11 tools to help reshape how you do business online today
This year has been … is being … an interesting year for me. At the turn of 08 to 09 I knew that this year held so much promise, so much potential. The media was hyping the year up in the negative sense, doom and gloom, financial ruin on every corner. Yet in the midst [...]
I know I know it’s been a little while since I actually blogged here – yeah I write things from time to time but what am I writing? What am I doing here? Goals, Targets and Celebrations If you want something in life, most people will tell you “set a goal” have a target, reach [...]
Tonight I’ve been having a play around with WolframAlpha … it’s not really due to go live until Monday US time, but they are doing some load testing and other bits over the next couple of days. If you are lucky, you might just find it running. So what is WolframAlpha? Well to be honest, [...]

Traffic – websites live and breathe with it – without, well we might as well all pack up and go home. I’ve increased traffic to studiowhiz.com by .. well a ton recently. The past week has seen this site having over 70,000 unique visitors stop by. How do you do it? Well traditionally it’s hard [...]
Twitter, it’s just the “bees knees” of the web social community. Sure it might be a 10th the size of Facebook (did you know Facebook apparently grows the size of twitter EVERY DAY?), still Twitter is the place everyone wants to be today. I’ve been on Twitter for a little while now (not a huge [...]
You might think that I’m not qualified to write a post about why I think Facebook sucks – and rewind two weeks and you’d be right. Sure I’d created some account many moons ago for me to dabble with, but after rumors of CIA involvement and other “conspiracies” I decided that was enough for me. [...]

How many times have you read a story about some great online success where the actual idea has come from someone with almost no coding experience or ability? These people are often forced to find someone else to create the [...]
Avatars are everywhere now, from your Twitter profile pic, to Skype, Gravatar to Facebook. If you don’t have one you want one, if you have one no doubt you like to update it every now and then. I recently had to recreate my avatar for my Twitter profile (oo00_Mr_K_00oo), and I whipped open Google to [...]
Hey all, I’m about to update the site to wordpress 2.7 beta 3 – why? Because it’s just so much better for everyone. 2.7′s changes seem to be mainly from the backend, the admin system, which makes managing the site & content so much better. I highly recommend updating (provided you’re comfortable with beta software), [...]
I’ve started using a URL shortening service called budurl.com recently to enable me to quickly and easily add short URL’s to Twitter. But budurl.com is more than that & I thought I’d show you a quick video taking a look at how & why I use budurl now. You’ll see I’m starting to use the [...]
I’ve now owned the www.studiowhiz.com domain since 16 Jan 2001, that’s coming up almost 8 years already and the site has been through a number of ups & downs since then. I actually started the site as go.to/studioworks.com before I could afford the real domain. Of course you’ll have noticed I couldn’t get StudioWorks, and [...]
