• It Isn't Always the Brands to Blame for Social Media Screw Ups
    When a brand screws up in social media, critics are swift and often unforgiving, as is the current case with Toyota. But is it really the brand that we should be blaming?

  • If LinkedIn.com Fails in the Social Network Forest, Will It Make a Sound?
    While LinkedIn is the professional social network of choice, it may not be all it's cracked up to be, as Kevin Green shows in this guest post.

All Your Blog Redesign Are Belong to Us

Hey guys. So I’m in a bit of a quandary, and was wondering if you could help? I’m about to update the look and feel of my blog, as Lisa from SceneStealer Graphics finalizes some design tweaks over at my development area. It’s been a long road for Lisa, as she’s had to work around some of the Headway theme’s quirks and programming. But it’s almost ready to be switched on. However… I’m now toying with the idea of a…read more

Blog Design Revamp Part 1

If you’re a regular reader or visitor here, you’ll know that my blog has undergone a bit of a style redesign this weekend.

Making the Switch to Headway

While I’m a big fan of Chris Pearson’s Thesis, I found it wasn’t quite so user-friendly for making major design changes (unless you were a decent level of coder). Because of this, many of the blogs using Thesis have a very similar look. Enter Headway. Developed…read more

Competition and Changes

Image by presta via Flickr For regular readers of this blog, you’ve probably noticed the change in design. Again. Despite the previous one being in use for less than a month. So my apologies for any confusion – I swear I’m not going through an identity crisis! Unfortunately, while I did like the design of the previous theme, there were some compatibility issues with some of the plug-ins that I use. These couldn’t be worked around, so the result is…read more
