Just for the record...

I have just have to write something today. I am on a train, it is ear split-tingly early and I was meant to be asleep. In fact I have an hour before I arrive and I really need a nap.

However travel is energising, I am looking out the window at the country rushing by and my brain won't stop working.

Part of it is that everyday this week I am doing a talk, they are all different settings but boy have I got lots to cover!

I am really, really looking forward to them all, mostly they are around the web, tech and education, the people I am "sharing the stage with" are some of my favourite people and I have noticed a massive difference in the zeal with which I am approaching them.

One of my talents that is getting sharper as we podcast is "riffing" and the skill of "riffing" comes from the insane amount of research that goes into each podcast and blog.
Please don't feel bad or too impressed, I love it! I am so hungry to hoover up information and make the connections between people and subjects and arguments and where things are going and where things have come from.

There is a little team of people poking and polishing the podcasts that makes them sharper and sharper. The real key is we are all keen to be constantly learning. Just for the record - I think that is what makes it so much fun!

The quick story is that after finally being out in touch with the CEO via a contact I was "heard". Then the problem was sorted in less than thirty minutes and by someone soooooo nice I want them to be Godmother to my next child. This is not really a "triumph" for me.

Should You Close or Keep Marketing Your Coworking Space Over the Holidays?

The Case for Taking a Holiday Break For coworking space operators in London, December is often a month of tough decisions. With the festive season in full swing, many wonder: “Should we shut down and take a break or keep pushing our marketing and communications to stay visible?” While closing and switching off for the holidays is tempting, there’s a compelling case for staying active — especially in a city where self-employed workers and freelancers rarely switch off entirely. Here’s a break
