Here’s something I cobbled together for a pitch. Can’t tell you who for obviously. Be interested to know your thoughts. The world is changing. Digital is important today and, in the near future, the “always connected” person will become ubiquitous. Digital will become the de-facto go-to resource for everything.

goodbye geek boy, hello geek girl
Computers, web n stuff. All geeky, spotty boys, right? Wrong. The girls have caught up and overtaken the boys, at least in the US. Read this article in NY Times for interesting insight and more nuggets like this (thanks to Mel Ferguson): …among Web users ages 12 to 17, significantly more girls than boys blogContinueContinue reading “goodbye geek boy, hello geek girl”
one year on
Who better to interview me than my good buddy Spam the Monkey… Spam: You started this blog a year ago this week, tell us why you started?

say hello, wave goodbye
They say change is good and everything is changing for me right now so it’d better be good. Having a child is a momentous occasion in itself and made me realise that I want to work closer to home but still have an exciting, challenging career. So for the first time in about 12 orContinueContinue reading “say hello, wave goodbye”

stuff and things 21.02.08

Without getting too much into bodiy functions, I think it’s fair to say that most chaps I know have a favourite trap in which to do their business. And for a few days, this was stuck on the inside of the door of my “local”, prompting me to add a response. I can’t claim toContinueContinue reading “ideas please”

influential talker or listener?
I found this on Forrester as part of a project I’m doing about how to use social media to influence people who are on the fence (that’s as much as I can say right now due to NDA stuff). This is a grab of a chart in a Forrester study into Wikipedia and it’s useContinueContinue reading “influential talker or listener?”
