This week I’m off to IBC in Amsterdam with Shiny Red Client Aprico. My background is entrenched in the digital video world and after a year of working in my current role, it’s actually a nice and refreshing change to get back into the TV field. However, the worlds of web and TV have been [...]
Last year, I wrote this post on the Shiny Red blog about Blog Action Day, an initiative that looks to harness the wider voice of the blogosphere to raise awareness about one particular issue. Last year it was the environment. This year, they’ve started the campaign to recruit bloggers already and will be looking to [...]
This week I popped along to the Summer London Blogger Meetup. In terms of numbers and meeting new folk it was the best yet. I still think that short presentations or even a 20-minute debate style showcase add some niceness and interest to the whole shebang, but this week’s was purely social and that’s fine by me. [...]
Back in May 2006, my life was consumed by one of the most exciting projects I’ve had the pleasure to work on - The UK launch of the Slingbox. It was brought to market in time for the World Cup (just), and the reactions we got from a media point of view were almost exclusively [...]

Ah surveys, one of the oldest weapons in the PR arsenal. And the media love them too – if you can find a headline to tickle their fancy. After a quick search, I’ve found out that 19% of millionaires don’t feel wealthy, 8% of drivers have had an accident on the school-run and that Germans [...]
I’ve blogged elsewhere about the bad taste that email is leaving in our collective mouths, so I find it odd that Brand Republic is conceding so easily the news that 150bn emails are deleted without being read every year.
Yes spam emails are better for the environment than direct marketing (DM), and there are more laborious [...]
Rumours abound that several ex-Google employees are working on a social search service dubbed the mechanical zoo. With the explosion of social content hitting the web in the form of microblogging, photosharing, and mass communication through social networks, one significant challenge has been tracking the conversations taking place on these platforms.
