How easy is it to forget to back up important business or personal files, photos and data?
Why not use an online solution with Mozy an automatic backup service storing your important data on enterprise-grade servers where it can be downloaded from anywhere in the world should the original file be lost or damaged?
Giving you complete piece of mind if your computer or server crashes!

About Mozy

Founded in 2005, Mozy is the world’s most trusted online backup service for consumers and businesses with more than 3 million customers and 70,000 business customers backing up 70 petabytes of information to multiple data centers around the globe.
Mozy is also used by Telstra for their client T-Suite cloud services.

Mozy believes:

You shouldn’t have to think about backup, it should be set up once, and then work automatically.

Your backup files should be encrypted and stored in a secure, remote location that’s only accessible to you – from anywhere.

Your backup system should be smart enough to only back up data that’s not already been backed up, only back up parts of a file that have changed, and be able to back up open and locked files.

AMAZON is out to burn Apple with a full colour tablet that’s less than half the price of the iPad.

The online retail giant today unveiled the Kindle Fire, its long-awaited touchscreen computer which experts believe could challenge Apple’s dominance.

The Kindle Fire runs on Google’s Android software and costs only $US199 – the cheapest iPads retail at $US499 – and will let users download books, magazines, newspapers, videos and music.

It will have access to apps through Amazon’s Android store and, unlike the iPad, doesn’t need to be backed up on a PC.
Instead, it backs up its contents wirelessly on Amazon’s servers.

Click here to learn more!

Order yours below NOW only $199!!!

Vanessa found my Zumba® artwork portfolio on my business website when doing a google search and decided to send me an email.

I emailed Vanessa some business card info, she replied and I sent her a proof that same day, we then decided on the best image to use to promote her business, finalised her design, sent it off to print, then the cards travelled by airmail to Colorado in the USA!

Thanks heaps Vanessa, always great to work with someone so professional and switched on!

I have also designed and delivered business cards for Val of the Da ‘Ville Girlz in Fayetteville, North Carolina!

Design House proudly exporting to the USA, the land of TRUMP!

More artwork here!


Let me tell you, I had no idea what to do for business cards, or how it worked to get one made. I just e-mailed the type of card I needed, and a photo I wanted on the card. I got one e-mail back asking questions, then sent it back, then VOILA the same day I had a lovely, professional business card tailored just for me! I could not believe how quick and wonderful it turned out, I was just amazed! You will not be disappointed in this company, Design House and Jeanette is the BEST!! She even gave me tips on my Facebook page, who does that?? Keep up the great work, you are truely talented and we are all very fortunate to benefit from your artistry!!
