Allowed out in public
It seems it’s my time to go conference bananas this month. On Saturday 18th I’m doing one of my trademark open space lite sessions at Podcastcon UK which is being held quite inappropriately, I’m sure you’ll agree in an old meat market (it’s actually really nice, I have had a look). I had hoped to…
See “All of Me” at Hub Westminster, Feb 7th
Vinay Gupta has asked me to contribute to his "Truth & Beauty" strand at Hub Westminster next week. He asked for something both pro- and retro-spective and something that showed more than one facet of what I do, have done, and probably will do when I get round to it, perhaps.

Framing what I do (again)
I applied for a job a week or so ago (I know!) As part of that I had to update my CV. I’ve become a bit stupid about that, thinking I somehow didn’t need a CV, that my Linked-in profile was good enough, given I’m a forward-thinking social web geezer. Stupid, not only because you…

It’s really an amazing thing that Martyn did – getting 10 muso’s together who’d never met before and holding a space for us to collaborate and make something in such…
First go at importing to wordpress.com from posterous
So I had a go and made a new copy at http://mostinteresting2.wordpress.com WordPress.com has an importer for posterous (look under Tools in your WP.com dashboard). I chose to test it with mostinteresting since each post should follow a fairly standard structure and it should be straightforward to see where things don’t show up the way…
Hah! I wasn’t expecting that. I thought the building in the first video was a construction site, not a demolition site. And, like you say, you expect all development to be more office blocks.
This kind of thing couldn’t happen in London any more. I wonder how it happens in Berlin. What kind of argument is made for it that manages to hold its own against the religion of economic progress?
