For me, the boring bit of IM comes when a website needs a total update. I use ClassiPress on two sites. One I updated months ago, but one I did yesterday. It's a big task - the latest versions of Wordpress don't work with the older versions of CP, so the site had lain unmaintained for a couple of years. I was also changing web hosts so the site needed to be moved.

The site had long since stopped sending out annual payment reminders and last year I was too ill to send them manually....

I don't usually make New Year's Resolutions - I'm old enough to know that I rarely keep them!

This year I've made just a few around my IM business.

The year has already got off to a good start. My friend who runs the bridge site for which I'm an affiliate has started a brand new site aimed at bridge players in the USA.

I use online backup. I asked on this forum before I installed it which service people recommend. The most recommended ones...

An innocent sounding topic - that hit me like bolt on Sunday (I know - how sad to be thinking of work on a Sunday).

You know how it is - once you've had that "great idea" you just have to do it - right now.
