Social media is more than just another marketing channel. It offers the small and big business alike, new routes to engage and build relationships with their customers and the wider community.
It can help you understand the changing marketplace, provide a route to inform and educate your target market as well as drive new and returning business. (more…)

Marketing and advertising are often the first budgets to be cut when fears start to emerge over the state of the economy. However, as seen with Coke and Nike during the last recession, putting more into these budgets can reap massive rewards. (more…)

There has never been a better time to explore the many free applications, software, online services and networks available on the web.
With many companies, organisations and individuals generating new content all the time it is worth taking the time to see how each may improve the way you do business, research or networking online.
In this post I have attempted to catalogue some of the many sources I have found useful in my role researching and advising companies at uknetweb on the possibilities presented by Web 2.0.
Some of the links refer to other list blogs cataloging the best of the web, others are my own selections and some are link to directories I found useful when browsing the web.
I discovered the Flock browser at the beginning of this year after noticing that friends on Facebook were joining up as fans.
A dedicated user of the Mozilla Firefox system, I had my reservations of moving to yet another browser and all the issues in cross browser compatibility on badly developed sites I was sure to have.
On download, I found a browser well beyond my expectations and one that I believe enhances my online experience and my efficiency in carrying out research and networking online. Using the same image rendering as Firefox (according to my techie friends in the office), I don’t need to worry about any new browser compatibility issues at all.
So why do I recommend Flock?
