How to market to the Geeks is one of the most uncountdownable of conundrums. Data storage company Mozy seems to have hit the nobbly nail right on the head with its must-have haute couture: “BACK THE F:...

An old favourite, watch out for the expression on their families’ faces when they find out how much these audiophiles have spent!

I like the concept of Warholism. The term draws on Andy’s dictum that “In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes.”and I guess we’re now living in the future. One area that intrigues me is the extent and the way that Creatives such as Warhol and PK Dick, plus...
CEOs more 2.0 savvy than their managers...
It’s official, or at least as official as it gets – Economist Intelligence Unit interviewed 406 top bosses and found they were more attuned to social media benefits than their middle management. Or as the EIU puts it:

Byzantine routers made of clockwork...
Blogging platforms it seems to me, are currently like a 1,000 different networks where connections are made, are possible and obviously happen but appear to be made by the equivalent of Byzantine routers made of clockwork.

The BBC World Service featured an item on spam today (they couldn’t resist a song from Monty Python either) and took a tin of it to a London restaurant to be cooked up. They said it still tasted, well like spam.
Today must be Spamday as there’s a similar discussion on LinkedIn where Yvete ...
Borsalino...
Borsalino is a film I’ve had on my waiting list for quite some time and now the hats of the eponymous company are making their way back into fashion. Next fashion venture will be to track down a Borsalino Ivy cap in London.
For what caps are all about see this excellent article “Wear a Flat...
