I agree with Nick. Brexit is NOT SKILL

Someone has to say it, and looks like it is going to have to be me

Watch me sing!

Many people who don't me - and even some who do! - are often amazed to hear me sing. I get it all the time. "I never knew!" they say, all the time.

Well hear it yourself. This is recorded at a small after-hours venue in Rheims on my recent tour of France.

I enjoyed the evening immensely because a small club and an appreciative audience is what I look for when I'm performing – and I was very happy to find it. The rest of the tour was skill too.

Calling AOL (or similar)

If the price is right, I'm prepared to sell. I offer many new media synergies, some disaggregated, some not. Leave contact details in the comments. Thanks, bye.

More Bear Grylls ...

This guy's Twitter goes from skiller to skiller:

Behold the turtle, he makes progress only when he sticks his neck out! G'Night everyone!!

Update: I had no idea - literally, none - that I was rhyming just then. But I like it. Maybe I'll make rhyming my thing, like the other new media guys.

Tweet or blog - more on that Grylls social media strategy

The more I think about it, it appears that what Bear Grylls is up to is nothing less than an attempt to disaggregate new media synergies. I can't say I'm not impressed. Clever move there, Bear.

I'm no Bear Grylls

Whereas I use my blog to tell people to keep up with me on Twitter, Bear uses http://twitter.com/BearGrylls/statuses/9669932876 to tell people to keep with him on his blog. Interesting social media strategy there. I'll write more on that later.

Another star in the blogosphere

I don't point you blog readers to enough of the really skill stuff that is out there (that's more how I use twitter.com/seanclarke these days) but I'm making an exception for Tagtastic because it is written by one of my pals - and, really, what else is the social space for if not for good friends.

anyone kno if ustream has a maximum number of streams or other popularity limitation? planning to stream joke about man with orange for head

As you may notice, my English can be a little below the usual when I tweet. But remember - this is my internal monologue, not my polished Virgil or Dickens.

Visualisations

Visualisations will become very very big for journalists in the next 3-5 years. Remember, you heard it here first.
