Everything we do at work is looking to the future - helping companies grow, predicting trends, seeing where technology is evolving - implementing AI! But sometimes it's lovely to just take a minute and look back. I've had to look back at some old projects this week, some of which…
We've worked with Sweetbird for a few years now, just helping them tinker around the edges of their existing WordPress site. As we know WordPress inside out, we "inherit" a lot of existing sites which the original developers can no longer support for various reasons. Maybe the site has grown…
Our things to do website, tooodle.com, is getting a facelift and new name: activibees.com!

Google Universal Analytics is being turned off in July 2023, as they move everyone to their new beast - GA4. Google have also been sending people emails lately to say they're automatically moving you over to GA4 this month (March) if you haven't moved yourself already. The change over -…
We've recently launched AvailabilityCal.com - a neat little tool to help ease that back and forth over email when you're trying to arrange a mutually convenient time for a meeting. Apparently the average meeting takes 7 emails to arrange - eugh! Now, as long as my Google Calendar is up…
I spotted an interesting approach to asking for Analytics cookies on themodernhouse.com at the weekend.
Can we rely on ChatGPT to produce unique content for us each and every time?
