Over the past few weeks, I’ve setup a couple of new blogs. What’s that? I hardly update this one or http://matthewbrown.net.au as it is? I know, I know, I have lots of things to put on them and no time to do it! The two new blogs are both for very good reasons though! Show [...]

Maybe it’s just me, but when you are paying hundreds to thousands a year on a website, you expect it to work, and to get a response about problems quickly. I have come across a few web companies that only work like this if it is the easiest thing for them to do. Most recently, [...]
