My current top 5 favourite web resources

When reviewing my blog and its purpose I realised I wasn't posting very much that you, my readers, may find helpful. I thought I'd kick off my renewed focus on my blog by listing my current top 5 favourite resources on the web:

Number 1 is: FreeDigitalPhotos.net Which is a brilliant resource for royalty free pictures to use on your blog. Just make sure you do put on the acknowledgement!

Number 2 is: Wordle.net You are probably aware of my love of the wordle if you've read this blog before!!!

Number 3 is: MailChimp a free and easy way to create and distribute fabulous email newsletters and marketing.


Number 4 is: a perennially favourite resources of the ever useful Googledocs. Just a fantastic way of working on and sharing documents with your clients whilst maintaining version control. 


An finally this time Number 5 is: 1001FreeFonts.com which is currently feeding my font habit when it comes to finding just the right font for a client.


I intend to make this a regular monthly post so I hope you find it helpful.

This Month's Wordle...

This month's wordle highlights the focus of RRVA I think well even though I've had FTP issues which have restricted my updating of the blog. 

I see Look, Leicester, Interesting, Creative which I think sums things up nicely!!!

 

October's Wordle for A Little Bit of R&R

Here is October's Wordle. I think it highlights what I have been talking about for the last month really well. The words that pop out at me are Think, Women, Business, Twitter and Best. To me these say that RRVA is thinking about women in business, who use twitter and are the best at what they do....or am I just talking about myself???!!! You decide!

Next month I hop that Networking shows up too as I intend to be doing more of it and talking more about it too.

Great visualisation tool

This is today's Wordle for this very blog!!!!

Wordle is a wonderful visualisation tool that I have been using for a little while. It creates beautiful word clouds from any web page or text that you want. The more prominent the word the more often it has been mentioned.

It's a great, visual way to check whether you are on topic and staying focused on what you're blogging about and I think my key words of work, business, VA and people are bang on topic....although I may have to work on not saying 'just' quite so often...and maybe shoes too. I do a wordle every month to make sure I'm just about in the right area which I will be posting on my Facebook fanpage here, if you'd like to check up in me! Please let me know if you think I ramble too much!!

Think I'll check my Twitter stream too now although I'm not entirely sure what that will throw up!!!!
