Hi there. We use Worldpay. Just a note - they ARE flexible on their rates after you have been with them a while. We reduced ours to 3.3% with just one phone call, so it might be worth you giving that a go

Thanks Paul. We've been in competition on various products before and its all been good, fair competition. This is a new one for me. Appreciate the advice and we'll just roll our sleeves up and carry on. In a sense, this has spurred us on

Thanks. Thats pretty much what I'd thought. Absolutely disgusting though. I mean, look at the competition and try to improve on what they've done but word-for-word copying is low. Anyway, thanks. Going to get on with doing business!

Good presentation. To be honest I didn't know of CouchDB. Looks quite cool. Anyone using it on here and what are your experiences of it?

Are you sure that Linkscape use the submitted organisations bot? I agree that it could just be promotional - as they are only giving access to some of their content (around 10% at my calc) but I'm not sure we're talking about the same bot i

Interesting as it introduces the emotional side into it and re-inforces that the person believes the relationship to be something of value. I often find that the people who owe me money are the closest to me - they ignore the small charges

I agree. His books are a good read and very inspirational. When he started his business, all hippy-like with long hair you can imagine what the (at the time) stuffy establishment thought of him. If anyone on here wants an inspirational read

Hi there. Sorry I can't provide you with a good online resource, but my suggestion would be to find a good teacher local to you. I found meditation via yoga and it has had a profound effect on my mental state - how I deal with crisis, day

When we did a lot of consultancy-based projects we found we often had one of the highest prices for a job. To be completely honest it allowed us to server the customers better, by having higher margins than our competitors. We have done th

I'd love to have a phone number on our site, but our market is global, so wouldn't it look negative to have a UK number, or a US number, for people in other countries? We are based in the UK, but we mainly sell outside of the UK (www.sourc

As someone from the UK, I really hope that Obama really is "the man" to make change stick. I watched his inauguration speech and I hope that the talk about more sustainable energy really does happen. He does seem a kinda cool guy though an

There must be ways for Google, Yahoo etc to tackle this but whenever we've approached them its been a long drawn out process with us having to provide significant proof. We stopped advertising on content networks in the end as it made virt

I'll give you my own perspective with cars. I have owned some great cars and currently own a Jaguar XK8. Often it ties up capital and these cars can depreciate at an alarming rate. I got 'buyers blues' spending that kind of money and the n

I think number 2, whilst an interesting idea, has a lot of potential pitfalls. I wonder if this could be done in a social network sense where the community contacts the community looking for items, rather than via one centralised source. Th

Sometimes things are doing by misguided employees in the false assumption that they are helping. It's not the company that is doing the deed often but an overzealous employee who doesn't think of his/her actions. We experienced this with fo

Even paying for the software and additional technology this looks expensive to me. Amazon S3 price for this would be $20/month for the storage (plus transfer costs of $0.15/gb) so I think it could be cheaper

Then you should look at whether you advertise it as "unlimited". It could look like mis-selling and I think the service looks good so you should possibly look at this EDIT: I'd like to just say that I've downloaded and am using the app an

To be honest, I think that ideas on their own are worthless. Its the sweat that needs to go into building something that is a real business that is the difficult part. I agree that you might think that people would want to clone it, but cl

I fully agree with you. Personally I find it not in good taste. I read a vehement comment from someone on another forum earlier about how it is Jobs duty to let his shareholders know, but frankly if he feels he's up to the job (and the boar
