Basic business practices
I guess it is just another hat that you have to wear being a web designer, but you really can’t afford to ignore basic business principles. No matter what website you are launching or involved in, from the smallest blog to the biggest community mammoth. The basic business principles all apply. I would always suggest as a starting point to treat any website like a business in itself.
Good bye old friend
As of last night the insurance company has signed my sony vaio’s death warrent. Yep the vaio has left the building and I am now wearing black and getting goth flash backs. The result of the now insurance company offical "freak incident" was among many other things, a shattered mother board and a squashed processor – being flat not sure how squashing would hurt them anymore but still sounds painful.
Don’t panic equals instant panic
Why do the simple words "don’t panic" instantly result in any normal sane person turning into a screaming idiot? Along with the usual fact that put in front of a computer a rather too large percentage of humans turn into gibbering wrecks with the intelligence of slugs with crayons stuck up their noses; you utter these words and will receive instant floor show panic. It’s like some japanese toy wind up and watch them go scene. Next time someone has some IT related disaster try those fearful words and watch the mind dribbling insanity. If nothing else it makes a Friday afternoon pass quicker.
