I have not done anything all day. Quite literally I am too excited to move. Tomorrow #Babybernie and I are off to Italy to a magical little place called “The Rural Hub” for the OuiShare Summit #7. Around 70 of us from all over the world will sit around and collectively discuss, decide and vote […]
Do the work (slight return)
What is that Publicate thing? At least three people have asked me in the last few hours. Then last week as I hurriedly threw together my newsletter for the 20th time in Publicate,I thought I’d mention it, mainly as Chris, the founder, is a mate and also is launching the paid product after getting funding […]
I loved this! – Linkedin Out Loud!
Film and Creative company Joseph Joseph cherry-picked real quotations from millions of Linkedin profile summaries and invited actors to read them out loud. LinkedIn – OUT LOUD! (part 1) youtube.com “There is only one boss. And his name is Mr. Customer!” “Anyone can make money. But it takes a special set of skills […]
Falling off the toilet.
This became funny when my mate Thom reminded me that Elvis had died on the toilet. I am never sure why toilets and dying are funny. They always make me smile and when used on direct conjunction with each other I laugh out loud. If that does not make you smile hopefully my “Iggy Pop” […]
Educate, Entertain and Inspire…. #LLBS
I am so knee deep editing blog and podcast content that today’s #LLBS update is running behind. I was thinking about the things that have inspired me and what the point of the whole shebang is, Bill Hicks has always made me think and there are more links to people below. This is what popped […]
Falling Towards Argentina #01
I was air drumming to INXS ‘Devil Inside’ very loudly and getting worried that my trousers would not make it through the day. The September sun was pouring in the window and I was really excited as I had just been invited to join this thing called “Gmail” – Oh and I was going to […]
Whenever I feel like writing I lie down until the feeling goes away…. (NOT!)
So I have been reading and reading and reading and reading and now I know too much. So I have to be killed. Well that is how it feels in my head. I have just whipped out my ipad to write this blog as a way of getting started writing today. All that is needed […]
Get Your Shit Together Mitchell.
So reader I married him. Tweet me back if you know the book that line is from. (If you are in London, I’ll buy you a BulletProof coffee and you can ask me anything.) I can never decide where to start and that is the issue. I thought if I nicked someone else line it […]
Am I Really a Successful Blogger?
This is going somewhere, please stick with me. So doing the working out loud thing is become more solid for me. Posting what ‘one’s blog’ is making is a daring way of making it work and offering something for people to follow and hopefully collaberate and chip in with advice and comments too. I am […]
Seven Groovy Things That Make @90Mainyard my #coworking home
I have been living at 90Mainyard for well over two years now. I found my bubble of coworking bliss via Alex Butlers Kindred HQ Meet Up and have never looked back. The peace and quiet of this place played a significant roll in me scrabbling out of depression and into embracing podcasting and blogging with […]
It was just one of those days.
It was just one of those days. Last year, in fact for about three years I’d wake up and just could not do it. I’d set off in a whirl and hope for the best. Now I am a bit clearer where I am going and if I am sailing into uncharted territory it […]
Five things that are working well for me this week #101
1. Grass Fed Irish Butter in my coffee. Ok there is a little bit more to this. On Dave Asprey’s BulletProof food plan your breakfast is a big mug of high grade coffee served with grass fed butter and MCT oil (High grade coconut Oil) this is all blended together to produce a delicious, rich […]
Why a Mailchimp email is better than a Facebook page
I am always getting a kick in from people about emails. I don’t like WORKING in email – it is a time suck and a closed loop. Where as tools like Trello, Asana and the amazing Slack allow open and transparent collaborative communication. My point today is about email lists – I call mine my […]
Mile End vs Bernie World
I am on the way home and have been walking through a part of my life that I have not seen for a while. Three or four “Bernie Worlds” collided tonight in a really good way. Every time I am around the stretch of London that runs from Brick Lane to Mile End I get […]
Loomio
So I have been getting a bit of flack from people about my no-email post from earlier in the week. I want to explain my position in a little more detail. Tools I work with other people with are: loomio – for open collaborative decision making. Around forty of us make decisions in an open […]
