Berocca are giving away some ‘blogger relief’ packs….which I guess will contain tubes of their vitamin-c loaded craziness (I love those buggers when I’m suffering from a cold – or jetlag), and some other groovy stuff.
I stuck my name down…might get something nice for free!
Logged on to Facebook this morning – and found I had a new design for the Homepage
Everything looks a lot more spaced out – more white space – and the news feed feels much more prominent on the left had side, the sidebar is now on the right and again feels a lot less cluttered – what is interesting, is that there are NO ads on the screen outside the news feed… I have no idea what that means to to the people selling them.
Overall – I like the design – I think you can force it for yourself by clicking this link.
What are the 100 iconic images that define Britain? For me, the phone boxes above are a fantastic symbol of Great Britain – but what is it for you? Geoff Hurst? Stonehenge? Chavs? Tea and Scones?
Whatever it is – you can vote for the most iconic images (and even submit your own) and win prizes over at the MSN created Iconic Britain competition.
Extraordinary photography – whilst shooting a wedding in Sichuan province, China, the earthquake that devastated that area struck, the full series of photographs are unbelievably poignant.
If you are not using Twitter yet, then maybe now is time to take a look at the application that seems to continue to cause quite a buzz on the web. Twitter is classed as a micro-blogging application, effectively tracking the small pieces of information that previously might fly point-to-point on IM or be posted as a short blog entry. If you are using Facebook – then its like the ‘so-and-so is…’ feature, on steroids.
So – why should you be using Twitter – here are five of my top reasons:
Steve Claytons post on Twitter has some really interesting debate on how Twitter is becoming more and more mainstream, and eventually may become the new facebook. I’m looking forward to seeing what else Steve has to say on Twitter – and if he needs anyone inside Microsoft to bounce ideas off – I’m two floors down from him!
So – my suggestion is that you get over to Twitter, sign up and then add me to your list – I’d love to hear what’s going on.
Blogs seem to be popping up everywhere to keep a track of whats happening on Facebook (and its platform) – its early days, so I’m not sure how they’ll fare – but here are three of the first I’ve seen:
Oh, and if you are wondering what facebook is – where have you been? Facebook is the latest social network phenomenon, adding users like its going out of fashion. I tell everyone its like a myspace, without the ugly.
I’m over here on Facebook – add me as a friend if you want!
If you like your DJ mixes – you could do a lot worse than checking out discobelle.net - this is a standout music blog that highlights some of the best DJ mixes that I’ve ever heard, alongside some really cool and sometimes odd remixes - I specifically recommend the Kid Fresh mix they posted recently which is awesome set of eclectic tunes, really well mixed with an old school cut and paste style which really lends itself well to the selection. Great Stuff!
