Ideas. Creativity. Business. IP. Life.
One thing I have discovered in lockdown is my love for cross country cycling. I used to cycle indoors but when I was given the options of a dark room with lots of other sweaty bodies or the beautiful views of the great Yorkshire countryside, there was frankly no competition! I have really…
DetailsI met Sherwette 2 1/2 years ago when we did a business course together. Sherwette has a background in consumer behaviour research and now works in management consulting in customer experience. She calls herself the ‘Consumer Behaviour Gal’. Back then she had a blog at www.Sherwette.com and had a plan to write a book.…
DetailsWhen we are working on computers, a crucial thing to learn about is the size of files and the implications of this. A file size is the measure of how much data a computer file contains or how much storage it consumes. Online is no different to offline. A large file with lots…
DetailsHi Everyone What a year it has been for everyone. So many things have happened that we haven’t expected – there have been tears, joy, losses, grief – wow. I know it’s been like that for you too. It’s been a rollercoaster for sure. So I wanted to leave the year on a positive…
