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 🙂

Just saw this ascii-movie pointed to by Piers in Euan‘s comments. It made my heart sing. The first piece of ascii art I ever saw was in the early 70s – a picture of Racquel Welch that my father and his colleagues had printed – dunno who did the ‘digitising’. I seem to remember it…
It’s November again. Shit, how did that happen? So it’s time for this again. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG62qcOZK2M] Sorry, I can’t help myself. Seems Rupert, Mike, James and Dan are all having a go too.
At least one cheer for the speed of delivery on the UK version of Google Maps – I thought it would take much longer. Viewing maps is fine, but some of the search results are still quirky to say the least and when I look for Whitehall I don’t expect either of these Trouble is…
I can’t embed it here because of wordpress.com rules, but here’s a link to some video from Charles Frith of some of what I facilitated at Interesting2007 Video: Interesting 2007 Also, don’t know if I linked but here are the slides I would have used, if I’d used slides.
This conversation is getting interesting – but it’s still the “phoney war”. A couple of hours after I posted on Odeo yesterday, I got a mail from David Janes at BlogMatrix suggesting I try out his new tool Sparks! (not my exclamation mark!) which is an integrated podcatcher, rss aggregator, blogging tool, media player and…

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.
