Blog off?

To blog or not to blog. That is the question. I am fast approaching 50 and to be honest the speed at which today's technology moves leaves me feeling like I am standing in some huge revolving door.

I understand why I write this blog. Hopefully I write something which people may find interesting but also it is to help promote my company Interline's website. I know that if I type "minicab in Pinner" or "chauffeur driven luxury from Heathrow to Harrow" or " your Interline courier will move swiftly between Canary Wharf, W1 and the 02" then if you type those words when searching for a service our website has more chance of showing up on Google or Bing or Yahoo.

Now people are asking me do I twitter or facebook? I might if I knew what they were. Should I face my twit? What the heck is twitter or facebook and would you use them to book a minicab from Harrow to Watford, a chauffeur from Eastcote to Heathrow or a courier from Wembley to W1 (do you see what I did there?)

Are you reading this thinking TWITTER, FACEBOOK that's so last week!! So if you want to find a minicab in Harrow or Kingsbury or you land at Heathrow and realise you have not ordered a taxi what do you do?

Fashion magazines are always telling us that "taupe is the new black" but every girl knows that black will always be "the" colour. The thing is what will be "black" in the communications/networking world. We are currently researching a new system which will allow you to text for a minicab from anywhere. From Trinity in Harrow, Area in Watford or Selfridges in the West End and we will text you back telling you how long your minicab will be, what the make of car and registration is, even the name of the driver. We will then text you when your car has arrived. So it would seem that for now the mobile phone will be King. Pretty soon we will probably be able to find where you are waiting, whether it be Pinner, Kingsbury, Ealing or Kathmandu because you will press a button on your mobile allowing us to track your phone and you. Your parcel to E14 or EC3 will be instantly traceable and you will have a photograph of your chauffeur sent to your mobile so you will recognise him when he meets you at Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Luton or St Pancras.

As I still get excited using two tin cans and a piece of string I will not pretend to understand how all this will work but rest assured whatever method you use to contact Interline and book your chauffeur driven Mercedes from Harrow to the O2, your minicab from Kenton Lane to Heathrow Terminal 4 or your courier from the Kingsbury Trading Estate to Centennial Park Elstree (see I'm doing it again) you will receive the one thing that will always remain the same with Interline. Excellent service.
