Blinks.org.uk our Free Links Directory continues to go from strength to strength and is slowly but surely building up a lot of listings – since the registration proceedures and members areas of Blinks.org.uk and Art-Thing are essentially the same this is great news.
Recently we’ve been working on www.science-fictions.co.uk – which as you may well guess is a Science Fiction and Fantasy Online Bookshop – and the engine of which will form another important part of Art-Thing.

After a lot of diversions we should get back on track with Art Thing. Workload over the past year has been crazy, but now with a bit of breathing space we have had time to finnish our diversionary project - http://www.blinks.org.uk – our new online business directory
Blinks is bulit on the fabulous CakePHP framework, and is a bit of a testbed for all kinds of bits and pieces particularly relating to areas like Caching to speed up responsiveness. This is particularly important right now while the application is being tested and it is sitting on a fairly low spec shared server.

And we are looking for businesses and services based in the UK to sign up and give it a whirl. The site is still in Beta at the moment while we find bugs and make tweaks but if you sign up now your listing will always be top of the list in your category. The business directory could be of interest to web designers and people interested in SEO as you can mange multiple businesses from a single account.
