7 ways to impress your loved one

I heart U

Valentine's Day can be an expensive, awkward time of year. Expectation levels run high and more often than not most us tend to leave it to the last minute to try and make dinner reservations or pick out some flowers. Not this year tech-lovers.

Here's how technology can help woo that special someone in your life

No. 1 Make them smile

Have a little fun and tell someone you like them with a personalised and fun Valentines E-cards

The above site has a great selection, from singing chocolates, to banjo playing bunny's - it's a guaranteed to way to make them smile....but don't stop there!

No. 2 Say it with flowers

.......no seriously! Impress the person you love by picking a flower with a meaning, not the last minute bunches from Coles.

For example: Red Camellia's mean You're a flame in my heart

Don't believe me, have a look at this site and find a flower which will sum up your sentiments


No. 3 Head & shoulders above the rest

Call the office and ask a friend or the receptionist if they could do you a favour and tie a fun or romantic bunch of balloons, to your partner PC, it'll make them smile, blush and be the envy of the office. Try Party People for some interesting options.


No. 4 Make it personal

You don't have long, so you better get cracking. Make a gift memorable by adding a personal picture, image or phrase on it. These days you can make anything from a mouse mat, stubby holder or make up bag to a Picture book, where you can highlight your relationship so far..


No. 5 You can be a poet even if you don't know it

Sometimes finding the right words can be agonizing. It seems to take hours to come up with just a few lines to say I love you! Well help is at hand this year. I hit the net and found a classic from this website full of phrases.

No. 15 "Your love is like the sun coming out of the clouds, it warms my soul"


No. 6 Let music say it all

Mix Tape

It's pretty old fashioned but there's still something special saying it with music, the mix tape has evolved to an MP3 file, but the sentiments are the same. So, set the mood this Valentine’s Day with the perfect collection of love songs. You can download the classics melodies free from this legal music site.


No. 7 Be big, be bold, be adventurous !

Make it a day to remember, by doing an unusual activity. You'll get to spend time together, which shows you care and instead of putting on the calories from all those chocolates, you can burn them off doing something adventurous, like a day's circus fun..... just don't let them fall, unless its head over heels in love with you
