A fine time was had by most last night at the Texas Embassy. Seth Godin gave a very generous speech and question and answer session, with the only proviso that questioners had to wear false long noses as seen on the cover of his latest book “All marketers are liars” (Can you tell he’s in…
Wow, 11th July came round quickly – so tonight it’s back to the Texas Embassy again for a night of overexcited chatter and fajitas in the company of another blogging celebrity. A slightly different crowd tonight for Seth Godin than the Scoble affair (though the coolest people are those who make both) More marketing types…
The first Perfect Path podwalk on the streets of London since the explosions on the transport system yesterday, 7th July. My small contribution to “business as usual”. I take a bus from Waterloo up to Holborn (apologies for the cut, I didn’t feel comfortable talking on the bus, nor did I feel comfortable about feeding…
Today I will, like many other Londoners, just get on with what I do. I found it hard to write anything much yesterday – shock and fear. I don’t know how much I’ll manage to share with you today, just take it one step at a time. This morning I’m keeping two pieces of wisdom…
Very glad that I’m not in Central London this morning. At least one explosion confirmed so far on or near a bus outside the BMA in Tavistock Place (confused about whether it’s there or Russell Square). Reports of the double decker bus having the top ripped off. Hearing about two other possible explosions on buses….

Here’s an audioblog from Sunday afternoon. I walked along the south-west side of the Serpentine, starting off just past the Lido. You’ll hear Canada geese and possibly moorhens as well as the usual varieties of tourist to be found in Hyde Park on Sunday. It’s a kind of pause for breath after the spurt of…
Alex Bellinger (he of the excellent SmallBizPod – small business podcast, inventor of simultaneous podcasting and owner of a hairy wotsit) has a new personal blog called Verbalism. I think it’s personal in the sense that it’s not the smallbizpod business blog as I haven’t seen anything (yet) about Alex’s cat, crushes on his English…
Johnnie Moore puts out a great podcast conversation with Chris Corrigan and Rob Paterson about “unconferences” David Wilcox asks “Why aren’t events about engagement more engaging?” And Doug Kaye announces his intention to extend IT Conversations I put all of this together with what I’ve experienced in presenting my part of the results of BARC,…
Peter Martin of Junkk.com is blogging. A couple of weeks ago, he hardly knew what a blog was. Then he took his company to Internetworld and while on the stand got talking to Geoff Jones and came and heard my talk on blogging & marketing. I could tell he got it, but wasn’t sure if…
