Goodbye Blackberry 8900, Hello Nokia N8 – Confessions of a techno-junkie brand-whore!
In case you haven’t yet figured it out, I am not like most people. The vast majority of us tend to stick to what is familiar and comfortable. Most major brands count on this single fact for much of their success. The recent ‘I am a PC!’ campaign by Microsoft as a response for the [...]
England Travelogue – Final Effing around Sussex, Food, Family, Flowers?
And so our UK holiday was drawing to a close. For our last few days we decided to stay close to home and spend time with the family. Of course, there was last-minute shopping to do to fill those remaining nooks and crannies in our luggage. We had been sure that since we had brought over [...]

Don’t be negative and let your scanning slide!
Perhaps like me, you have a whole bunch of photos, slides and negatives from years gone by sitting around.
