Death to Creatives
I am not a creative. You are not a creative. No one could ever or will ever be a creative. The word creative is not a noun. It is an adjective used to describe a noun. Are you a creative??? Click on the link!

Hi Walter

Been working hard and not online. But i could have something for someone you may want to help out.

I know someone looking for a layout artist on a contract basis.
It is for a top retail operations in SA and it should be a good opportunity.
If you know someone who is looking for extra work please do drop me a line.

this may seem like a doff question: how does one refer to a twitter "address" on a biz card?

Hi Walter,

Hi Walter,

would be easier to describe what I can do which is only comment (not approve comments) and add friends... I cant reply to your mail even.

Nothing worked since I started using this site months ago and its still the same.
I inititially thought it was all the plug ins I use for development in Firefox, but since then I have tried it in IE, Safari and chrome and none of them worked I even tried someone else's computer.

So im starting to think its perhaps only my profile?

Thanks
Michelle

Why Reputation Management Matters for Small Businesses

Never has the opinion of the individual been as powerful as it is today. One negative blog post or product review can spread online in a flash and change the direction of a company. Need proof? See Jeff Jarvis’ 2005 blog post, Dell lies. Dell sucks, which created the “Dell Hell” phenomenon and forced the company to make big changes to how it interacts with its customers.

We’re doing business in an era when search engines appear to be putting greater value on blogs and user-generated content; wh… Continue
