Another month slipped by and no posts. We at iMaker have been busy over the period since last posting, with new websites ordered, built and launched. We have certainly seen an increase in the number of enquiries coming through so have high hopes for the future. Thanks to all those involved and long may it continue.

Elsewhere the big G still seems to be struggling, more updates have been filtering through. There were rumours that it was broken or that it had lost data, there’s no confirmation of that but the serps do seem to bear out that there could be some fact in those rumours. There is so much garbage in the search listings it’s worrying. G is currently in the middle of a page rank update, or “export” as their employees like to call it.

The new iphone finally got an outing and we all here think it’s just the most wanted in our wish list. Shame to have to wait a while before we can get one.

Vista has arrived, but strangely there isn’t quite such a clamour in the ranks to get hold of a copy as there is for the iphone. Past MS releases have forced the writer to take a long view and to wait until someone else has found all the bugs. When the SE or SP2 version comes out with those initial bugs fixed, then I may “dip my toe into the water” and give it a go, but not before.
Managed too eradicate the spam coming through this blog, now if only I could do the same for my email inbox.

Content management research has shown that my personal favourite is CMS made simple. I’m still testing and developing but have found it does what I want it to. The odd thing though is that I would still like it to generate xhtml pages as an alternative to php for static sites but that’s probably just me.

Finally IE7, I’ve been using it for a while now and have found, much to my surprise, that I actually quite like it.
