Three for three – my first meme.

Well it turns out being tagged in a meme is like waiting for a bus – nothing for ages, then two come along at once (thanks to Mel and Tom) following Jed Hallam’s invention of the three for three meme. So here we go with my contribution.

Get dapper

Spotted the Gieves & Hawkes AW08 suits on a recent iluwfashion post, and they’re simply gorgeous! They make the traditionally “older” three-piece and double-breasted styles look young, fresh and totally wearable by someone in their late 20s (uhh, me). The suggestion that students returning to campus should nip out and buy one is a little tongue [...]

The science of sleep

Here’s a little something I’m working on. I’ve always been intruiged by dreams, where they come from, why we remember certain things, and how they can be encapsulated in an image. So I decided to see what dreams people talked about online. It’s a work in progress and certainly needs some work done on the design, but [...]

Online brands cosy up to high-flyers

For the third year running, Aston Martin has been taken the honour of coming top in CoolBrand’s annual list of the coolest brands in the UK, published today. And while you could predict the inclusion of luxury companies and products such as Bang & Olufsen, Ferrari and Dom Perignon, social media giants Facebook, YouTube and [...]

A dash of Shoreditch reality

I don’t make any claims to be a Hoxton trendy, but this clip from Katy Brand’s Big Ass Show and loved how close it is to the experience of walking around my neighbourhood. Not that I’m knocking the indie “scene”, but love that Ms Brand shows them not to take themselves to seriously.

Living the life of luxury online…

While I was in the US earlier this year, I bought a copy of GQ magazine… not unusual, I normally get the British version… and was impressed to see that the contents appeared on page 82 of the issue. Advertisers taking up the first 81 pages included Prada, Dunhill, Breitling and David Yurman (who sells [...]

What the F**K is Social Media?

I LOVE this… it’s doing the rounds and is likely to send tonnes of traffic and social media loving to its creator, Martha Z. Kagan. According to Slideshare, this presentation has had 92 embeds… which is impressive, and makes this one number 93

In it for the long run

Here’s a nice post from Dave Fleet making the case for social media being like long distance running. He claims that with social media, “you need to put in a lot of work up-front – making connections, getting involved in the online communities and helping others, with what can sometimes feel like very little reward.

North Devon driving fun

Well, it’s not actually driving fun for me, it’s passenger fun.. which was nice. Anyway, I won’t tell this story, but basically instead of blogging for the last week, I’ve been busy creating a video from photos and footage from a glorious weekend in North Devon… what’s the social media angle? Well it’s UGC I [...]
