Write for a reader, not a recruiter

June 9th, 2009 — 05:56 pm

I hope that you appreciate the irony in this post as it’s meant, because it is meant.

I’m sat on the train to London and East Midland Mainline don’t provide wi-fi or power points. And I’m sat in the quiet coach. None of these things really work with me, I’m no good without something to keep me occupied (interwebz), my phone is dying so I’m a bit angry and I can’t make any noise because I got in the wrong carriage and I have a weird ‘Final Destination’ thing about changing seats.

Sony Ericsson’s GreenHeart

June 4th, 2009 — 09:21 am

[DISCLAIMER: CLIENT]

I’m in London this morning to help Sony Ericsson launch its GreenHeart initiative via a Kyte webcast – I thought I’d share my morning with you all; frantic, hot, geeky.

Here’s the player, and if you’re into mobile phones, green technology or the environment then you can embed the channel into your own blog (code below the viewer).

The webcast will be at 1pm (GMT) today and it’ll be chaired by Ernest Doku from Omio.com and because we’ll be streaming it via Kyte, you can ask questions live (a good opportunity to talk to some of the top people at Sony Ericsson, ChemSec and Telefonica).

 

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.kyte.tv/js/kyte.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var kyteplayer = new Kyte.Player("channels/308544", { p:622 });

Spleen-tearingly funny videos

May 14th, 2009 — 07:49 pm

As some of you might have noticed, I’ve been a bit tense these last few days – a combination of deadlines, gym times and no-nap times.

So I thought I’d share three videos that, regardless of how foul a mood I’m in or how nasty I’m being to the ever tolerant (and always lovely) Paul Crouch, always manage to put a Cheshire cat grin on my pudgy little face…

Nottingham Media Camp #update#

May 9th, 2009 — 11:28 am

So, here I am, sat behind a lovely little desk in a building in the Lace Market (Lace Market House, genius!) giving people badges and smiles and trying to minimise my sarcasm (some people don’t ‘get’ my sarcasm immediately!).

I sat in the first session of the day this morning, Susi O’Neill spoke about how the internet is affecting the music industry and hit some really great points – she’s completing an Masters in it, so she should know!

I did shoot a video, but my fingers are too fat to press record properly, so it fell off after about 12 seconds. I promise I’ll shoot another interview with her this afternoon though, but until then you’ll have to be content with Kutiman…

Roll up, roll up: Media Camp Nottingham

May 8th, 2009 — 12:37 pm

You heard me, Media Camp Nottingham is happening. Tomorrow. OK, I realise that I’m writing this a bit late, but you should turn up, rock out and learn a bit, yeah?

For those of you that don’t know, Media Camp is ace (‘mad-props’ to Chris Hambly). It’s an un-conference were loads of social interweb folks get together to share stories, knowledge and haircuts. OK, well not haircuts. I’ll be serious now, promise…
