I’ve had a Google Mail account since 2005, but it’s only since I set up Google Hosted Apps (using your own domains etc) that I’ve really started using it to the full. My latest addiction is the Calendar. The reminders flexibility is great; you can choose from email, popups, or SMS and have them fired [...]

While I was in Cyprus, I got taken for a wander around IKEA. I was an IKEA virgin, so it was a fun experience. I was impressed with the general quality of the items, the vast array of choice, and the sheer brilliance of some of the designs.
When I got back I made a [...]

So, I’ve been exchanging emails with my new friend in South Africa for about a week now. I’m pleased to say everything is going well and I am guaranteed to receive $500,000 as soon as he receives my payment for the [...]

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day; but it can get a little boring. Day in, day out, munching the same old boring cereal or porridge. So how can you liven it up with little effort, make it immensely healthy, and give your tastebuds a treat?
Add some fresh fruit, some fibre, and some [...]
