I've often contemplated ways that my blog could make money. But in the end I went with 'rant about the online universe', 'random link' and 'hey check out my photography' style. Now that I have read this interesting article, I am thinking again about how I might make money from binary words. The Dark Side... Continue Reading →
Offering all that You can
If you knew someone who is wheel-chair bound, what could/would you offer them to do that they wouldn't be able to without leg-use? I ask because I recently made friends with a guy on the train (after righting an injustice), and I wanted to offer him an opportunity that he would not otherwise be able... Continue Reading →
Surviving Change
My QotD: Change is good. Change is difficult. Whereas underestimating the value and importance of change is hazardous to one's soul and future. Appreciating the fact that change is inevitable is smart thinking. Even if it takes a little time to realise.
How to Make Money from a Liquidation
Most Australians would know by now that BORDERS are in liquidation. As an avid book reader, I am dismayed by this, yet am thankful we have other great book suppliers in Adelaide. (Dymocks and Angus&Robertson to name a few!) Despite knowing about the liquidation a few months ago, it wasn't until tonight that I actually... Continue Reading →

From all the professional photographers I've consulted, the f/2.8 is the ideal professional lens that fits my budget! While... Continue Reading →
Make a Home-Made Snoot for your Flash-Gun
I've had this idea for a snoot for about six months. But the issue was how to fit the square peg (flash gun) into the round white plastic ("Betty Crocker" frosting tub). A few nights ago the idea appeared before in my day-bag: About eighteen months ago I got a Apple Touch. Within six months,... Continue Reading →
Getting into my Groove
One thing I always enjoy doing when I am bored: Designing or redesigning logo's. Because I have good quality programs (now!) and a creative mindset, I like seeing how I would present a logo if it were up to me. Many of them are not publishable because they are businesses that can afford to sue... Continue Reading →
The IE6 Mouse Pad
My IE6 Mouse Pad. Design also appears on T-shirt and Mug. I have caught the Zazzle-bug. Yeah, I have my own store-front. I';m slowly moving all my shirts from my Redbubble gallery (that are not related to photography) over to Zazzle. This was going to be just another shirt to put onto my Redbubble gallery,...
