For the last couple of years I’ve presented at the “Digital Shorts” events in Manchester and sometimes Leeds (but this year ‘and Brighton’).
The events – organised by Econsultancy and regional partners – are an opportunity for digital marketers and ecommerce folk to meet for drinks and discussion based around a review of the Christmas/2008 trading [...]
It’s been a busy time on the speaking front of late.
I started the week in Paris speaking at the ACSEL event on social media in eCommerce and then in London for the inaugural eConsultancy.com Alumni evening. Slides from both evenings are available on Slideshare by following the links to the blog posts.
In the next couple [...]
I’ve been uphappy for a while with digital. Slow, clunky cameras with glacial shutter lag and battery dependency, or an SLR format with bulk and battery dependency. The closest I’ve gotten of late to that portable, inconspicuous ‘city snapper’ feel is the estimable (but slow) Canon G9.
While pondering over an upgrade to the Canon G10 [...]
These my micropostings and bookmarks – January 15th through January 22nd:
TheBrain.com – About TheBrain – Hyperbolic Tree navigation and association returns! 9 years after seeing some nice examples move from PARC to production here's another one.
recycled composting instant desk mini bin : Inventoids – Wonderful! Another great idea from the fertile Inventoids mind. This [...]
Came across this ad the other day – couldn’t believe the language used. Not sure if the client approved this, the sub-editor was drunk or the recruiter really hated the client.
Names have been removed to protect the guilty. What does this say of the firm or the client?

Numbered CCTV is one thing (a la Westminster’s unique parking location references (UPLs?)) but texting incidents is a step further.
The cynic in me wonders if this means that the [...]

Bride's advert for wedding guests – a new franchise idea?? (BBC NEWS | UK | England | London) – Why stop at this? Surely, there's a business here? A sort of modern 'rent-a-friend'.
Service extensions could involve an in-depth advance interview with the bride [...]
Twitter / Neal Preece
Well, I’ve read too many 2009 predictions and resolutions and am thoroughly sick of them. Then I came across Neal’s thought on Twitter and it made me laugh: had to share it – my favourite pronouncement of 2009…
“I’ve thought long and hard, and have decided on my New Year’s resolutio n. 1024×768.”
Classic.
These my micropostings and bookmarks – December 27th through January 6th:
Internet Retailing – recruitment – One sales manager and two editors please.
Mind bites – a set on Flickr – Neat collection of illustrated aporisms and research findings – all dying to be powerpointed, but check the copyright since most are fully reserved. Pity.

Inspired by a nice ‘we’ll be closed’ sign in Tossed on Baker Street just before Christmas I spent some wandering time looking at how shops signal their opening/closed times to customers over Christmas.
This photoset is a selection of snaps from time wandering in Shoreditch, Brick Lane, Spitalfields and Columbia Road.
This one from [...]

We decided not to slob this New Year’s Day and so made a picnic and headed out to walk in St James’ Park. The idea was to have the park to ourselves, no traffic, free parking and a bracing run around then humble picnic (since of course nothing’d be open).
Wrong!
