Disclaimer: I may or may not be slightly overtired from moving. And I may or may not have had a glass of wine very recently while doing a bit of work. OK, fine. I am and I did. Grammar police and any other police-y type peeps, don’t hate. Appreciate. Ha. OK, right… onward. So I don’t actually know what a donkey’s tickler is. I totally made that part up. hehe But really...
Howdy BGB’ers. So. On average, five tweets per second contain a Vine link, according to research from tech company Unruly. Consider Vine reports more than 40 million registered users and parent company Twitter reports more than 241 million active monthly users, and you can imagine the potential reach of those six-second videos.

A blog, a portmanteau of the words “web log” is an informal site on the Internet, where people – referred to as “bloggers” – can keep a diary of their lives or report on current events as they see them, as...
Considering BGB has been hacked twice in the last 2 years or so, I thought this was an informative infographic to share. Thank you to God both times BGB was hacked it wasn’t “too” serious and I didn’t lose any data. But I very well could have, and that’s a little scary. Which means I should probably start investigating and putting a disaster recovery plan of my own...
I’d say that’s an affirmative my lovely. Your brand has gone mobile, whether you’ve taken it there or not. Or at least your clients have. So if you haven’t yet, you should probably get on it.

This is a guest post courtesy of Teddy Hunt. I probably could should be monetizing BGB a wee bit more than I currently am, but hey… to each their own right?

I also do a bit of affiliate marketing here and there when I come across a product...
