More Videos
Videos are proving to me they are a unique and great way to promote content, and in an appealing way that is so hard to achieve using text or text and imaginary together in the more traditional manner. I can see the real benefits in creating a video channel on youtube, though it is unfortunate […]
Read MoreBored Panda – what a great name
I love sites that have orginal names, I worked in the Domain Industry for a few years, and was always stuck by the success that people had with unusual and interesting names.
