I have often displayed this site's stats on a page right at the very top, in very boring boxes on a very boring background. As functional as that is, it's not very nice to look at. So, I have been looking at the rise of the infographic (funky image displaying stats and facts) and thought [...]
You may have seen recently that I have two new ad slots available on the right hand side of this site. UAP, after 18 months, have come to the end of their advertising on my site, and they got a huge number of clicks on their advert! So, there are now five ad slots available [...]

>10th March 2011 marks the two year milestone for this blog! I've enjoyed writing every post, getting in to the odd scrape and ruffling a few feathers. The conversations and debate has been great!
