Geek Queen Small business websites - by a small business!

Arrived home from a months holiday yesterday. My laptop that I spend $800 on before I left wont start. My tablet won't use the top row of keys and my phone keeps shuting down.

I'm starting to think its me!!

I often see cool adaptations of necessary website items, like 404 pages for example.

For those of you who don't know a 404 page is what a visitor sees if your website has a broken link if they type something into the browser that isn't correct. It usually tells the visitor that that page doesn't exist and that they are effectively lost.

One of my favourite hiking gear websites had a great 404 page for ages which had a photo of a guy with a backpack on in some remote mountains somewhere looking around only to see a random goat standing on the crest. The text said "even the goat knows you're lost".

Today I saw a great one with regard to the cookie notification websites need to have now. It asked me "Can we put cookies in your cupboard"? So clever and made me smile...

Zoho - how hard would it be to have all your apps use the same date format?? It doesn't seem like rocket science and its so frustrating to have to reformat simple things like dates to go from the CRM to Projects. Just saying....

I find it really strange that Google makes an Authentication app (that I use for so many things) BUT you can't use it as a secondary authentication option for their own email addresses. That is weird isn't it???

How frustrating is it when spam calls come to your work phone and THEY hang up before you get to. Grrrr..... The least they could do is let me hang up first!!

So great to see a mammoth business such a Google ignore politics and go "grey" to recognise the day one of Brittan's biggest assets has left us. Even to those of us who don't think about the Queen on a regular basis, Google has nailed it. A little bit of color is gone from the world today.

RIP Queen Elizabeth II - She stood fast through a young coronation, wars, scandals, family dramas and deaths of loved ones to put England first and foremost every time. He dignity, grace, courage and commitment is not often seen these days and she will be missed.

And to Meghan, smile, nod and try not to make this about you!

I'm a little late in showing off our latest client "Drunk On Scent". Have you ever smelled that delicious Baileys and wondered how you would get it into your daily life? Drunk On Scent can do just that. While alcohol scents are their signature range, they also offer quality soy candles (hand poured), with aroma's like Gardenia, High Tide, Sticky Mudcake and many more.

Check them out at www.drunkonscent.com.au and of course let us know what you think of the website.

Surely they didn't spend 10,000,000.00 on a new logo for Australia Made??

I LOVE the connection to country as described here:

--- "Yanyuwa man, Balarinji chair and cultural director, John Moriarty, described the logo as a "kangaroo ... bounding forward, reflecting Australia's optimism".
"It is formed by a contemporary expression of three boomerangs," he said.
"The head is the hooked '7' boomerang used in ceremonies as a percussive instrument for song and dance.
"The body and tail are boomerangs used for hunting or foraging for food, or to connect with softwood to spark fire. This kangaroo tells the story of country, of belonging and of living sustainably." ---

That is such an excellent outcome for such an iconic symbol of Australia.

However, did they really spend 10M on a logo?? Let's hope the 10 mill is a budget to kick start new promotion of Australia Made worldwide.

How on earth do these people think that this is ever going to work? I just don't understand the time involved and the responses they must get! I realise there are some people that probably don't know about all these email and internet scams, but really - think about it scammers.

1: Who is ever going to believe it when the from email is [email protected] & the return email is [email protected]
2: Wouldn't it be more believable if you talked about some kind of realistic figure. Like maybe that I've been left $3247. 16.2 million is just not quite realistic.
3: Joseph W***y Gilles - really?? That's the best "lawyer" name you can come up with?

I do want to be that guy who answers him, but sadly I actually have a job!

I know I'm late, but I'm still on holidays. All my very best wishes to everyone for an amazing 2022.
