November 14, 2007

Conversion Matters gets a redesign!

November 13, 2007

Well after 5 or so months with the same theme I decided it was time to change and update. Especially as I keep seeing other blogs using ‘my’ old theme.

Who needs Twitter when you’ve got Facebook status updates?

October 22, 2007

Well I’ve used Twitter once – I signed up and Twittered or whatever they call it, and then never used it again! Why? Because it seems totally pointless to me. It’s like a limited Facebook. I don’t have any friends on Twitter whereas I have loads of friends on Facebook.
