Being a programmer makes this extra frustrating because it really quite a simple thing to build if you have the content. The content is easy to, that’s just however many hours for a temp to plug it all in.

Then you come across a site like lenshero.com. Ahhh, now THAT’s how you do it! Easy.

If you want to buy a lens, tell the site what camera you have, what lens you want, or what you already own, and they show you the results. Simple. Love it!

Imagine you have a web site with two pages, both pages containing text and 3 images.

If someone comes opens the home page, clicks to the second page and then leaves you will have;

1. 1 visit
2. 2 page views
3. 8 Hits

They have visited the website and no matter how many pages they look at, it is one visit until the session is closed. Sessions are usually ended by the user closing the browser or clicking through to another website.

During that visit they viewed two pages, the home page as one and then the second page.

Each page records 4 hits, the 3 images plus the HTML page containing the images and text. The server has produced 4 files in total for the home page, but because they opened the second page that also contains 3 images and another HTML page, that adds another 4 hits.

The title comes from the <title>This is my Link</title> tag.

The description similarly comes from the META tag <meta name=”description” content=”The Description” />

The image basically looks at all the images on the page over 100 px, and then sorts it by the largest image first, and then position. The image can also have a style display of none so that it is hidden from the browser, but visible to FB.

The Hills M2 Motorway is not the cheapest so when you pay almost $5 then sit in road works traffic is suck big time. When it’s clear I think it’s worth the money, considering fuel usage etc. Which makes this use of Twitter pretty cool, but if you don’t tell anyone about it, who going to follow?

The M2 even has signs up on the motorway to direct them to the website, but why not use Twitter as the call to action instead? Of course people will say “But I don’t have Twitter”, but people will still find their website anyway.

This is IGN review which is great, and even Margaret from ABC’s At the Movies has giving it 4.5 stars.

I espacially love the angle they have put on the marking of the film, particularly in digital. Check out the website: http://www.d-9.com/

It doesn’t need to look like a magazine, it just needs to be readable like a mag.

Holden have done this very nicely by keeping is easy to use but also having the big glossy images and not overflowing with copy your never going to read.

Google apps give you an mail server with 7GB of space per user and up to 50 users in the standard free version. Plenty of space, and the easy of GMail. Then you also get GTalk chat, calendar, sites and Google Docs all connected to your own domain. Sweet!

Works nicely on the mobile to.

There is a bit of setup with the domain, chaging or adding MX records and CNAME records, but if you have control of the DNS for your domain, like through Domain Central then you can convert a domain over within the hour.

I’ve just converted all my domains over!!

I really like www.domain.com.au new refine search function. It is completely reactive to the data on the screen.

Their old method was selecting how many bedroom or more, now you can checkbox exactly how many you want. Which is cool but besides that it will only show you options that are relevant to the current data. In other words, if there are no 1 bedders, then 1 bedroom is not an option.

Easier to use, and most importantly, it is neat and works sharp. No useless graphical crap, nice and quick.
