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.
Since returning from overseas I have been gradually building up my TinTin collection (as mentioned here). Turns out it was cheaper to buy them all new than it was to get them on EBay (after taking shipping into account). I keep hearing rumours of a TinTin movie coming out, but nothing concrete yet. I can’t wait for a proper movie to come out, but I do worry it will start a TinTin hair style...
Boy am I glad to hear that the FoxPro Show is still on the air. I spent last night dreaming up ideas for how I was going to get the entire Fox community to pressure (ie ‘encourage’) Andrew MacNeill to get it back on line. Turns out it was a small accident, but I’m glad it happened because it prompted me to write the following note… It occurred to me that I had seen...

We’ll post details on schedules shortly.
After posting the presentation from Sydney VFP UG last week I was alerted to the fact that the resize workaround doesn’t work for VFP8 (or earlier) since it relies on VFP9 Anchors.
The updated presentation is here
Specifically this topic (which is an improvement on the original workaround anyway)
Sample code is here
There’s been a few discussions lately about a Solution Explorer for VFP (see Craig Boyd’s mention here for example). I note that Craig Bernston is working on one and there are probably others out there.Here’s a link to a presentation Scott Scovell gave at OzFox last year and then re-presented at the Sydney VFP UG this month.Scott is planning to open it up to the community later...
We had a great meeting last night, and next month is looking awesome too
Links and details of presentations are on the site
And the OzFoxRox! podcast idea got a very enthusiastic response
A few interesting links doing the rounds
Joel on Software: especially
37signals: especially
Andrew MacNeill comments on it here
Every so often a new person turns up at the Sydney VFP User Group and asks where they can find information on a VFP related item. Usually I send them an email afterwards with a list of VFP resources. But to save time I’ve compiled a list here. There are many others ofcourse, but these are some main ones to get started with.[Update: Added The FoxPro Show in the podcast section]Microsoft VFP...
The next UG meeting (27 July 2005) is looking good – see UG site here and UG blog here
