Just my view on the world :)
The MonkeyPC
Wow what a eventful month!
Jul 30th
This month has been really busy for me. With a unfortunate and worrying illness in the family and even more progress with my business.
I have a business advisor and been to many seminars back in London about starting up and I have a real roadmap for these 3 weeks. To finish market research, finalise my business plan and submit to banks. The main priorities after then will be structuring and sorting the premises with the council. The website really needs tweaking because it wasn’t really structured to handle a store online and offline! In reality it was created before any plans were firm and this was a mistake. One that won’t be made again. I’m drawing up a website plan too.
Work has become somewhat ridiculous but I will speak about that when I become detached from that company (then I can’t be fired) 
Must get to sleep now… got work tomorrow again. Not long left till I leave Oxford for a bit.
Btw, If you live, study or work in Oxford please fill out this quick questionnaire for me. It will help me with my market research and you will be entitled to a money off voucher when we launch.
Peace!
Me & The MonkeyPC
Jul 11th
I can’t think of what to write about really. I will be blogging about The MonkeyPC later on in this week or month. I have lot of exciting things planned regarding that and have had some feedback which has come in handy.
I’m still working hard at Sainsburys in Oxford. I only have a few weeks left until I leave.
Other then that not much has changed personally. However, on the business side things are almost ready. The draft business plan is complete. The financials are a little weak and need a second going over.
There is still a lot to do but progress is coming on.
Lovin’ the weather hope it stays sunny.. stay tuned for more updates
What I’ve been doing…

Apple Elf renamed to The MonkeyPC
May 2nd
A lot has happened since I last wrote a blog post here (I will go into that in another post) but the topic of this post is the new webhost I am committed to starting.
Apple Elf has plans laid out as far back as 2007. However after several setbacks we haven’t been able to launch. These range from disappearing designers to financial issues. Recently I decided to ditch the Apple Elf name, for The MonkeyPC. Along with it comes changes in plans. The website coding itself is coming along very well. Unfortunately, we didn’t hit Monday 12th April as our opening date.
Speaking of services I have decided to add several more that I have thought may be useful. There is still so much more work to do that a launch date cannot be properly given. Development is continuing.
Personally I am fine. Just been really busy these few months and I intend to explain all that soon
Apple Elf Update
Jul 31st
In regards to launch. Somewhere around the end of August we expect our services to be available to the public. We will only open up when we are 100% ready and everything works as it should. Speaking of the design we expect to have the designer starting in just over a weeks time as scheduled. A lot of things are planned including a logo update. The current logo was more of a prototype when I thought of the initial idea. Now it’s almost all together we are just awaiting on the design front and a few software licensing considerations.
Service wise we plan to launch a service that will be discounted to our clients and available at full rate to people who don’t have our hosting. It’s a monthly charge and we hope our clients will find it useful. I really would love to spill the beans on this as I think it’s amazing!
Apple Elf has been designed to make owning your own piece of the web easier. Through using powerful web tools we can help you achieve this goal and hopefully you will be impressed with the results.
My next update will be the design preview and a few other bits and pieces.
If you want to be emailed when we launch send a email to admin[at]appleelf[dot]com
Working Sunday
Jul 19th
I’ve got back from work after a 12pm – 10pm shift. For those of you not familiar with my job it consists of serving you drinks, taking your food out and you always being right. Yes, The “guest” always being right. It’s been a fairly busy day. It’s probably me maturing but I am seeing a lot more attractive ladies around at work 
Nothing much to report. Except that I have a lot to do. I plan to launch Apple Elf by the end of August despite a few setbacks and will keep this updated. I’ve received some infraction points at digitalpoint forums for what seems like nothing again. I remember seeing a thread where the title was you can have a ban too. Clearly some people love mod control or have huuuuge ego problems.
The debate on the unlimited webhosting debate saga continues this time at freewebspace.net forums but you always get people supporting these types of hosting plans there. At least there are a few voices of common sense left in both the industry and on that particular forum.
That’s it!.. Till next time sleep well and don’t have nightmares
Apple Elf – Development Part one of many!
Jun 14th
I’m not going to say much about anything now except that things are coming along nicely. However we need to know what would make the most complete hosting experience in your own opinion.
This is where Apple Elf needs your help. Just make a post here about what you believe a webhost company should provide you.
In return you will receive one month free hosting on any plan when we launch.
Thank you for your assistance
Whats happening?
Jun 13th
Well, I’ve been concentrating on my online projects a lot over the past few weeks. In particular Ferrari Fans and Apple Elf. Ferrari Fans needs a push start and I have been frantically been trying to get bits ready to launch Apple Elf. Progress is being made.
The current logo looks like this
I am back now and will be updating this more frequently. Oh and my parents decided to buy a kitten and name him Smokey. He’s cute but it’s tough to do anything with him around.
At the time of writing this post I was listening to nothing! It’s currently 2:49am.
Holiday post
Jan 17th
I have been on Holiday a few weeks now. The highlight of which was Christmas and New year.
A lot has happened. I suppose. I finished my first semester at university and recent public affairs have amused me
My first semester at university went well I guess.. just got to wait for the results. The coursework I have to do over the holidays is in progress but going slowly. I keep getting distracted (by posting on this blog for example!). I can’t wait for semester two. So just counting down the days till I am back in Oxford!
Earlier on I was checking out the new Ferrari F1 car. To be honest the new F1 rules have made the cars look ugly!
I plan to launch Apple Elf webhosting over the summer!
Till the next update goodbye
