I recently started a private blog, writing about things involved with running Software Testing Club and working towards my personal aims of running a flexible and sustainable business. The highs, the lows, nitty gritty details that I normally wouldn’t write about online. Perhaps an odd bit of Rosie humour in there too! It’s not something [...]
About Rosie Sherry
Customer Service That Matches The Brand
For Software Testing Club stuff I use MailChimp. And the Chimp is so lovely, almost makes my heart melt. I wish I had one of my own! But seriously, in a non-serious kind of way it’s like I have been building up this relationship with a non existing chimp. Everytime I login into MailChimp (sometimes [...]
5 Reasons Why Google+ is Better Than Twitter
For the record: I still love Twitter, but in 2012 I’m giving G+ more of my time. Follow me @rosiesherry or add me to your Circle on Google+. 1. The search baby! The search on Twitter winds me up to the moon and back. It’s so frustratingly hard to find previous tweets. This is not [...]
My online plans for 2012
Nope, this is not a new years resolution. Just my ideas at this stage which are likely to adapt and evolve. Blog more on Rosie Land I’ve been a bit slack here for the past couple of years. Part of it has been personal reasons. Other parts has been the ‘confusion in my head’ of [...]

I’d argue that’s causing a new age of blogging: one that is free of commercial concerns. How many of you [...]

The Future of Education

Some valid points are highlighted on how things are changing with the likes of MIT and London School of Economics offering (or planning on offering) online content, education, discussions, certificates, etc and all free or at a [...]

Would be great to see more of this in the UK. Coding For Kids is making some community progress with this.
What makes a community?
If you go to seek advice from the ‘experts’ about building a community, they will probably reel off a list of buzzwords and necessities. Oh, you must have a ________. Fill in the blank space with social network / blog / Twitter / ecommerce / marketing plan / advertising / PR / business plan [...]
Oh, what a horrible bug!
I got an email marketing message the other day. It was from a kids ‘educational’ games website that my boys are signed up to. We’ve been signed up for a few months and I think this is probably the first marketing email we’ve had from them. It started out saying: “Dear xxxxxxx” Where ‘xxxxxxx’ was [...]
