Blog 1 Year Old!

Today, the Reverb Studios Blog is exactly one year old (heres my first post!) and its been a great year business wise for me. Whether the blog is responsible in some way or not I’m not sure but Blogging has been a great excercise for me in a lot of ways and its definetly brought more visitors to my site and increased my profile on the net. As of now, I’ve posted about 160 Articles in 13 different Categories and received about 180 comments from various visitors. I regularly get between 50 to 100 unique visits a day compared to about 5 to 20 this time last year!

Thanks to all Visitors and Contributors,

Leon.

Internet Use by the Old Aged

A recent report from scientests at UCLA suggests that internet browsing by the middle to old aged can significantly stimulate and improve brain function and reduce the risk of dementia. Most clients I meet in this age range miss no opportunity to tell me how useless they are with computers and how scared they get when anywhere near a pc but theres no evidence to suggest that these people are any less capable than the rest of us when it comes to learning how to use new technology so get surfing and stop being scared oldies!
