Social Media & Sports - 2012 Predictions →
If you missed this when I tweeted it a few weeks ago, I was asked by The UK Sports Network to outline my predictions for social media and sport in 2012. Take a read by clicking the link above (I’m the second one down).  I found it interesting reading through my fellow contributors comments. We overlap in quite a few areas!

“The goal of social media is to turn customers into a volunteer marketing army.”
– Many of those critical of marketing won’t agree with this statement, but word of mouth is the oldest and most trusted form of marketing - now it’s just online using social media instead.

“It’s not viral unless it is.”
– Anyone who reads my blog regularly will know how angry I get when people talk about viral videos before they have even been produced, released or more crucially before they have actually gone viral. Something can only be called viral in hindsight or whilst it is happening.

Do I look thin in this? As per the trend starting in 2011, netbooks have gone and been replaced by tablets leaving there a space for the ultrabook (an incredibly thin, highly portable, powerful laptop). Think Macbook Air type thinness with the power of a high end laptop. This HP Envy Spectre looks impossibly thin. I do love The Verge’s description: “Is it thinner than...

New Year's Resolutions
It comes to this time of year and the first thing people seem to ask is “What are your New Year’s resolutions?”. Life doesn’t work like that for me. I know plenty of the world like to use the calendar dates to start again as it were. That somehow seems like an excuse to me. It’s just a psychological thing. A way of saying, next year I will be better. Surely what makes...

Ben Brooks' Review Of The Verge: 9.4782829183 →
parislemon: I hate to sound like I’m incessantly ripping on The Verge — though, admittedly, I am — but Ben Brooks nails this.  Brooks’ takedowns of the two reviews hit cites are also dead-on. The Sphero is apparently good, okay, shitty. And the Galaxy Nexus 4G is awesome — except for the 4G part which makes it almost unusable. You know, the key feature of the device. Still, 8.7! Would it be a...
