iJustine asks the music types about the hot topics in Austin from a week earlier. With Hi Lar Ee Us results!
As I mentioned at the time, the shift in culture on the last evening of Interactive and the eve of Music was quite dramatic. I’m not sure I could have dealt conceptually with doing the [...]
Another unfocused ramble about some ideas I can’t shift from my head…
One of the things I have to think about is how people or organisations who either can’t blog or don’t want to blog can engage with the blogging world. Say, for example, your company just can’t do the human voice thing without sounding really [...]
A while back there was much noise being made about Birmingham being the first city in the country with city-wide WiFi Internet access. This was be supplied by BT Openzone with free access to essential council services and entertainment guides being provided by Birmingham FIZ. In this last year I’ve been working in the city [...]
Licence to Roam. Bumped into Rachel Clarke every so briefly at SXSWi and she was a good-un (and from Dudley, but I’ll let that slide as she escaped). Her blog has a few panel transcriptions that put my random key-klunkings to shame.
One of probably many moments from SXSWi I wish I was at, saved by the magic of online video.
Wish I’d seen this before writing a mildly sarcastic post about Thought Leaders. One cannot compete with The Mann.

It amused me greatly as it really doesn’t mean anything more than someone who has ideas which some other people listen to and in the online world where everyone is famous for 15 people such things are incredibly [...]
I really have to stop trying to do TV…
Thanks to Chris for salvaging something out of my nonsense!
At SXSWi, the new Twitter is…Twitter. This is all true. It was completely integral to the success of the event. I can’t imagine getting nearly as much out of it now the geeks have been replaced by music-types. via Dan Light.
SXSWi 2008: We, the people. Great report by Daniel Light with many observations I’d agree with including this. Not the most revolutionary but it jumped out.:
Where Facebook holds a mirror up to my life and reflects all the relationships that are and once were through the simple binary of ‘friendship’, almost everybody I know on [...]
Since I became an internet superstar (and, yes, I’m taking the piss here) I get asked for advice a fair bit. I’m generally happy to do this but I’m reaching saturation point. And I’m also aware that more often that not I’m not the best person to offer the advice.
Post-SXSWi we now have at [...]
