More and more frequently I get asked by clients what they can do about the amount of spam they are receiving. To know the answer, we need to understand a little about what spam is, why we get it and things we can do to minimise or irradicate it.What is Spam?Spam is any email sent to you from someone you don't know or email that you didn't specifically request. If you signed up to a mailing list

I've spent some time recently looking at the gamut of online office applications, from the comprehensive and somewhat overwhelming (Zoho), through to the single purpose app that just does what it says on the tin.The latter category seems to be the hardest to pull off. Most online office tools seem to be focused on competing with Microsoft Office, which seems a little futile given the huge

We like free stuff. We also like free stuff that saves us time.Docstoc is a site where people share legal and business template documents, that you can then download, for free. Or upload if you like, if you happen to have legal documents kicking around you're happy to share.Sample contracts, constitutions, budget planners, funding applications. You name it, there's probably an example.Download

In our quest to keep up with the latest tools for the mobile worker, or as some might put it, pointless web nonsense, the team has been trying out Twitter, the latest killer app to confuse everyone with it's apparent utter pointlessness. At least, thats what the rest of the team seem to think. Personally I think there are loads of uses for Twitter, some of which aren't at all related to telling

It is a long trek (even for Circuit Riders) from the wilds of West Wales to the buzz that is Birmingham - but worth it to attend the Circuit Rider 2008 conference. A chance to meet up with like minded people, check out who is doing what, how and where, and make those connections between names on a mailing list and people full of ideas and innovation.There are pictures and reports available to
