Email Spam

I did a test yesterday for that 24 hour period. I knew that I get HEAPS of email spam (junk mail) that I didn’t request. Over the 1 day I got 160 junk emails. Thanks to Google’s email system (Gmail), nearly all of these were trapped and weren’t downloaded to my machine.

Thanks big G!

New Mac TV Ads

Apple have released some new ads that has a few good points that encourage people to “Get a Mac“:

  1. It just works.
  2. You can make amazing stuff.
  3. Design that turns heads.
  4. 114,000 Viruses? Not on a Mac.
  5. Next year’s OS today.
  6. The latest Intel chips.
  7. Instant video chats.
  8. More fun with photos.
  9. One-click websites.
  10. Amazing podcasts.
  11. Rock star tune-making.
  12. Hollywood-style movies.
  13. No hunting for drivers.
  14. Awesome out of the box.

I agree with these points – they are why I use a Mac too.

Qualified Carpenter Wanted in Melbourne

I am a qualified carpenter (did a 4 year apprenticeship in Brisbane in the early 90’s) but I am NOT looking for work as a carpenter in Melbourne. I am now-a-days building cyber space as opposed to real houses, extensions or doing renovations.

I do like working as a carpenter but at the moment am taking a break from the Victorian building industry to focus on designing and building effective websites for small businesses in Melbourne.
