“How would you use flash on an iPad or iPhone though? Anything Flash that...”
– One of the best arguments against flash on the iPhone/iPad yet (apart from the fact that flash is not a web standard, not open source, slow and buggy on the Mac and is fast becoming obselete)

Make sure your website is hosted properly
Our website service is usually completely bespoke, and completely controlled by ourselves. We design the website, work out the site structure and the look and feel of it, sometimes we even create corporate identities. We then build the website, coding the theme by hand, and using tried and tested software packages for the CMS. We also set up Google Apps for email, and host the websites ourselves....
