Over the years, I have noticed that a lot of my clients do not use the Internet to its full capability. They can send and receive e-mails, browse web pages, perhaps do a bit of shopping, but many... More > have not fully embraced the technology. Many too have not added the protection to their computers to stop spam, offensive e-mails and criminal frauds.
So I started a series of notes that allowed clients, friends and family to understand the Internet better.
These notes have now grown into a book of nearly 500 pages.
This has been designed to help you navigate the shark-infested swamp that the Internet has become, so that your business and personal life is made much simpler, less stressful and is considerably improved.
In the book, I have also deliberately avoided expensive solutions and methods, as there are enough people selling you this type of wasteful solution. A lot of the methods chosen are not only very good but free!< Less
Celia Miller was a wife, well-respected barrister, successful racehorse owner and breeder, mother, breast-cancer survivor, grandmother and an extensive and intrepid traveller.Tragically, Celia died... More > on the 11th of December 2007, of a secondary squamous cell carcinoma of the heart, as an age of just fifty-nine. She had been ill for only two months and had vainly fought the illness with all the courage and fortitutude that she could muster.Trivially in 2003, I was diagnosed as a coeliac. This means that I have a gluten-intolerance and can't eat any wheat, barley or rye. So that means I can't eat bread, beer or pasta.But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy life.Hence the title of this book, which is a sideways look at travel with the woman you love and the condition that sometimes can give you an awful surprise or even a very hard kick.But I'd rather be a coeliac, than suffer Celia's rare and fatal cancer.James MillerJune 1st, 2008< Less
I am plagued by spam more than the average individual as I started the daisy.co.uk web site in about 1991. In those days, I naively put a lot of e-mail addresses into the web pages, using the... More > mailto: link.It was very much a mistake as spammers from all over the world harvested the addresses and then started to send me rubbish of all sorts. At first it was amusing, but as time went on it got more and more annoying. It started with cess pit emptying, drugs of all sorts, replica watches and other luxury goods, pornography and rubbish shares and has since moved on to attempts at fraud and virus distribution.I now get upwards of thirty thousand spam messages a day!That is a downright nuisance, but it also gives me a unique opportunity to collect, sort and analyse all of those annoying messages.This note is an attempt to put some figures, conclusions and thoughts to everything.James MillerJune 1st, 2008< Less
