    A few social, search and mobile trends for 2012

      I am not usually a big fan of prediction posts, particularly when it comes to social, but recently spotted a handful of predictions by industry experts worth mentioning.   Without further ado, here are a handful interesting social, search and mobile trends for 2012. These 3 disciplines are inextricably interlinked, yet too often siloed, so I figured I would sum them all up in one...

    Blogfest 2011 - Topshop's smart Tumblr strategy

    Here is at long last, my first entry for the Bathroom Blogfest 2011 on how Topshop uses to Tumblr to 'climb out'. I do promise I'll put up a bathroom related post tomorrow for fun though! Here we go! Brands have embraced social media as a means to 'climb out' and 'hang out' with their fans on social networks.

    Using social content to drive sales through search

    There’s a very wrong assumption floating around the heads of many CMO’s and small business owners alike, that having a Facebook page and Twitter profile is enough, because social media is this new and wonderful thing which is going ‘to do wonders’ for your brand.

Thanks again to Andy Bargery for organising an awesome London Bloggers Meet Up last night, held at the brand new Talk Talk Experience Centre on Broadwick Street.

The Talk Talk Experience Centre, located in the heart of Soho is a convenient ‘Internet Centre’ for both Talk Talk customers and non-customers. How cool is that? Anyone can pop into the centre to use the net or recharge their phones.

If you’re a Talk Talk customer, you can make the most of their private lounge, or even book a meeting room for your client meetings; pretty awesome if you’re self-employed!

The Experience Centre is a great More >
