results analysis you would need to subscribe (£20) I think there are others if you...

    Outlook 2003 to Outlook 2007 problems?

    did you export your account settings? Or did you have to manually set them up again? I have about 30 email accounts through different businesses that I need to move. (sales@, webmaster@, contact@, and info@ for websites I set up) I believe that outlook (even 2010) still doesnt do an account...

    Business Ideas

    I dont want a penny heheh, I dont even want to be a part of this business, and I hardly ever give away ideas for free. But I do believe in serendipity (thank gawd for spell checkers because I cant even spell it) Aaanyways. Your mention of a coffee shop means I will give you this idea, let...

    Develop for Android or iPhone - Which is better - FIIIIIGHT

    Excellent! I love the 2 last posts :) First CS5, I didnt know that. I just read up a little more and it will support full multitouch and accelerometer, so no need for GlovePIE then. If there are 400 apps a day coming onto it now then when CS5 is out and every flash developer in the land is...

    Develop for Android or iPhone - Which is better - FIIIIIGHT

    Of course a very good idea for an app now (which may already be in the pipeline) would be to write something like GlovePIE for the iPhone, so that if and when they do start playing flash movies on there you have an app that can translate the accelerometers and multi touch inputs over to flash...

    Develop for Android or iPhone - Which is better - FIIIIIGHT

    Interestingly enough I was having a good chat with another iPhone expert yesterday about the lack of flash on the phone and some of the stumbling blocks you get with that, and then I saw this and thought. Oooh Silverlight, on an iPhone - well that is going to put Adobe's nose out of joint. But...
