closing the loop on social infectiousness
You may remember that I signed up to be a Bzz Agent a while back to understand how they use word of mouth marketing and indeed how I could use it for my clients. After all, you can't win the raffle without buying a ticket. The Lucozade thing ended up being a bit of aContinue reading "closing the loop on social infectiousness"

stuff and things 07.05.08
While I'm getting my holiday stuff written up, photos uploaded, Spam Show scripted, feeds read etc. here's some stuff and things. I think I swear too much. But apparently not.

And after uploading to slideshare makes me realise we need to change our font from StoneSans to Arial, Helvetica or Verdana! For anyone who was there, thanks forContinue reading "digital wtf?"
the ultimate pitch
Think you've got the next Gorilla inside you? Do you have Heidi's in your sub-consciousness? Or could you bring a fresh take on a global issue? Creativity doesn't always reside in the creative department. And here's your chance to prove it and win a luxurious Cannes trip so you can be demanding, eccentric and quaffContinue reading "the ultimate pitch"
bump @ 19 weeks
Here's the bump from our 19 week scan earlier this week. Amazed at how much they can check, especially the blood flow through the heart. Technology wooh! Even saw his/her tongue moving and swallowing stuff. Taken a liking to mint choc chip ice cream and green wine gums. Can't be mine then π Half wayContinue reading "bump @ 19 weeks"
say my naymz
I've had 2 emails this week from people who I used to work with asking me to join Naymz - a new kind of professional social network. Always a little skeptical, my first thought when the lovely Joanna's invite popped up was, uh oh, here's another Quechup. And then Nik's email popped up. So havingContinue reading "say my naymz"
