Just because I ain't a-bloggin' doesn't mean I ain't here. 
I'm deep, deep—up to my arms, deep in code. And helping a new customer with getting to grips with her new school website.
I've discovered a perfect way to keep my errant and novice newbies in check. I am 'The Big Brother Texter." Which means I watch what they're upto, by receiving the email notifications of new news items, changed messages or new thumbnails, et al. When I see that they could have done it better/quicker—this way or that, I send them a text message to their mobile phone.
I used to send an email. But, it could be hours or even days before they read their email. Text messages make them jump :-) And arrive, sometimes only a minute or two after they've completed the operation I'm helping them with.
It's a great way to tutor the finer, stylistic details. Though, I've been told it's a bit of a shock initially. They think they're working on the site in isolation, when in reality, I'm 'nearly' sitting over their shoulder.
