It apparently uses Yahoo to power its searches, which means ultimately it’ll be Microsoft’s Bing soon enough, but the difference is their claim that a proportion of their advertising revenue goes towards saving the rainforests. On their site they say, “Each web search saves about 2 m² of rainforest for free. We already protected 128,504,979 m². Worth a try perhaps? http://ecosia.org/

Ok – so there’s more than a little self interest in me writing about this, mainly because I’m the marketing manager tasked with promoting a domestic voltage optimisation product in the UK. However, even if I weren’t working in the industry, I think the green credentials of the technology are such that it should be more widely known about and considered as a viable green technology.
I’ve created a LinkedIn group here: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?mostPopular=&gid=3216180 which I’m hoping will be one of many touch points for the general public to find out more about voltage optimisation.
To put it concisely, voltage optimisation is a proven scientific approach to lowering and regulating incoming voltage into a property, and in doing so the household will use less electricity, which will cost less, result in fewer CO2 emissions and potentially prolong the useful life of domestic appliances.

Not to everyone’s taste – but there are some great jokes on here! Be warned though, it’s very likely the jokes will offend!

Had this sent through as a text the other day…
I was in Tesco the other day looking for Oxo cubes. I saw beef, chicken, lamb, vegetable and England!
So, I said to the shop assistant, “What is the England?”
And he replied, “It’s new out… it’s the laughing stock!”
Obviously a bit topical with the football, but quite funny nonetheless…

There’s a handy web site called Chester Cycle City that I’ve come across, which also includes printable leaflets of the different routes that surround the city. These are available here: http://www.chestercyclecity.org/?cat=103

I’m really liking the Moneysupermarket.com voucher web site for teaming up with Cruise, Chester to give away 2-4-1 admission every Friday. All you need to do is print the voucher off from this page: http://www.moneysupermarket.com/vouchers/store/cruise-nightclub-chester/1231/1/ and take it along with you. Valid from 8pm till 1am for 2 people, excluding race days and only on Fridays. Not a bad deal though!
