A couple of great traffic exchanges recently ordered promo videos and RealHitz4u maybe joining them soon.  None of them are Ventrino traffic exchanges but we can’t hold that against them, variety is what makes this industry so much fun!

An open letter from Jake to Albert. Dear Albert, I decided not to respond to your sarcasm and threats for these reasons: It is not one of ours.  Check the top of the invoice, it has a different company name Calling me a cupid stunt does not incentivise me (Edited for family readers) I am [...]

Not everyone in the banking industry is corrupt, a cheat and liar, but many are.  The industry as a whole has a frightful attitude towards its customers (and indeed many of its employees) and in the UK they have far more power than the average company.  Cutting through red tape and not telling the truth [...]

I have never been enthusiastic about Apple.  I’m not sure if its an irrational dislike of them or some professional jealousy, probably a mixture of both.  As a programmer since the late 70′s I watched in frustration as hardware and software companies took proprietary routes which held back progress for us all.

I have been fortunate enough to follow Sungha Jung’s progress for a couple of years.  I guess he can only improve with age yet for someone so young he has a superb head start.  Already an Internet star I hope we get to see him live in concert soon, just as soon as he finishes school!

A friend doesn’t “get twitter”.  He thinks it’s a place for teenagers to pass the time swapping pictures, which it might be, but there is a lot more potential. http://twitter.com/towerbridge is a good example.  An engineer has programmed the bridge to tweet it’s opening 5 minutes before and again once it has been closed again.
