Brand new hashtag alert: #centrural broadband deprivation zones! Are you in a #centruralbdz??
I’m not just in it for the pun and it seems quite appropriate in an economy where rural areas have real issues getting their cabinets to be upgraded for fibre, and being in the city centre means you are only *marginally* better off. So, speaking as a tech company leader, I’ve come up with the #centrural term to ….
Breathe easy SME, Dad’s staying put?!?!
In my junk mail today I received this message from employment lawyers who shall remain nameless (not Nameless) entitled “Breathe easy SME, Dad’s staying put”: Employers running smaller businesses (less than 250 employees) will be pleased to hear that new Dads are less likely to take advantage of the new shared parental leave allowance.

Slavery in the supply chain, and Bristol’s part in ending it

The transcendence from a traditional to modern digital designer.
First off, I’m going to tell myself to “deal with it!”, We’re in an industry of perpetual change that is governed by changes in technology ever approaching its singularity; if we don’t embrace and ride the wave we get pulled into the riptide. Part 1: Death Over the last three or four years the ….
The Butterfly Effect
As the owner of a small yet carefully tended raised bed, containing a mixture of edibles including carrots and lettuce, the term ‘butterfly effect’ conjures up a number of mental images. They may look pretty, but Butterflies are just as much of a pest as any of the ugly insects. I guess it goes to ….
