Commercial Photography, Video Production and Internet Marketing for the North West
As members of The Best Of Ormskirk, we were really pleased to be commissioned by Jane Windle to produce a video recording the day’s events. Jane works hard to promote local businesses and we hope the event will get even bigger next year.

Google have increased the size of their email attachments to a new limit of 25 megabytes (MB). This is handy if, like me, you send a lot of photographs around the world. You can find more about this from Google here . Just remember that the recipient also needs to have the ability to receive such large attachments. You could always tell them to get a gmail account when your email comes bouncing back.
Preston enjoyed Caribbean weather for its 35th annual Caribbean Carnival. I was there to take some images for Viva TV who have put together an nice video piece about the carnival which can be viewed here.
I have put some of the images on Flickr which can be viewed here. If you want to see them as a slide show go here.

It probably isn’t the best practice, because it is a source of constant distraction, but I seem to have my Gmail interface open most of the time when I am on line. One of the slight ‘niggles’ that I have with Google Apps is the need to have different browser pages open for different functions; one for mail, one for your calendar and one for docs etc. This minor irritation can be alleviated to some extent by using 2 useful Google Labs features. Before we go into that, I know that you can have your own customised Google Start Page in Apps or iGoogle and I used these for a time, but I usually found myself back at the Gmail Browser Window waiting to be distracted by the next e-mail to arrive.
I know that I am probably a little biased, but I have to say that the Viva TV web site is well worth a subscription, not that it will cost you anything. My bias comes from the fact that Creative Mixed Media have put the site together. However, the content for the site grows weekly so if you are from Lancashire and want to know what is happening this summer look in on the site once in a while. If you are at one of the events coming up, keep an eye out for the Viva TV team and you could end up a TV star yourself.
