Well my meeting today sucked big time. The guy we met simply wasn't interested and came across to us that he already has his own plans and we would only interfere with them.
What really bugged me was he ran a w3c and bobby check on our main page and came back gloating that it failed the tests and yet his site failed on exactly the same thing. I have a text only version on there for that very reason.
The design of the clear blue media main page was such that I couldn't get it to pass so opted for a text only version as well.
Anyway, I left there really miffed by this so I came home tonight and have been building a new front page which is Grade AAA, W3C html 4.01, W3C CSS and WAI-AA WCAG 1.0 compliant. I would love some feedback if anyone does actually read this.
This is the new Clear Blue Media front page. no links work but the css behind it is pretty intense. If anyone does read this and they look at the site please give me some Feedback.

Whoooa long delay before this update :)
I've got a big meeting with the RDA (Regional Development Agency) tomorrow so I've been finsihing off gathering all the latest research I could find for this project I'm working on.
I added 1 site this week called Buy Spanish Property. It's a remake of Suncoast Properties but it's had the code and text spruced up. It still looks the same but the coding has been altered to make it more search engine friendly.
Google adwords has suspended my account at this time because I put the adwords on a clients web site (while he was sat next to me) to show him what ad words would come up. Because he applied and got accepted they suspended me because my code was still on his site. Grrrr, this sucks big time :(
I'm getting a lot of emails about my Ghosts of Berry Pomeroy section. Please keep the emails and photos coming in, I'm getting some really interesting stuff!! As always if you'd like me to come down there with you just Contact me.
I'll hopefully post on here tomorrow the results of the meeting.
