I was reading the British Mission / Consule / Embassy web-site earlier and they have stated that Visa authorisations are only taking 2 weeks at the moment.  This is great news given I thought they were going to take as long as 6.  With a little bit of luck, we will be

Move preparations

We are fortunate in having organised Amanda and Greg (friends from school) to house sit for us and look after Molly.  While there is still a lot of organisation, we don’t have to completely empty the house.  I think it’s an arrangment that suits both of us as

1000 Monkeys Clicking Cameras

A resurgance once again in the local press about the wisdom, or lack of it, in crowds. I’ve posted here about this a little, and that was added to very eloquently by Chris Saad of Particle who pointed out that media is additive. There is place for both wise

The gatekeeper Vs. the storming hordes

Bernard Lunn commented on my last post  that when it comes to Enterprises and Start-Ups, we are thinking along similar lines.  His second post on his blog B2B media 2.0 and globalization is a well thought out discussion along similar lines, but with some minor differences

What start-ups should know about Enterprises…

…and why start-ups should want to play with them. Chris commented on my “Are you hearing me? Who needs a new metric post?” regarding my position that an Attention gathering standard (and more specifically an Attention Engine) would be ideal for Enterprises. He made the valid points that

Are you hearing me? Who needs a new metric?

Chris posted on the need for a new metric which could supplement traditional page-view metrics.I’m going to add to the call-to-arms from the Enterprise point of view. The ability to understand not just what people click on, but the attention they give to elements of the new,

Syndication in the Enterprise — it’s not all about you

The pressure is on to find an RSS / News solution for the Enterprise. But it’s not coming from the users (I think this is because users that want RSS just install their own client anyway).Every time it’s been raised internally in the last couple of years

Digital Narcissm: Is blogging playing with yourself?

In the real world where people don’t live on-line 24 hours a day, with their internet connection at least as vital as Oxygen, I regularly come across people who display some unusual traits. 1. They don’t blog. 2. They don’t read blogs. 3. They often read “papers”

Top 10 ways to spot a Web 2.0 site

In trying to explain Web 2.0 to work colleagues and explaining why it’s different from Web 1.0, I’ve created this easy to use “spotters” guide of features based on the reading and research I’ve been doing. It’s a bit tounge in cheek (not your

Organisational Oversteer
