Why I'm not a writer - YET

Ramsey has a blog post by Blog Tyrant that I make myself go back to every so often. "Why you are not a writer" is a list of what we do instead of writing. That list of important things like ‘getting set up to write’ that take longer to get ready than actual writing. I spent last week beating myself up a bit I because I set out to blog everyday in 2015. Blogging everyday is not going well, I write everyday but I don't post every day. I 'forget' or 'wait to finish' a post. Chose yourself The

Five Start-Ups I LOVE that are Crushing it....

I know there might be bigger, faster, stronger and more hip stuff going on, but for me this is where the fun is. I have seen these guys start, grow, fall over, get back up and - unlike many Start-Up founders - they LISTEN. 1.

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.

The day opened with a keynote from David Coplin, Microsoft's 'Search Evangelist' for here in the UK. I was about to

#wewillgather at Nesta

There I was again in a room with Lloyd Davis and a good idea being brought into action. The notion of #wewillgather started last year in the London Riots when Sophie posted a tweet about cleaning up. She went to bed and woke up to find people coming together to clean up. Silly things called #hashtags brought real people together to do real things. Right now in 2012 London and the UK is riding high on an Olympic games that swiped the Union Jack back from nasty Nick Griffin and a Paralympics that

#TAGtribe Blog IT out 'sourcing' the IN thing to do… by @craigcoutts

IT services for any sized business is core to the productivity of the company. If people are unable to use their computer applications efficiently; if email or network servers fail; or people don’t receive timely support, then ultimately the performance of the company suffers.   Outsourcing is a popular choice for small and medium sized companies that want a variable cost model for their business, rather than the fixed costs that hiring an in house IT department brings.

TAGtribe Blog by @remitaw The evolution of the PDA into the iPhone & Android devices...

The evolution of the PDA into the iPhone and Android devices is nothing short of miraculous – software developers have had a shot in the arm and are using all the connectivity they can to link location, times and dates, cameras, videos and much more to make life easier.    And, my word, what amazing labour-saving devices they have created. Here are just a few: ·         Expensify lets you take a photo of your receipt and creates your expense report from the scan; ·         Remember the
