17th June 2009: Public Service Update

Apologies to you all for the lack of recent updates, I've been involved with several non-web oriented pieces of work over the last few weeks, the main one being the Gabem Quality of Service Questionnaire which some of you may have seen and maybe even replied to.

I can understand a certain amount of skepticism about this sort of thing, but questionnaires like this are one of the only ways we can measure your opinion of how we go about things, and hopefully if there are any problems improve anything you're unhappy with. Also it's your opportunity to send in your ideas of new features you'd like to see added.

To remedy the lack of updates, I'm going back to the earlier set up of two blog posts a week, one Wednesday and one Friday, I hope to make one of them an update post (something like this one), and the other something that is more interesting on a general level to anyone who has a hand in the contracting industry. That's the plan anyway.

On a PSA note I've been asked to mention that those of you in London may well be experiencing some conventional mail hiccups on Friday and Saturday due to the industrial action from the Communication Workers Union. This isn't going to affect any payments we make, just the payslips we send out and hopefully just those that normally arrive with you on a Friday.

Thanks very much
