Over the last few days I’ve been looking at presentations about social media that I did in early 2017. It seems (quite a lot has happened since then) that on the agenda were loads of statistics about social media usage, plenty about the ethics of online behaviour and a huge amount about safer internet use. …
Yet again the “Postbox tech ladies” (as we were described last year) are so proud to be involved with St Albans Postboxes this festive season. After the year we’ve had, being part of the 2020 Christmas trail and watching it all string together (pun intended) feels that little bit more special. Whether you happen to …
This weekend, my daughter (aged 15) received her first death threat on Twitter. She’d had, in that user’s opinion, had the audacity to comment on a video saying it was “Absolutely disgraceful” that Aguero had intentially grabbed the linesman (lady) by the neck. Nov 6th: Edit – this video has now been removed from YouTube …
Over the last few months we’ve been working hard on a new website for the FreeFrom Food Awards. As the project grew from a ‘basic move to WordPress’ to the site with the greatest number of forms and integrations we’ve ever done, we realised that we were getting (even more) emotionally invested in their work, …

The WP GDPR Compliance Plugin With over 100,000 …
There is plenty of talk at the moment about when Gutenberg is coming. For those of you who’ve managed to miss this monumental WordPress news, Gutenberg is WordPress 5.0 and it’s promising a us whole new editing experience. Possibly a downside is all that I can think of when people say “Gutenberg is Coming” is …
First of all, let us just say, we’re not lawyers. If you do want to make sure that you are absolutely totally and even more absolutely GDPR compliant, you need to employ a lawyer. About us DigitalJen is a Digital Media agency that helps small and medium size businesses (and that includes bloggers) get what …
One of the things we cover on my kitchen table Facebook courses is privacy. We talk about keeping your personal profile separate from your business page. We talk about how you choose your friends on Facebook. If we need to, we’ll go into your privacy settings with you to make sure you’re comfortable with …
Last week saw the first of the St Albans Businesses WooHoo achievement evenings – an event for local businesses to come together and be proud of what they’ve achieved and to raise some much needed funds for the wonderful charity HomeStart Unlike any other ‘awards’ night, the categories were flexible, nominations were from other local …
Finally – the DigitalJen blog! Except I’ve not called it a blog, I’ve called it “Our Stories”.
