    Interview with a Flickr A-Lister: meet Paola Cermak

    A few months ago, I blogged about falling out of love with Flickr, as I felt Yahoo! had failed to keep up with the rapidly changing social media landscape, and Flickr users' needs (no Twitter/Facebook integration, lack of innovations within the platform, no status updates but to name a few). I am a huge fan of the Flickr community and I still post occasional photos on my basic Flickr account, which allows me to...

  • One Day Project: 3 iPhone developers, 3 games, just $100

    With over 90,000 apps in the App store, getting your app noticed can be a bit of challenge. So the 3 developers at Tiny White Tribe decided to add a little excitment in the whole marketing of their app, and came up with One Day Project (ODP) concept. They spent the $100 on essentials such as Redbull, beers, snacks and ice-cream, and created 3 iPhone games in just 3 days. That's only 24 hour per game; pretty...

    Coach are no strangers to social media, having accumulated an impressive fan base on Facebook and Twitter, and a small army of bloggers who frequently write about their products and campaigns. Their latest social media experiment, The Coach Poppy Project, is by far the smartest thing I've seen in social media year, and I am thrilled to be part of it. Have you spotted the pretty Poppy banner on the left...

    Foursquare: A Missed Opportunity for Businesses in London

    This is a guest post written by my good friend and fellow Social Media practitioner @GuillaumeFoutry Foursquare, the location based social game, has taken over the social media world.  Given that, you would think that businesses in London – the Twitter capital of the world and a European technological hub – would jump on the band wagon and use it.  But they seem surprisingly reluctant to try it.

I’ve fallen out of love with Flickr…

I have been a Flickr Pro user for a number of years, but recently decided not to renew my Pro account. Flickr was the place where I kept my travel shots, but also indulged in a little macro photography now and again.

It’s been a little quiet on here over the past week or so… I am not entirely sure whether it’s writer’s block, lack of time (perhaps inspiration), or maybe all of the above. I can’t even be asked to Tweet!

I’ll be back for sure when I have something good to More >

I was one of the lucky few Foursquare users who  recently received an invite to download their Beta Blackberry app. The Foursquare mobile site seriously sucks, and the app makes it easy and fun to ‘check in’, find out where my friends are but also get recommendations from fellow Foursquare More >
