From this Monday, I’m going to be hanging out (as full-time as I ever do such a thing) and working in the Euston co-working space atworkhubs with the lovely Philip Dodson and Bernie Mitchell.

I’ve got a few days this week in the best part of the country there is. At least that’s what Dudley Zoo looked like 50 years ago… I’m travelling up to Dudley on Wednesday morning and spending the afternoon with Lorna Prescott and friends and whoever else turns up at Gather Dudley at 65 High Street.

In November I decided to switch my Patreon to supporting a monthly collaboration journal called Tuttle Moonthly to be published on (or as near as poss to) the full moon. It’s been a great way of focusing myself on what I’m most interested in, where I’m actually at with collaborative work and thinking about what…

I’ve been talking about the “enemy within” since the time of the Brexit vote but the same thing applies to the current themes in American politics. My first reaction to these authoritarian men who whip up populist support at the cost of anyone who’s a little bit different is anger and hatred. And then I…
Image from SteemDB another great tool from @jesta I’m just looking at my first proper month of Steemit payments – it took me about a month to get used to the place and to get a feel for what works best (just a feel mind you, it’s still emerging). It also took time to gain…
As a person who enjoys programming and programming culture (I can’t call myself a programmer anymore) I love github. It’s amazing to me that open source software has taken such a hold on imaginations that there’s this open versioning system that allows you not only to read other people’s code but to report issues, suggest…
