Official Product Launch

Official Product Launch published on 1 Comment on Official Product Launch

2010 seems to have had far more product launches than I ever remember seeing before.
Certainly more than 2009, at least. And I am guessing that 2011 will bring even more.

The internet, online tools, open-source software and easily sourced business incubators, has meant that it can be very easy to get a new business idea launched. Often, this can all be done with very little start-up capital expenses.

Some of these businesses become very popular and profitable. Many more of these do not.
Let’s focus on these for now. They are much more fun to know about!

Those bad words

Those bad words published on 2 Comments on Those bad words

This comic is my attempt to help out mankind.
I feel it is time to finally reveal the truth about how all those bad, unwanted and NSFW words end up in our browser cache.

The answer is simple – CATS!

The popularity of LOLcats and cats on the internet in general, has gotten us fooled into believing they are cute, cuddly and a little bit stupid. But that is just what they want you to think.

In fact, I believe that cats are the source of many of the problems in our world.
It makes perfect sense – especially when you consider that  “CATastrophe” is the word used for bad things that happen and it has the word “CAT” in it.
Co-incidence? I think not. More like a warning that we are ignoring.

I must stop writing now. My cat is watching me…………………………………..

Movember Mo Stash

Movember Mo Stash published on

As you are probably aware by now, Movember will soon be upon us again.
This year, I will not be growing a Mo. I have done this for the past few years, and this year the world needs a break from the awesomeness that I produce.

My moustache is so manly, that it is classified as a lethal weapon. Think I am kidding? See the proof in this actual image of my effort from last year,  below.tough-stache

As you can see, it is not fair to unleash this on the world again.

But fear not – although I am not personally growing a mo, I will be supporting Movember in my own way.
I will be posting images over the next few weeks, which will show a little moustache image on them, like the one above does.
Any pics with this moustache icon will be free for Movember participants to download and use as they see fit.

You don’t even need to link back to my site if you don’t want to, but it would be nice.

More new pics, especially for Movember, will be posted soon.
In the meantime, I have also prepared an emergency moustache for you in case you need one fast!
