An interesting perspective on blogging from Michael Gartenberg of Juipter research. He talks about the differences in organisational culture and industry and how this impacts blogging. (thanks to Scoble again). However having spent the last day and half at the People in Business conference and seeing the response to the SurfControl session I am nowContinue reading “Are you afraid to blog?”

Ikea, Volvo and HR?
Today was day 1 of the People in Business conference, while I will not give you a complete run down of the first day I want to share a couple of things. The first key note was very good, I must say I was skeptical, based on reading the brochure. The topic was “Energy, trustContinue reading “Ikea, Volvo and HR?”
Jonathan ate Kangaroo!
Sun’s CEO Jonathan Schwartz was in Australia last week, he writes about his visit and seems to have taken a liking to a portion of our national coat of arms. Well, good on him, kangaroo is fantastic, and with the over population of them if he feels inclined to eat a couple good.
No False Positives

TGIF
Well then end of another interesting week. I have not had a chance to blog everything that I have been doing in the last couple of weeks, just too many exciting things. In summary, in reverse order:- Been following Web 2.0 on Feedster, some very cool stuff coming out. Playing with IPodder (all I needContinue reading “TGIF”
Another one bites the dust (Maybe)
Steve Rubel has an interesting item about a Delta Airline’s flight attendant who has been suspended for Photo Blogging. You just cannot be to careful what you do on your blog.
