Latest Coalition Cuts

The ConDems are planning massive cuts to the funding of UK Universities.
Planned cuts from the current £3.9 billion the government currently subsidise the Universities to a only £7 million will leave the students having to pay alot more for their education. the current ceiling that Universities can charge students is £3290 a year, this is to be scrapped and Universities can charge ht ever they wish.
 Lord Browne , former boss of BP feels that this give more power to the students. The Universities will be able to double, treble or even quadruple their fees, this will according to Lord Browne will take power away from the Universities, and give power to the studentys. The students will have the power to say, no I can't afford to go to university, I wasn't aware that at present, they didn't have this power.
Lord Browne, has calulated that a student will make 400% profit from paying the extra tuition fees. Only the important science, or medical courses will have a small piece of the £7million, the other courses wil get nothing.
Lord Browne as well as most of the government gained their university degrees funded for them by the tax payer. the LibDems won there seats, by pledging to abolish universitive fees. The conservatives have stooped the school building programmes in order to fund their own type of "Free Schools" while also stopping the refurbishment of derelict school our children are going to. Unfortunately the condition of some schools, with leaking roofs and no heating, are not the concern of this government. If these children were animals, they would have rights, as human beings they have none.
I don't know how much Lord Browne was paid to suggest the government investment in university funding should be cut from £3.9 billion to just £7million, it probably took less than 1 hour to think of it  and write it down.
I think that all MP's should work for free, that will save the country millions of pounds, my fee for this suggestion is a mere £2.5 million. read more

Twitter Update


You may have noticed that just lately all your Twitter apps have changed. This is because Twiter is now using 'OATH' and the apps you have been using can no longer store your password. Tweetader is one that has changed, with  a few additions, and unfortunately one facility they have dropped is the 'refress button'.
Twitter are rolling out a new home page to enable you to link to all your favourite social sites. I suspect that we will be having targeted ads on our home pages shortly, similar to those on Facebook.
I have updated  the tweaks and techniques you can use to get more from Tweetadder and Twitter. the page is here. Hope you like it!

You are about to lose ALL YOUR PRIVACY

If you thought the last post gave you some cause for alarm, wait until you read what is being planned.
About 12 months ago Apple lost a court case prohibiting people unlocking their phones, and going with a cheaper tariff, and allowing people to run third party apps on their phones. At the same time, Apple were applying for a patent to collect and store customer information, in order to wipe the phone clean, and disable it in the event of it being stolen. Good news you may think: well think again.
Apple intend to fit a microphone to their cell phones, which will record and transmit data back to Apple as long as the phone is turned on. Apple will also have the ability to record what you say on your phone, and your surfing habits.
The phone will also take a photograh of the person using the phone without them realising, and it will take a photo of your surroundings.
Apple will know where you have been, where you are now, what stores you have beeen into, what you have said to your doctor or solicitor,what websites you have visited, they will also know what you have said on our phone, and if you put you phone on your bedside cabinet, well you can guess what will happen.

Are we Losing all Our Privacy?

Do you Care about surrendering you Privacy?

When you go into a small town or a large city, you are continually being tracked on CCTV.Big Brother [ the government] claims it is for our own good, and to be honest the police do make good use of this facility, in dealing with crime., as well as the security services. Big Brother claim if you are honest you have nothing to lose, except your privacy.
Your mobile phone is continually being tracked, every few seconds your phone sends a signal out saying ‘I can see 4 wi-fi networks with these signal strengths’, the response comes back ‘OK you are at the corner of High St. and Main St.’ leaving a traceable trail of where you have been. You can get a piece of free legal software from Locate which will trace and track a mobile phone. So where is your privacy now?
  • But you are honest with nothing to hide!
  • How would you like your ‘ex’ to know your every move?
  • What about your employer, when you phone in to work saying you are sick?
  • Does your company approve of its reps being tracked by its competitors?
  • What about your mother tracking you when you go for a night out?

Twitter +Tweetadder = lots more followers


The post “Be a Guest Blogger” was widely read, and resulted in a massive increase in the number of people who subscribed to the feed and to an average of 200 extra people a day who followed us on Twitter.


The article “How to Use Twitter Effectively ” also had an equally successful reception. Both these blogs show the very effective method of using 3 different blog intro’s to the same article. Check them out on these blogs. On our site, on our server, and on Googles’ Blogspot.

The response from these has prompted me to write this article ‘Tweetadder and Twitter’. Your Tweets on twitter are available for anyone in the world to read [unless you have made them private], so why not make money out of them? I mentioned Tweetadder in my last post, if you haven’t downloaded the free trial yet, I strongly recommend you do it now. They are other versions of this on the internet, all more expensive [one I have seen is over $800 A MONTH]. Currently in excess of 600 people have downloaded the free trial from the article ‘How to Use Twitter Effectively’

Twitter for Business

Business twitter users have a great advantage over the majority of users. The primary focus for a business is a 2 pronged campaign. Firstly to drive visitors to your site, and secondly to brand your company name or, reinforce the brand. A company has the potential to create many Twitter accounts. Since we have been using twitter, we have seen a marked increase in the number of targeted visitors. The way 60% of our visitors found us was through Google, now Twitter is sending us about the same number of visitors as Google does, every day. Dell Computers has 100 staff doing nothing else but send out tweets, each one uses a different username, and the email is ‘username’ @del.com. Does that tell you anything?


What Twitter Won’t tell you.

After a couple of weeks you can grow your twitter followers by 400 to 500 a week. The problem is the 2,000 figure. As you are approaching the 2,000 figure, Twitter limits the number of Follows you can send out.[By any method] If you have for instance 1,800 followers you can only send out a maximum of 200 follows,[The problem 2,000 figure] which if you are working on the recommended 3 day cycle by the Tweetadder, is only 66 a day. As you get closer to the 2,000 figure it gets harder. You can try unfollowing some followers, but this tends to defeat the object. When you have reached the 2,000 mark Twitter restrict the ratio of follows to followers to 1.1 which slows down the growth for some considerable time. read the full article
