I suspect that there’s only one thing worse for Adriana than admitting she’s ill and that’s to have to endure several hours offline 🙂

In local news, 11 people are right now inside the court buildings and about to be charged with conspiracy to murder in connection with an alleged plot to bomb transatlantic flights. The Pimlico branch office here has been buzzed by helicopters all morning, so when I had a little slot in my schedule, I wandered…
Last week I spent a couple of days helping the Stormhoek guys out with their offering at the London Wine Fair. On the Thursday, I spent all day with Andrew Porton chasing round with a live video feed to a video-wall interviewing people on the stands for the official wine fair blog winefairlive.com. The first…
Not until I saw this: did I understand this, which was e-mailed to me earlier in the day…

London continues to welcome a stream of geek-beloved names. This Friday, 22nd July, Lee Wilkins has organised a special night with Jeremy Zawodny of Yahoo! [ sign up in the comments to Lee’s post on geekdinner.co.uk ] Lee sez: “Venue is the luxurious Bar Blanca, 3/4 Sherwood Street, London W1 [map]. We have hired out…
First, say “Happy Birthday Helen!” Now, even on her birthday she gives her friends something, she told me about this and I’m going to pass it on. If you’re a fan of Yo! Sushi, then for the price of some of your valuable personal information (no, nothing beyond the usual name, e-mail, birthday etc) you…
Funny pic. Dropped by because every time I log on to Facebook you’ve added another ten friends. You’re so hard to ignore I had to check out your blog again and find out what London’s top social media tart is saying.
Liked your comments on events and would be v interested to hear you talk more on this theme. You know I’m an event person and would welcome the debate. Get writing please.
PS what do you think about Rupert Murdoch selling MySpace to Yahoo? I know you smiled when I said I thought Facebook might be over, but I can’t help wondering if the genre is peaking. When the Murdochs sell their social media utility and buy the Wall St Journal, something’s in the wind.
Hi Pippa
I think the whole question of social networks is moving on to “how can we decentralise these things more” Facebook has a longer life than most I think but I also think it’s interesting to see which applications on the FB platform get the most use and how much they’re just interesting whimsies that we pass on and then forget about.
Also, I think that even if all of them peak and fade away we’ll be left with a different world than we had before, we’re going to get more networked, not less.
I will write more, I promise, just that I’m working on so many different things at the moment, it’s hard to find time to just sit & think & scribble.
Glad to hear you’re busy and good to hear that the general direction in social media is about decentralisation. Agree that we’ll be left with a different world and think you’re right about it being more networked, not less. It will be interesting to see what new shapes emerge.
