We have moved house.
This blog will no longer be kept.
Please come and visit us at www.imaginif.com.au
Blog platforms are so advanced and user friendly that we have opted to run our static web pages through a blog platform.
Check us out and let me know your thoughts.
Change over to our new blog is slow because other commitments have had to come first over the Easter period. Are you ready to see our new corporate blog?
Mystery change at Imaginif
Face lift with Botox
Imaginif is very close to dropping our veil and showing you our new site- a wordpress theme that I will also be offering our static web page through. All of a sudden, our web site has become total blog site. I love it because it means I can do all changes myself and turn the web site into a highly interactive shop floor.
If anyone is in doubt that blogging is an essential business tool then I urge you to take a closer look at what Web 2.0 is and what your customers want. Expensive static web sites are sooooo yesterday, darhling. Make the change today and extend customer service to online conversations (ask me how to do it - I have another surprise up my sleeve for business who wants to corporate blog). Web 2.0 applications are basically the business difference between reading a brochure and having a conversation at point of sale. Corporate blogs are a necessary business tool to capture new customers and retain existing ones. People today expect, and deserve, clear and transparent conversation. We are doing it….hopefully tomorrow.
For all those who link to us in blog rolls, you may like to change the link to http://www.imaginif.com.au/ I anticipate that as of tomorrow we will be bloggy well fully functional at our corporate root address: www.imaginif.com.au. Link now so that you do not miss our unveiling.
And…this is a message to my darling who always reads our blogs - for our first wedding anniversary I want Photoshop CS3.
If anyone is trying to reach my mother re the movement disorders symposium and dinner in Cairns, she has gone to a Dystonic conference in the U.S. She’ll be back on April the 2nd.
I care for others is a special child safety competition just for kids aged between five and twelve.
Please write or draw us a story about how you care for others. Your story has to be no more than 500 words and no less than 100 words. Your drawing can be on A4 or smaller paper and needs to have a title, for example - This is me caring for my friends. Also make sure you write you name, age and date of birth on your picture or story.

This competition closes on the last day of April so you must make sure Mum and Dad post your entry to me before the 30th of April. On the 1st Day of May, 2008, Megan and Paul from Imaginif will read ALL of the stories, look at all of the pictures, and decide which one is the most likely to help other kids also want to help other people. Did you know that caring for others is a GREAT thing to do and can turn you into a super hero without having to have any special powers.

I care for others and I hope that you win. Start thinking about what you are going to write or draw for our I care for others competition.
Mum and Dad - caring for others is a great way to develop empathy in your kids. Kids with empathy are less likely to do the wrong thing, will fight less with their friends and siblings and even have better concentration at school. If you want some more ideas on how to develop empathy in your kids check out, Five ways to empathic children or any of our articles on Emotional Intelligence.
Look out parents in Western Australia. If your kids run wild you run the chance of getting wild over a $200.00 fine.
Parents fined $200 if kids run wild By Amanda O’Brien
In an Australian first, courts in Western Australia will soon be able to order chronically negligent parents to attend parenting classes or face a $200 fine, in a crackdown on anti-social behaviour by children. Read the rest of this entry »
Botox for blogs is what I need this Easter holiday! I will not be posting for a few days because:
Stay safe everyone. Road safety is a child protection issue so please keep our kids safe this Easter.
If you drink and drive, you are more than a bloody idiot, you are a dead loser.
