The Sup3rBrands 2012 report is out
Here’s an eager blog i wrote about the amusing 2011 list.
Sup3rBrands is a shady organisation much like the Bilderberg Group.
If you read through their site, they appear to do tireless work helping to organise companies into an order.
The benefits are unclear, hugely unclear. You end up having Marmite next to Bosch, next to The Royal Albert Hall.
Last year i poked fun at this stupid thing, and i...
Klout Partners with Badgerville →
Klout + Badgeville = Badgelot.
When I first started highlighting the idiocy of Klout, I didn’t think that they would partner with a company called Badgeville. I thought Badgeville was a Zynga game where you collected badges, and the sparkly badges cost more money. What i like to call a ‘badgemium’ model.
“But why did Klout, a tool ….need the help of...

Neil Young: Cow Palace 1986 (Live) Review
Something intensely STRANGE has happened.

A few years ago, Thom Gibbs managed to find a gig Neil Young played at Cow Palace, Daly City CA on 21 November 1986. The gig appeared to be the greatest gig Neil Young could ever play, mainly for playing an...
In Praise Of Tim Montgomerie
Two relatively exciting things have happened the past week, in relation to Conservative Home and its editor Tim Montgomerie.
POINT 1:
Montgomerie, who is a practising Christian (think “High Church” not BONKERS BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN), wrote in favour of gay marriage which was excellent! And very unexpected. He’s been bashed by his previous chums in a Tory Christian group he set up...
Tumblr Develop A Revenue Stream
“Highlight This Post” option.
This is quite exciting in lots of ways. Have i missed something? Was this announced last week and i’ve missed it? It’s massive!
Social Media Conference Describes Journalism
This article
This article struck me as someone who could be talking about journalism in general, at any point in the last 100 years. I think it’s from a conference on social media, and the article is written by a social media expert. All of the points made can be applied to journalism as opposed to social media concerns.
My general point is: why did this talk happen, and what value does it...
Siamese Dream (Deluxe Edition) →
[All links are Spotify]
The extras are amazing. If you too think Siamese Dream is top 5 albums of all time then you will really enjoy the extras. Special “call outs” to Ache (Silverfuck Rehearsal Demo), Luna (Apartment Demo), well it’s all great.
Don’t be worried: this is not a completist’s wet dream it’s just brilliant. This is not hand on chin, contemplating...
