From being the first thing I checked the first moment I got online, I [...]

Gino Cosme, a colleague of mine at Cerebra, has managed to do what I so desperately want to do but lack the fortitude to accomplish - he’s not only published a free Introductory Guide to Social Media for download, but he’s keeping it regularly updated.

The service is painfully simple to use but incredibly powerful. Standard Bank [...]

You would have gathered that we’ve finally moved into our new offices, and I’m pleased to report that it’s only taken 2 days for us to get our first Loeries!  How cool is that!?
