Don’t be alarmed by the use of the word ‘pop-up’ … I’m not going to start advocating the use of those dreadful things that irritate you while you’re browsing … but actually a different kind of ‘pop-up’ altogether – one that’s entirely more popular… Continue Reading
I always cringe slightly when I see a news story containing the phrase ‘new research suggests’, because I know that over the next five minutes I’m going to be told that whichever fad, gadget or lifestyle choice that was going to help me live forever only six months ago is now just as likely to make my head explode… Continue Reading
