I dont.

Becasue they are shit.

Anything from apple is just well marketed crap - you pay a premium for the item (phone, I pad, Ipod) and then you have to pay yet more and more money to the apple corp to put anything on the bloody thing!

Android is the way forward with mobile tech.

I have an Android phone and tablet.

but you're completely wrong about Apple i had a 3GS and it was a superb device, but as you say the Iphone 4 was way way overpriced so i moved to Android. I do have a macbook though because nothing can match OSX IMO.

What is the point of this Linkedin shite? It just looks like a site full of middle aged men with boring CVs trying to pretend they're successful.

I don't have a CV.

I asked a serious question though - what is the point of it?

I don't understand. Really I don't. Are you saying people looking to hire view Linkedin for candidates?

You simply do not work in a corporate environment Nat - seriously, you dont.

you Dont own a blackberry and you Dont know what Linkedin is...

If your going to pretend to be a high-flying businesswoman - at least back it up a bit...

I'm an old fashioned businesswoman Rebel, if I want to speak to someone I go and see them or pick up the phone.

Why would I need Linkedin?

I've worked in some extremely LOW profile offices and even they have all spoke about LinkedIN.

I don't use it, but you'd have to be living under a rock not to have heard of it if you've ever been in ANY office.

I suspect Nat is a bloke who works nights in a packing factory or somewhere similar...

Linked In is shite though. Wading through a pile of crap and dubious egos to find any useful info or contacts worth having....despite which social media is now apparently a "must" for any marketing mix.
It's just a load of adverts and job sites.
Most of it is populated by Marketing and Recruitment companies, as Natasha will no doubt tell you in her professional capacity.

But wtf would everybody do without Facebook and twatter?

Natasha wouldn't know as neither her nor her "busy" "secret" PR company do not advertise their products as its all word of mouth - and yet anyone I know , and I know quite a few people in industry have never heard of Natasha or Whittam Plc (or whatever name it uses with Whittam in it!).

I don't know what you mean by whistled ?
Also, tell us what living life to the full means.

You know what whistling is. I walk down the street whistling all the time, it brings out the best in people. They want to whistle back and have a chat. Life is all about meeting people and experiencing new things.

Living life to the full is about making the most of your short time on this planet. What are you experiencing staying in your bedroom playing XBox?

While some of you are play FIFA 67 I'm out experiencing the delights of Preston Docks, Ribbleton & surrounding ares. Life is a rich tapestry you know.

I wish I was you!

My pretend Best mate lives in Ribbleton, do you know him?

He's called Bob, his nickname's Fannyface.

He's got a nose that goes inwards.

I've met him twice, but I know his pretend sister Fanny Fannyface better.
