Introducing Simply Remind Me Pro
Sunday, 10th November, 2024
Simply Remind Me was designed for people to send themselves reminders - hence the name, Simply Remind Me.
Over the years, I’ve witnessed many businesses who are using Simply Remind Me to send reminders to their customers. Everything from dentist surgeries reminding their patients of their upcoming appointments, to Government embassies reminding tourists when their visa expires!
Whilst this works (and are novel uses of the app) it’s not what it was designed for.
Introducing... Simply Remind Me Pro. Built for businesses and dedicated users.
You are invited to the next generation of Simply Remind Me
Monday, 7th October, 2024
Back in October 2023, I teased a complete re-imagination of the “event” in Simply Remind Me.
An event is anything you want to be reminded about… a birthday, anniversary or doctor’s appointment. A reminder is an individual email, text or voice call related to an event.
Almost a year later, and I’m ready to invite people to the new event/reminder experience in Simply Remind Me.

Re-imagineering the event in Simply Remind Me
Tuesday, 10th October, 2023
Rapidly approaching 500 new users this year, my free email and simple text message reminder app - Simply Remind Me - is earning a loyal following in the world.
In July, I had 131 new users that have signed up in 2023. As of today, I've trebled this to 466.
All of these new users are bringing great suggestions and feedback - particularly from a competitor's service that stopped working earlier this year.
I'm rolling all this feedback and suggestions into a complete overhaul of the "event experience" which I'm excited to preview today.

It seems like everyone is suffering from rising costs and unfortunately my applications are no exception. My payment gateway is raising their fees for both UK and international cards, which means I’ve had to rethink my pricing for Simply Remind Me – my free email reminder app and simple text and call reminder app.

Manage software package upgrades on Linux with NodeBeagle
Friday, 21st January, 2022
Updates for devices running the Linux operating system come in the form of packages. Using the Linux system’s package manager, you install new packages and upgrade them as new versions are released.
Now sure you can log onto each Linux device and run apt update && apt upgrade, or dnf update, depending on your distribution. But what if you have several – even hundreds – of devices to keep updated? And how do you know what new updates are available?
Happy New Year! Welcome, 2022...
Friday, 31st December, 2021
2021 started with much hope of vaccines to bring an end to the COVID-19 pandemic, alas it wasn’t enough.
A year – and three vaccines later – and there is no end yet in sight. Although hospitalisations are steady, despite the rising number of cases of the Omicron variant, so maybe there is a glimmer of hope for 2022.
As I reflect on the last year, I’ve made some achievements I’m proud of – both personal and professional.
