I do intend to write a blog about all the software tools I use to make my job a little easier, but for now I want to talk about a little utility I use daily called Dropbox. Dropbox is probably the best file synchronisation and ‘cloud’ manager there is. I can work on any file…

Why is it professionals still don’t backup/archive regularly?

It is shocking how many people still do not have a computer backup system in place. Fair enough, when it comes to complaincency I’m terrible at business administration (my filing is way behind), but in my mind backing up critical files is something that cannot be delayed.

Just a quick post to tell you about a game I’ve installed on my iPad for ages but only recently rediscovered. Pocket Legends can best described as World of Warcraft for Apple devices. The control system is very simple, it’s just point to a space in the environment and your character will move. Combat is…

Let the battle between Amazon Kindle and Apple’s iPad commence. Good advert, but I think the woman comes across as a bit snooty.
