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.
O07: Office 2007 Technical Refresh thoughtsI was going to attempt to work in some witty James Bond references (eg Office 07 = O07 – License to Thrill, Live and Let (Toolbars) Die, The World is (Still) Not Enough, A View to a (conditional formatting) Fill, etc, etc) but soon realised none of them were remotely funny…So, let’s give the new Office 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh a one...
I’m sure everyone who reads this blog already reads Andrew MacNeill’s (and if not, then why not?). So, the reason I’m linking to his BINDEVENT post is mainly so that I remember to use it soon. I’m ashamed to admit I still use some ancient code in my projects (not that I write much code these days…) that replaces grid header code with a custom class… it’s...
Is anyone else wondering where the Visual FoxPro September newsletter is? I’m hanging out for Milind’s report on Advisor Devcon (Rick’s here was great reading) and other news about the Sedna project…
Great to read Doug’s feedback on Prague. See also Dave Crozier’s report – great reading.

As a very experienced audience member {g} I deeply applaud his first suggestion on being well prepared. probably picked up my lack of excitement about under prepared speakers in previous posts. But it comes down to this: I don’t care if you are...
Yes, another(!) beta. Download it here. I know we promised to release this ages ago, but we’ve been slack… This release fixes a few minor items (eg the flickering between tab changes) and brings consistency between tab icon and tab label behaviour.A big, big thank you to Tracy P who has done most of the work for these fixes. If you’ve been following the...
Interesting to see no one blogging about how VFP has fallen back to position 18 in the TIOBE index. This from 13 a month or two back. Not surprising really I guess given how quiet the VFP blogosphere has been lately.
Craig Boyd, please help, we need another call to action…
PreambleI attended TechEd 2006 in Sydney last week and was disappointed. In this post I’ll outline some suggestions I think Microsoft should consider in order to improve the event for next year.Firstly though, a brief note on my expectations going in to TechEd.My reasons for attending TechEd were:– to better understand Microsoft’s product range,– to understand their...
Classic stuff. Jensen Harris comes to terms with the stupidity of hype-induced Australian journalists.I wish I could take credit for this kind of misinformation spreading – it’d make a great April Fool’s prank. No doubt some clown at TechEd last week is responsible.
The always interesting and extremely serious {g} Anil Dash comments nicely on Google Apps for your Domain.I especially liked his second main point explaining why Google Apps doesn’t compete with Microsoft Office.
