It is very hard to make it happen.There is a huge gap between “loads of people interested” and “here is my money / time / commitment etc.” This is why it is hard to make it happen. Really hard. The first 60% is easy, this is why you should crack some skulls there before you […]
Why I nearly killed myself at Hubspot London
Ok I maybe wrong here. Maybe the whole day was not aimed at people like me. MAYBE it was aimed at people who have NEVER read a Hubspot e-book, blog or have only just discovered the internet. If I’d gone to this day two years ago I would have punched the organiser if I had […]
#globalsharingday – Final Cut Pro – House of Commons with Marks and Spencer’s
Our HUGE day rounded off at the House of Commons with a deliciously informal speaker session. We all crammed into one room and were treated to insights from a rapid fire line up. This picture here shows Mike Barry being interviewed. Who is Mike Barry? He is the very active Head of Sustainability for Marks […]
Sharing is the new rock ‘n’ roll
Sharing is the new rock ‘n’ roll. We now share our cars, our jobs and even our homes with others. Ahead of a world event to commemorate the practice, Metro asks how it became a phenomenon. ‘Share your sweets with your sister.’ ‘Share your presents with your friends.’ ‘Share your chips with me.’ We spend so […]

Going to see Seth
Suddenly it all seemed to fit into place. I’d been feeling very crap, lacking focus and felt overwhelmed all week, actually all month, maybe even all year. My head hurt, my body hurt and I just blurred out most days. I’d slipped into everything slightly being someone else’s fault, which even if it is someone else’s […]

Join us in Spring 2013 in San Francisco for a global gathering and cultural immersion in the sharing economy ecosystem and community. mesh2013 brings together the instigators — entrepreneurs, designers, city planners, engineers, makers, artists, doers, dreamers, proto-typers and futurists — those actively building products, services, policies, and communities.

I am loving the sharing.…
Ok so I accidentally got involved in a tech start up and found my self sharing rather than selling. I have always been crap at selling, mainly because somewhere in there you only really want to meet people who are going to buy your product or service. Me? I love people, I love bringing people […]
London Bloggers Meet Up – Blog or Tweet?
I am terrified to write this post in case @lesanto reads it and calls me up.It is not really that he is scary – I bet he is a teddy bear with a cup of hot chocolate really.It is that I know I could do better. When you get a room full of London Bloggers […]
TEDx and Music
So there we were half way through TEDx and it was all going well, then Marisa pops on stage and starts talking about music. I have recently been on a mission after discovering musomap via twitter, We needed something to pull together a section of Global Sharing Day and this was it. Funny what shows up when […]
Learning to share….
So there I was tweeting away and suddenly I’d fallen into building the sharing economy.Not single handedly of course – lots of faster, taller and smarter people with letters after their name started long before me. I was not looking for it, nor was I particularly mad about it. I joined Zip Car because I […]
Asana and Nimble
I am loving being an early-ish adopter. I certainly was not first but I am hanging in there even though not everything is perfect yet.I could jump onto a suite of salesforce.com products that do all of this but I am loving Asana for projects and Nimble for CRM – really social CRM. The only thing […]
The Email Game – Be Smart, be connected but be in control
I was sitting in a bar with my Bombay Sapphire and tonic when my good friend exclaimed (too proudly for my liking) “I get 100 work emails a day and another 60 to my personal emmail account.” I was nothing short of devastated FOR THE LOVE OF A HIGHER BEING!!! What are you doing? When […]
Dell B2B Huddle @ Microsoft
Mark and Simon listen intently at the B2B Huddle. My Social Media Week London got off to a brilliant start at this event hosted by Kerry Bridge and Neville Hobson.Ever since Microsoft brought Yammer I have started to glance a little more often in their direction. Then came Outlook.com, (something they could have done YEARS ago – easy for me to say from my armchair […]
Why SEO is Still F*Ck!n Cool
No-one loves social media marketing more that I do, I wrote a bloody book on it. BUT what I’d like to remind website business owners out there is that SEO or ‘search engine optimisation’ IS the free traffic auto-pilot that we all have wet dreams about.
