What is this Twitter all about?
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s time to catch up on the latest social media phenomenon – Twitter.
How it works: With Twitter you send short messages of 140 characters or less – these are known as “tweets” — to any other Twitter member (a tweep) who has chosen to “follow” you. You can send the messages from your computer and you can send or receive tweets via your cell phone.
Twitter accounts are free, and if you learn how to gather a community of followers, you have an audience that you can reach out and “tweet” your message to anytime, anywhere.

New blog design
Posted on 04. Sep, 2009 by Sheryl.
Mary Anne Morgan has been a client for a few years now, interestingly enough we’ve never met as she lives in the US. We originally met through istockphoto as she is a photographer. Since then we’ve had lots of contact and I’ve loved being her designer. Her photography is gorgeous so it gave me great pleasure to design a new blog for her that reflects her personal style. I also created a new logo and brand elements for her. You can visit her new blog design at www.maryannemorganblog.com.
