Hi, I’m Craig Bailey and this is my personal blog where I write about technology, business systems, HubSpot, marketing strategy and general life experiences. You can read my posts here.
(If you are looking for the Content is King post by Bill Gates it is here)
I’m involved with three agencies in Sydney:
I also co-host HubShots, the podcast and YouTube show focussed on getting the most out of HubSpot. We are the creators of the HubShots Framework.
This is a difficult one to announce, but I have to let everyone in the Fox community know that I’ve made a drastic change to the Sydney VFP User Group. In this post I’ll outline the reasons why and the outcomes I am hoping for. Firstly, I need to let people know that the Sydney VFP UG is effectively closing down. In its place I am starting a new group which focuses (in a broad...
Solution: Set Hardware Acceleration to Full Problem: My mouse movement was really sluggish in a VPC running Windows 2003 R2 (but other OSes are fine) Acknowledgement: Thanks to Paul Adare on the Microsoft Newsgroup for sorting this one out Here's the steps: Right click on Desktop, select Display Properties Settings Tab Advanced Button Troubleshoot Tab Slide the Hardware Acceleration tab to...
Bottom line: you need to completely uninstall and reinstall office! As part of my re-install recently I had to reinstall Office 2007. Not a drama. But when I first started Outlook I made the mistake of not setting up an email account right away (silly me!). Well it turns out that Outlook didn’t really like this, and crashed when getting through the wizard and attempting to display the Home...
Just wondering if you could do me a favour… I’m trying to get a better handle on my readership, so I was hoping you’d be kind enough to subscribe to my FeedBurner feed instead of directly point to the Blogger URL. All you need to do is point your RSS reader to this: If you are just browsing (i.e. not using a RSS reader) then you can also use the new URL, but it won’t look as...
I love Picasa as a photo (and video) organiser. And I especially love how easy it is to put your photos on the web as albums (with no advertising!). It only takes a few clicks and a whole Picasa album is then available for friends and family to see. And although I had backed up all my photos (probably the most precious items on my machine when I think about it) I had never thought about backing...
Well, it’s great to be back. The last few weeks of ‘increased productivity’ J have been due to my notebook’s premature death. Not to worry, Magic Dave (Talman’s IT guru) got me all back up and running and in the process loaded Vista on my machine (the machine required a complete reformat and install). And on the weekend I finally got around to reinstalling FeedDemon...
Thanks to Pete Huish for sending this little gem to me. Yes, we’ve all sat through these kinds of presentations – in fact some of the examples here are so bad I was wondering if they had been staged… but very funny all the same.
Technorati tags: Presentation skills NOT
SOLUTION: Reduce the MTU setting on my ADSL router PROBLEM: We had a really weird thing happening from home where wee couldn’t connect to a few web sites. Microsoft was one and SMH (A sydney newspaper) was another. But all others were fine. Also, Michele and I trouble sending and receiving email from our home account. I could VPN in to work and browse the sites fine, so it was looking like...
I’m sure you all know about Goran’s blog by now (thanks to Jamie’s link last month). If not then check it out here (RSS here).
Goran is the manager of the Tab Menus project on VFPx, a big supporter of VFP in Australia and an all round good guy (perhaps even a clever cookie :-)

Just a quick note to publicly thank Mitch and Greg for putting on another excellent code camp this year. The sessions covered .Net, AJAX, SharePoint, Security, TFS, WCF, WPF, BizTalk, CRM, Windows Mobile 6, Parallel computing and even XNA. I’ve been to all 3 code camps so far, and in my opinion they are getting better. The presenters this year were all of high standard. They are also...
