Office related sites

I feel that, in order to comment on particular sites, it is necessary to visit them regularly to examine content etc.  Unfortunately, as yet I have not found the time to do this on every site mentioned and, therefore, I do not comment on those I have not experienced.

With this in mind, if you have any favourite sites that you have found interesting or helpful please share it with the rest of us - the more we can include the better for everybody.  Alternatively, if you have any comments to make on those already listed let us know, other viewpoints are always of interest and it will save me a bit of work!   Email us on june@hintsandthings.co.uk with any suggestions, comments etc. we would love to hear from you.
