SHAA'S FAVOURITE SITES

Kent and London - Love the wonderful, classic handmade furniture at great prices. Even better you can get all the furniture painted in any Farrow and Ball colour. Beautiful. Check out the Alphabet Drawers - I want one!

Twitter.com - Ideally suited for small businesses and entrepreneurs. It's a place where you can connect, engage and share information with anyone without the traditional barriers to communication. People on Twitter seem to be far more collaborative. I've genuinely 'met' real business owners and found ways to collaborate - I've even held a Twitter Business Dinner in Manchester last month.

The Next Web - Home to some of the UK's best technology blogs, and sits at the forefront of web-based innovation scene. Great for keeping up to date with world class start-ups and apps  - Tweetdeck was built on there!

Tepilo - I love this unique site as it breaks down the tradition of having to sell your house though an estate agent, and lets you take control of the process while saving money on fees at the same time.

Audible.co.uk - When you're constantly on the go like me, audio books are a great way to listen while on the run. Audible has a vast array of titles, and they are easy to download and transfer to your iPod.

Oka Direct - Online shop for stylish home furnishings, and if you are struggling to pick from their range of products, they have a useful ‘inspirations' section where you can select your style of house and see Oka's suggestions.
