Joomla frequently release security updates to ensure that hackers and other nasties have a smaller chance of affecting sites built with it.

A logo, whether good or bad, represents your company on many levels.

For a start, without a logo it would be impossible for your customers to identify you from anyone else.

Everyone has strong opinions regarding their favourite brand. These opinions are more often than not emotional than rational. With some brands (for example Nike and Coca-Cola) customers form an emotional attachment, often to the point that they disregard better products for the ones with higher visibility and brand recognition.

Have you ever been to a networking meeting and been given a business card printed on a home printer, on flimsy card, with perforations around the edge? What was the first thought that crossed your mind? This person is new in business and possibly a bit "green"? This person is a cheapskate (be honest!)?
 
A business card isn't just a piece of card with your information on it, it is a highly important document which speaks volumes about you, your company and even your values.

Lately you may have noticed more and more funny looking black and white squares popping up on posters, adverts and even business cards? 

These little squares are called QR (Quick Response) codes. They have been around since the mid 1990's when they were created by Toyota as ID tags for their car parts. Faster and more accurate than barcodes (and from a design point of view, somewhat more attractive!) they have begun to creep into a whole variety of new uses. However with the increase of smart phone ownership, and bar code reading apps, they have really come into their own. 

According to recently released figures from Mobio, from July to December last year, QR code scanning grew by a massive 1200%.
